all information on UESP .

folium discognitum - 1/10
so much more fun and cool ways to give information than books . especially rambles like this . would imagine instruments in cacophony with odd clarity as individual instruments shine and then compete , or painting that shift about and seem to pop out from canvas , not ... book .

neb crescen - 3/10
story is memorable , but actual artifact is ... not very interest . cursed sword that cause to black out and kill ... nah . sheogorath can do better and more fun than that !
would love if get see design , and not just text describe - that might give some more interest . most of points come from story - good story where artifact do as intend , just not intend fun enough .

memory wand - 5/10
classic asshole sheogorath . mwah . some people complain that sheogorath in shivering isles is too lawl random XD rather than mad but could consider that sheogorath simply flow between phases . ahem . anyway .
again with memorable story , and also like design . think might work as stronger if not just target painful memory ... sheogorath delight in unstable and emotionally volatile states , and think more potential for that if just widen scope .
however , 1 point off because art depict jyggalag with face under that helmet . absolute disgust . no . not at all .

fork of horripilation - 7/10
forky is beautiful no one can disrespect forky .

gambolpuddy - 7/10
purpose is simple , as sacrifical artifact rather than something to keep and use forever - but that design ... that fucking design .
unfortunately not higher than this because of not really have use - good stats yes , but nothing especially fun , and will need to sacrifice and give up as everyone do , so ... not something that get to play with . just … absolutely fucking gorgeous

staff of the everscamp - 8/10
so very unfair that even player who become sheogorath can not escape that horrible speed damage , because oh . oh love this so much . scamps just spawn and follow around forever . these will not do anything for player , but not hurt either - and can possibly command and control with magic ! really that speed damage is worst part ...
really love things like this , things that take hold on mind and say " please do not let go , will give so much ! " and make as hard as possible . that is fun way to do cursed artifact . neb crescen take notes .

staff of sheogorath - 10/10
HOLD !
see , see ? now dear reader all stuck in place and force to read this . :P
OK , probably not really , but why not just pretend ? not as if people under effect of staff can do much other than imagine and pretend - but hey ! at least also immune to damage . very fun to take this in oblivion gates and just freeze , freeze , freeze to finish from entrance to sigil stone in like , barely 2 minutes . absolute joy .
RELEASE !

wabbajack - 11/10
wabbajack . need say any more ?
… yes ? hm . OK !
just love to make chaos with wabbajack - turn horses into trolls that escape pen , then watch everyone - horses too - get confuse and wonder how horses manage this ! watch forester go after deer and see if can turn tables , or " help " guard out with nasty minotaur .
also ... actually useful with ghostly creatures that can only hurt by magic . so annoy when instantly overencumber because magic lightly brush ear … very happy to take that away and make into something physically vulnerable . not so superior now huh ghosts ? assholes .

gambolpuddy if sheogorath would actually wear - 1000000/10



this post is over now goodbye .

faerie complaint about elder scrolls lore :
( disclaimer , not huge nerd buff or anything , just something that think about while poke around during bosmer playthrough in skyrim . )

on one hand , really like bosmer .
on other , bosmer confuse .
find hard understand why writers believe " harmony with nature " means :

  • can not harm or harvest from plants
  • ( can still benefit from others who do )
  • can harvest things and animals other than plants

rocks , animals , water , all as important to nature as trees and plants - and all also important to trees and plants .
as well , sometimes plants get diseases . without intervention , plant disease can spread and kill more than if simply cut loss and take down that bush , that branch , that tree . plant overgrowth can harm , stifle out other life , stifle out own life . animals act as control for other animals and for plants to prevent this ; if remove only animals but never plants , will lose that balance .

if ask kossai , green pact should not be about never harm or harvest - sometimes , inaction is much more harm .
understand this is fantasy , and bosmer have workarounds through magic and ritual for some problems . but just confuse why writers set up like this - no point in strict policy if that inaction can harm anyway , and certainly reality make clear .
forests beautiful and sacred , and sometimes protect means short term harm .
