Lore:Grinstone
Grinstone is a yellow-toned metallic ore used to craft Grim Harlequin weapons and armors.[1] This style was linked to the cult of Shogorath, who instructed his chamberlain, Haskill, to create a guide for those wishing to craft "Grim Harlequin" arms and armor, ensuring that the Mad God's mortal followers could uniform their equipment. As Haskill put it, this standardization directly contradicts all other cult practices and is, in itself, utterly insane. He also speculated that by the time he began compiling the notes, Sheogorath himself might have forgotten about the whole matter. The armor itself was known for its consistent motif of grinning skulls and jester faces.[2][3]

Notes[edit]
- Clothing featuring similar designs, also incorporating metallic elements and grinning motifs, did exist.[4]
- Other items, such as chandeliers associated with the Grim Harlequin motif, were also crafted from yellow-toned metals, but their connection to grinstones was unclear.[5]
