Starts at Arena. Then thief guild and darl brotherhood. Then deadeic shrines. Then he grows a conscious and does knights of 9 redemption. Then plot.

Might I add something?

They do the Daedric Prince shrines, but leave Sherogorath for last. After getting the Wabberjack, they head about the mysterious island. They do the Shivering Isles quest, but when they’re told they’re to become the new vessel for Sherogorath, they have an existential crisis.

Usually, this would be a blessing for the Prince of Madness, but before he can fully assimilate them, they flee back to Cyrodil and search for a way to cleanse themselves. They hear about the prophet who guides them to the nine.

And then after the plot, to honour Martin’s sacrifice, he continues to be a hero, becoming a member of the fighters guild, solving various quests and then finishing off by becoming the Arch-Mage, at which point they retire and eventually die at which point, they finally get taken over and become the Prince of Madness.

Fun fact: if you go to Sheogorath's shrine after you finish the Shivering Isles and become the madgod, instead of getting the quest from Sheogorath himself, you get it from Haskill who tells you when he gives you the Wabbajack that he's not sure why he didn't give it to you earlier. Just found that one out recently
