Skyrim 10th Anniversary: A powerful amulet worth killing for.

 A powerful amulet worth killing for.

Gauldur Amulet: This amulet once belonged to the Arch-Mage Gauldur, whose wisdom, power, and benevolence was relied on by great kings of the first era. So great was Gauldur’s fame that it overshadowed his three sons who grew resentful and envious of their father. Driven by jealousy, the three sons murdered their father and took from him his amulet of power so that each might have a piece. Each carrying a fragment, the three hateful sons terrorized the lands until each was slain and entombed across Skyrim where the three fragments of the amulet remain to this day.

On the seventh day of Skyrim,
tenth anniversary,
sons killing fathers, 
limitless knowledge,
one dragon priest mask,
a Talos icon,
knee seeking arrows,
Golden Dragon Claw,
and a helmet of iron and horn.

The Gauldur amulet’s +30 to each stat is just too good to pass up in the early and mid-game. At least I found it to be.

Also, Gauldur looks a whole lot like Galdr. Which just happens to be the Norse word for a spell or magical incantation. This reminds me, and hopefully all the other world builders, that I put way too much effort into coming up with original names and not nearly enough energy into stealing names.

The party winds down tomorrow with our eighth and final day of the Skyrim tenth anniversary celebration.

Be excellent to everyone.
