My bad Pilaf... Didn't see your post. (I don't know how I didn't see it :oops: )

Anyway, um... I guess it's actually Pilaf's turn. :)

P.S. Please don't kill me :|

You're on the list, but you're farther down on the list than some people.


I get to make a riddle? Fine, then. I'll whip something up.

I once housed the brain of a fearsome creature who only feared fire
I am bone myself, and command the legions of bone
My connections to Oblivion are strong, and I am dangerous to possess
I can drain the living essences my my enemies, and restore health to my wearer
A wicked one created me, but I wander to and fro and keep no Wearer for long
What am I?

Well, of course. It's a personal favorite of mine. No further hints yet, though. The game is young. I'll bet at least one of you will get it on your first try.

Bloodworm Helm

I once housed the brain of a fearsome creature who only feared fire- Appeared as a nordic troll bone helm in morrowind trolls hate fire

I am bone myself, and command the legions of bone- Nordic trollbone helm and grants summon skeleton spell in morrowind

My connections to Oblivion are strong, and I am dangerous to possess- I think this is a reference to the mages guild quest in oblivion where you get the helm

I can drain the living essences my my enemies, and restore health to my wearer- little known fact, the helm is supposed to grant the spell drain essence but only does so for the level 1-4 version due to a bug in oblivion
A wicked one created me, but I wander to and fro and keep no Wearer for long- is an artifact so doesn't stay put and was created by manimarco
What am I?- Bloodworm Helm

You got it, mister. Take fourteen Monopoly Monies, and take your turn to do the thing.

Hmm... Noone has brought up any riddle, so I take the turn and make another one:

Divided I am;
I lie to the west,
while my west lies to the east.
Once ruling all,
my men now try to reclaim
what they lost.

Not Lamae Bal, but a really good guess. Not Miraak either, not close but not too far away either actually.

Here's a clue: "The sky is my home, yet i remain hidden from mortal eyes. Only a few know of my existence, one a queen of rags and lies"

I did quite a lot of research on the guy back in the day, even bought a copy of the Daggerfall Chronicles since that's the only place he's mentioned. :lol:


In the name of a great foreign king
My countrymen spill their own blood.
I tell them of honour and unity
Though I hide within this gilded hood.
