Lore:Gauldur Amulet

Lore:Bittercup

The   (or Bitter Cup ) is an artifact sacred to  , the   of Bargains. It is prized by the Daedra Lord's followers. Only the strongest of the Emperor's servants are advised to make covenant with Prince Clavicus, and even then are warned against sipping from the Bittercup.  

At some point, the Bittercup came into the possession of a wielder of the Vampiric Ring, a War-Wizard that lived in the ancient tower of   on an island in  . This War-Wizard eventually passed away, and his skeleton continued to live on in the tower, guarding the Bittercup. 

In the late Third Era, the Camonna Tong allied themselves with the Fighters Guild Master in Vvardenfell, Sjoring Hard-Heart. The alliance used the Fighters Guild as an extension of the Camonna Tong's influence, hunting down and eliminating the struggling Thieves Guild to prevent them gaining a foothold in Vvardenfell.  Circa  , the leader of the local   chapter, Gentleman Jim Stacey, allied himself with the Fighters Guild's former guildmaster, Percius Mercius, in order to put a stop to the corruption. Using the information Percius provided to him, he sent the Nerevarine to Ald Redaynia to retrieve the Bittercup in an attempt to use it to bribe Eydis Fire-Eye, one of Sjoring's supporters. The Nerevarine slew the War-Wizard guarding the Bittercup, and recovered both artifacts from the ruins. 

Circa  , a Nord mage named Rulnik Wind-Strider came upon a mysterious altar at the Roadside Ruins north of Falkreath. There, he met an old woman who appeared to be its keeper. She explained that he needed to choose a bowl from the altar: the first would grant him power, the second would bring him fortune, and the third would offer nothing at all.  Stricken with ataxia, Rulnik continued on his journey after this encounter, but ended up in the care of the Temple of Kynareth in Whiterun.  The Last Dragonborn subsequently came across the same altar by following Rulnik's trail, although it is unknown which bowl was chosen or whether Rulink's illness was cured. Regardless, the Dragonborn was given the Bittercup by Clavicus Vile as a reward for having made a choice.

Lore:Ice Blade of the Monarch

The   (or simply the Ice Blade)  is a claymore prized by Tamrielians. Using the soul of a Frost Monarch, the Archmage   of the Summerset Isles  enchanted the claymore of the great warrior  ,  who attempted to use it to commit regicide in some distant land, and become the new ruler. The assassination failed and Almion Celmo was imprisoned. The sword freezes all who feel its edge, and goes from owner to owner, never settling for long.  

In  , the Imperial Cult tasked the oracle Adusamsi Assurnarairan with recovering the Ice Blade from Llaren Terano, a worshipper of Molag Bal that was located in the Dunmer stronghold of Rotheran. The bandits there created an arena that housed slaves, which included Adusamsi once she was captured. The   was sent to rescue her, as well with tasked with recovering the artifact, leading to the bandits extermination, as well as the freedom of the captives.  The Nerevarine subsequently sold it to the Mournhold Museum of Artifacts in  . 

The Ice Blade would later come into the possession of Holrik Frost-Sword, a renowned swordsman. Circa  , Holrik came into a heated argument with Grenwulf the Brawler, a pugilist with the Fists of Randagulf. Seeking to settle their dispute and showcase their artifact and fighting styles to be superior, the two figures took on a quest to slay a local arachnid that had nested nearby at Cronvangr Cave. Three weeks had passed, and the ambiguity of their fates led the Last Dragonborn to investigate. Amidst the webbed victims were the corpses of the two, whose bickering caused the end of them. The two manifested as restless spirits, finally banding together to put an end to their executioner. Lending their aid, the Last Dragonborn slew the brood mother, helping put the spirits to rest, leaving the Ice Blade and the Fists to be claimed.

After the beast was slain, the source of its vampiric abilities was discovered; the Vampiric Ring lay within alongside the remains of a vampire. The ring was recovered from the creature's insides.

Lore:Skull Crusher

The Skull Crusher (also spelled Skull-Crusher) is an amazingly large and powerful warhammer created together by the wizard,   and the great weaponsmith,   of Skyrim,  in the forge of Anudnabia sometime in the early First Era,  during the  .  The creation of this weapon is riddled in magic, such as the fires it was forged in and the steel that was tempered for it. It is incredibly light but hard, which provides for its deadly blows compared to those of a Daedric Prince.  The artifact was intended to be used as an attraction for a local festival, but it was stolen beforehand. However, a curse was unleashed so Skull Crusher would betray the unlawful,  and so that it would search Tamriel for its creators.  

It is uncertain when either Dorach or Hilbongard died, but they were both in attendance at the wake of Mordrin Hanin, which took place several years later in the First Era. Here many other attendees died from Hanin's deadly drink. But it is unknown if they were among them.  Regardless of their fate, the artifact returned to the place of its creation, and in  , an acolyte of the Imperial Cult was sent to retrieve it. Since the lower levels of Anudnabia have long since been closed off, the acolyte traversed through the   and entered Anudnabia's forgotten vaults. They recovered the Skull-Crusher from a chest above the forge of Hilbongard and returned it to the Imperial Cult in Castle Ebonheart.  Later that year, the warhammer was sold to Torasa Aram, who put it on display in her Museum of Artifacts in Mournhold. 

Sometime after worship of the Tribunal as gods was deemed as heretical by the New Temple,   one cult of Almalexia worshippers constructed a hidden temple in a cave on Solstheim known as Ashfall's Tear, just north of Raven Rock. The Ashfall's Tear cult gathered and preserved many relics from Morrowind in the temple's armory, including Skull Crusher. Circa  , the Last Dragonborn was alerted to the cult's existence when they attempted to recover several additional artifacts. It is unknown if the Dragonborn agreed to help the cult or if it was wiped out.  Regardless, Skull Crusher and other relics were retrieved from the armory, and this arsenal was used to defeat remnants of the Sixth House   led by the Dunmer Erden Relvel, who became a priest of Dagoth Ur after becoming corrupted by his mask.

When King   himself possessed the Coffer, the supply within was limitless. Orgnum lost the coffer in a marine battle against Emperor Antiochus Septim. The results of this loss supposedly caused Pyandonea to lose its status as a world power, given that Orgnum no longer could afford as great a fleet.  Those who have found it since report that the Coffer eventually disappears after having dispersed enough gold to shame even the wealthiest of merchants. Where and why it vanishes is still a mystery.

Lore:Dragonbone Mail

The  , or the Dragonbone Cuirass,  is thought to be one of the greatest artifacts any collector or hero could own. While many fine pieces of armor have been constructed with real   bone, the Dragonbone Mail was enchanted by the first Imperial Battlemage of Tiber Septim,  , in the early years of the  . It's described as a truly exquisite piece of work, and many have sought to possess it. 

The properties of the cuirass allow the wearer to resist fire, and to damage an enemy with a blast of fire.

Sometime in the Fourth Era, the Dragonbone Mail was stolen from a cargo shipment belonging to the Imperial Legion by Bjormund Wind-Strider of the Crimson Dirks. As he was a descendent of lineage that once served as Dragonguards, the thought of wearing armor fashioned from the remains of Dragons he felt was predestined. Seeking to prove himself, he took a bounty to slay an influential member of the Forsworn, Crowstooth, but was overwhelmed and killed by their gathering forces at Arcwind Point in Skyrim. The Last Dragonborn subsequently sought out the bounty and recovered the cuirass from the corpse of Bjormund.
