Divine DiseaseHe lives in → Tel Fyr.Divine DiseaseThe magical principles of → corprus disease are elusive and miraculous, far more subtle andpowerful than any conventional sorcery or → enchantment. I'm persuaded that it is in somemanner the curse or → blessing of a god. Perhaps both a curse and a → blessing. The victim, ofcourse, cannot appreciate the marvelous nature of → corprus. It saps the mind and destroys thebody. But to a wizard, it is a profound and glorious mystery, a riddle worth a long lifetime ofstudy.Divine InterventionThe subject of this effect is transported instantaneously to the altar of the nearest → shrine of the→ Imperial cult.Divine MetaphysicsThis is an explanation of how the → Dwemer tried to make a new god, → Anumidium, using →Kagrenac's tools and the sacred tones on Lorkhan's Heart. It has several interesting theories abouthow to bend the Ehlnofey or "Earth Bones," but I am not entirely sure I understand it myself.Perhaps after another century of study I could have a better answer for you.Domination SpellsDomination spells permit the caster to bend the will of creatures and humanoids to the caster'sservice. Affected creatures and humanoids will not, alas, listen to or follow orders, but they willfeel a compulsion to aid and protect the caster. Most otherworldly creatures are unaffected, thoughthe undead can be compelled to avoid the caster. The most common domination spells are: → turnundead, → command creatures, and → command humanoids.DommeA cave southeast of the Mortrag Glacier.Dragonbone CuirassAlso known as Dragonbone Mail, this cuirass is one of the greatest → artifacts any collector orhero could own. It is constructed of real dragon bone and was enchanted by the first Imperial →Battlemage, Zurin Arctus, in the early years of the Third Era. It is a truly exquisite piece of workand many have sought to possess it. The properties of the Cuirass allow the wearer to → resist fire,and to damage an enemy with a blast of fire. Little is known about the involvement of ZurinArctus with the → enchantment of the Cuirass, but an old tale speaks of a debt that he owed to atraveling → Warrior. Like the Warrior, the Dragonbone Mail never stays put for long. The →Museum of Artifacts offers 30,000 gold for it.Lit.: Famed Artifacts of Tamriel (TEST I 2 : 352).65
