Masque of Clavicus Vile

The Masque of Clavicus Vile improves prices, Speech and magicka regeneration. How to get it in "A Daedra's Best Friend" – and the Rueful Axe choice.

The Masque of Clavicus Vile is a heavy armor mask belonging to the Daedric Prince of wishes and bargains – and fittingly, it makes you better at bargaining.

How to get it

It’s one of two possible rewards for “A Daedra’s Best Friend”, which begins when you meet the talking dog Barbas near Falkreath. At the end, Clavicus Vile offers you a deal: kill Barbas with the Rueful Axe and keep the axe, or refuse – and get the Masque instead.

Only the Masque counts as a Daedric artifact. The Rueful Axe doesn’t.

Enchantment

  • Prices are 20% better.
  • Speech +10.
  • Magicka regenerates 5% faster.

How to get it

Reward for "A Daedra's Best Friend" if you refuse to kill Barbas with the Rueful Axe.
