Clavicus Vile and his worshippers

So from what I can tell, most princes seem to both embody a concept, and seek to foster that same concept in their followers.

Hircine is the hunter, and wants his followers to hunt as well. Namira is the lady of rot, and wants her followers to be nasty also. Molag Bal is the lord of domination, and wants his followers to dominate the weak in his name. Sheogorath doesn’t take his meds and doesn’t want you to either. Peryite is the flu dragon and wants you to be sick. Mephala is the patron goddess of form fitting black leather and lies, and expects you to behave the same. The list goes on and on, with relative consistency.

Clavicus Vile is the prince of dark pacts and faustian deals. Doesn’t that mean he should want his followers to be like, loan sharks or something? I feel like just we mostly see him tricking his worshipers into these shitass bargains. Is he stupid?
