The last rays of the sun still glow in the horizon when you hear lightning crackle and stone grind against stone. A sorcerer approaches.

You know what Skyrim really lacks?

Summons and variety

In Conjuration they are pitiful amount of Daedra summon there is in total

Flame Atronach

Frost Atronach

Storm Atronach

Dremora lord

And that's it, a truly pitiful amount and now let's compare to oblivion

Scamp

Flame Atronach

Frost Atronach

Storm Atronach

Dremora

Dremora lord

Clanfear

Daedroth

Spider daedra

Xivilai

You SEE THE ISSUE?

there is such a lack of the variety and choice

But let's give Skyrim it's best chance and add dlcs and creation club

And in that case the list goes

Skyrim

Flame Atronach

Frost Atronach

Storm Atronach

Dremora lord

Seeker

Dremora merchant

Dremora butler

Golden saint warrior/archer

Dark seducer warrior/archer

Staada

Daedric horse

Oblivion

Scamp

Flame Atronach

Frost Atronach

Storm Atronach

Clanfear

Dremora lord

Dremora

Spider daedra

Daedroth

Xivilai

Hungers

Flesh Atronach ( Which while also very necromantic has a Daedra in so it counts)

Golden saint

Dark seducer

Even with DLC and the creation club it's such a big downgrade, while I love being able to summon two things in Skyrim I wish the options to pick from to make full use of it.

Also I didn't mention any necromancy here because both games did it pretty well, Skyrim with actually being able to revive bodies early on and oblivion with its vast options of skeletons,zombies, ghosts and even lichs, Skyrim even adds 19 new necromantic summons (including a fucking bone Colossus, ESO sweep) with DLC and creation club and a bonewolf pet and a skeleton forge, but to be fair if I'm.count the bonewolf then I should count the manic and Demented elytra Nymphs ( wait are elytra Daedra?)

Either way my point is that simplification of the magic system in Skyrim has caused lack of depth in more ways than just mysticism being taken outback and being shot and spell-crafting with it.

So yeah more Daedra please todd

Spriggans and Flame Atronachs are very good designs, and I love them, and they are lesbians and they should date and like maybe also its a polycule with the Wispmothers too. And the storm atronach and frost atronach are gay dating too, boy kissers if you will.

I'm just trying to take a nice picture, and the Flame and Frost Atronach insist on trying to kill each other...

Atronachs

[No image this time because I didn't want to poorly edit the primary three types together.]

In-Game Lore

Elemental Daedra, better known as Atronachs, are a subtype of Daedra that are highly intelligent and show little to no kinship or loyalty to any Daedric Prince.

The most well-known subtypes are Flame, Frost, and Storm; other variants include Air Atronachs, Ash Guardians, Fire Daedra, Frost Daedra, Iron Atronachs, Shadow Atronachs, and Stone Atronachs. There are minor types, but these don't have much lore to them. For the purpose of this post, we'll be focusing on the three most well-known ones.

Flame Atronachs are native to Infernace and are considered the weakest of the three primary types. They often levitate (which allows them to go over water safely), are immune to Fire and Poison damage (in Oblivion), and are weak to Frost damage (in Oblivion). They have a hatred for Frost Atronachs but can put this aside when serving a mutual master. They are a source of Fire Salts.

Frost Atronachs are native to an unnamed part of Oblivion. They can breathe underwater (in Skyrim), can self-heal (in Oblivion), are immune to Frost and Poison damage (in Oblivion), and are weak to Fire damage (in Oblivion). The hatred of Flame to Frost Atronachs is shared in the reverse, with the same caveat to put it aside. Their names often begin with "Nomeg". They are a source of Frost Salts.

Storm Atronachs are native to Levinace and are considered the strongest of the three primary types. They are largely unorganized and chaotic and are found in many Daedric realms. They can levitate like Flame Atronachs (thus can go over water safely), are immune to Shock, Poison, and Paralysis (all in Oblivion), and have a lot of health and little that they're weak to. They are a source of Void Salts.

Pop Culture Witchcraft

It has been proposed by @mothmaam that you can summon an Atronach as a familiar and provides a spell to do so (linked in the sources). Following this idea, you could also shape thoughtforms or servitors to look and work like Atronachs do.

You could also call upon them as experts in their field of magic - fire and heat-based spells for Flame Atronachs, cold-, frost-, and ice-based spells for Frost Atronachs, and lightning-, storm-, or thunder-based spells for Storm Atronachs. These spells don't have to be baneful magic, but these would best fit if you were casting spells associated with the Destruction school of magic. This includes all forms of baneful magic, energy work, protection, shadow work, sigils, wards, and weather magic (Flame for sun, Frost for snow, and Storm for rain).

Y’all aren’t ready for this take, but flame atronachs are masc and ice atronachs are femme. Storm atronachs are non-binary and simply identify as a threat.
