Reaper's March Codex - Malacath's Brutal Ritual Dust

• Ugron gro-Thumog Malacath's Brutal Scourge Hoop An outstanding find! See the intricacy of the twisted knots? This is clearly the upper hoop of one of Malacath's Brutal Bands! With the hoop, the core, and the loop, it forms a perfect ring.
• Gabrielle Benele Malacath's Brutal Scourge Hoop From the Malacath cult that rose to prominence after the sack of the first Orsinium? Are you sure? As I understand it, only a handful of those ever existed. And aren't they cursed as well? Perhaps we should put it back ....
• Reginus Buca Malacath's Brutal Scourge Hoop Nonsense! If scholars such as us balked every time a curse was mentioned, we'd never accomplish anything! This upper hoop represents Malacath's blessing of the scourge, by the way. A defense for the wearer.
• Verita Numida Malacath's Brutal Might Loop Look, a piece of Malacath's Brutal Band! This is obviously from a ring that belonged to a prominent member of Malacath's Brutal Breed, a cult that rose from the ashes of Orsinium around 1E 1000. A fascinating group!
• Amalien Malacath's Brutal Might Loop Fascinating? My research refers to them as Malacath fanatics intent on wiping out the Bretons and Redguards for every real and imagined slight perpetrated by them against the Orcs. Those rings represent vengeance, nothing more.
• Ugron gro-Thumog Malacath's Brutal Might Loop What do you know of slights and vengeance, my esteemed colleague? Some Orcs believe the Brutal Breed had the right idea and were saddened when they were wiped out. Not me, mind you, but some among my kind.
• Ugron gro-Thumog Malacath's Brutal Ritual Oil This ritual urn bears the mark of the Brutal Breed. An Orc named Borug gro-Bashnarz founded the cult and served as its head supplicant. Legends attribute him as the one who received the Brutal Bands from Malacath himself. Hard to believe, even for an Orc.
• Gabrielle Benele Malacath's Brutal Ritual Oil Right. I remember that story. From the Orsinium Codex. Malacath appeared before him and gifted him with a ring for every member of the cult—after they sacrificed an entire village of Bretons to the Ashpit. Ghastly.
• Reginus Buca Malacath's Brutal Ritual Oil And you're certain this urn contains the ritual oil used to anoint the Brutal Bands? It is believed that every cultist carried the oil to apply to their rings as a sort of prayer or request for perseverance in the face of endless adversity.
• Verita Numida Malacath's Brutal Rune Core Another amazing find! This can only be the core of one of Malacath's Brutal Bands. Notice the intricate carving, the runework. The cult claimed the rings were forged in the Ashpit and presented to them by Malacath himself.
• Ugron gro-Thumog Malacath's Brutal Rune Core As with every legend, I am sure there is a kernel of truth to the story. I've seen forgeries over the years, but only a limited number of the true rings were known to exist. This is definitely one of them. An Orc can always tell.
• Amalien Malacath's Brutal Rune Core I concur. Moreover, I would go so far as to say this is the core to the head supplicant's band itself! See that symbol? With the slash and the angle? That's a portion of Malacath's true name! I've seen it before, trust me!
• Reginus Buca Malacath's Brutal Ritual Dust A pouch of ritual dust associated with the cult known as Malacath's Brutal Breed. A wonder it survived. It truly is well preserved. Must have something to do with how the leather was treated. Or maybe it really contains dust from the Ashpit?
• Gabrielle Benele Malacath's Brutal Ritual Dust That's what the legends tell us. Another gift from Malacath to his most-devoted followers. Of course, they were also quite mad. Violent fanatics who swore to die for what they believed in. And they did, too. A brutal and relatively short existence.
• Ugron gro-Thumog Malacath's Brutal Ritual Dust They would place their Brutal Bands in the dust while they slept, thinking that would charge them with energy from Malacath's domain. I wonder if the Mages Guild could devise a test to determine if the dust actually originated in Oblivion?
