Calcelmo's StoneEdit
Calcelmo's Stone is an artifact bearing inscriptions in both the Dwemer and Falmer alphabets.
CascadiaEdit
Cascadia is an enchanted sapphire ring of either Maormeri or Nordic origins. Some sources believe that the ring was crafted by the Sea Elves, but others claim that it was a failed attempt of a Nord enchanter to create a water-breathing ring. Although it does not provide the ability to breathe underwater, the sounds of the ocean can be heard from its stone. It also provides a boon to the absorptive abilities of the wearer, improves their willpower by granting them a defensive boon while casting spells, and enhances their melee combat capabilities.
Around 4E 180, it came into possession of the Warrior.
ChillrendEdit
Chillrend is an artifact of unknown origins. It takes the form of a glass shortsword, although, unlike regular malachite, it is blue instead of green. Like other glass weapons, its hilt was fashioned from rare metals and moonstone. Its enchantment varies in strength and properties, but it always causes magical frost damage to the opponent. Other known effects include causing a weakness to frost, or temporary paralysis. It also repairs itself when the wielder takes frost damage.
ChrysamereEdit
Chrysamere (also called the Chrysamere Blade, or the Chrysamere) is an ancient adamantium claymore artifact with offensive capabilities only surpassed by its defenses. It has magical properties which, unlike most weapons, are defensive in nature: it heals the wielder, grants them resistance to fire, and reflects hostile spells. It is unaligned, and is not a Daedric artifact. Chrysamere was forged in the late Merethic Era by the Breton swordsmith Asterie Bedel, who delighted in using the techniques of both man and mer in her creations. In Chrysamere's case, this most clearly manifests in the placement of her maker's mark, a "mage's knot" within the heart of the sword that is said to harken back to the earliest days of Bretonic culture. Chrysamere is also said to have been influenced by the magic of Breton society's Elven forebears, and it gained further enchantments over time. Chrysamere does not typically stay with one swordsman for long, for it chooses not to favor one champion. It has earned the title of the Sword of Heroes, but it also goes by other names such as the Sword of Kings and the Blade of Blades. Chrysamere is considered a holy weapon, and in this context it is referred to as the Sword of the Paladin, or simply the Paladin's Blade.
Cleaver of St. FelmsEdit
The Cleaver of St. Felms the Bold (or St. Felms' Cleaver) is a one-handed axe which belonged to the eponymous saint of the Dunmer.
Cold FingerEdit
Cold Finger is powerful magical staff said to have been created in the Shivering Isles by Sheogorath himself. The staff was owned by Dervenin for a while, but due to a cruel joke his mad master played on him, the staff ended up with a Giant Skeever. Eventually, the Giant Skeever was defeated by warriors from Odar's Kingdom, to which Dervenin turned for help, but the local ruler decided to keep the staff rather than return it to Dervenin.[1]
Coral HeartEdit
The Coral Heart is an ancient and powerful artifact associated with the Land Coral along the Inner Sea. The heart's connection to the coral is believed to be symbiotic in nature, and it grants the coral the ability to think and reason. The heart appears as a glowing mass with a barely visible piece of metal buried between layers of coral.
Crosier of St. LlothisEdit
The Crosier of St. Llothis is a staff sacred to the Dunmer as a holy relic. The undefeated spirit of St. Llothis the Pious is said to be contained within it. However, the staff's fitness for combat is questionable, as the staff's enchantments actually have various adverse effects on the wielder. It allegedly housed the spirit of the saint.
Crown of AscensionEdit
The Crown of Ascension is an ancient Barsaebic Ayleid artifact. In appearance it is a simple crown, although it once supposedly possessed powerful enchantments. It is considered a treasure of great value.
Crown of BarenziahEdit
The Crown of Barenziah is the coronation crown of the eponymous Queen of Morrowind, Barenziah. It is a golden crown with a winged-motif that has twenty-four ornate jewels, known as the Stones of Barenziah, across the wings and one on the temple of the head. It was given to the young queen during her ascension to the throne of Mournhold in the early years of the Third Era, amidst the reign of Emperor Tiber Septim. However, sometime after the ceremony, the crown was stolen by an unknown assailant. He pried each of the stones off of the crown and dispersed them across Skyrim, where they became items of interest. For two eras, the Thieves Guild of Skyrim had sought out all twenty-four stones for many years, while the crown was kept in Morrowind.
Crown of FreydisEdit
The Crown of Freydis, originally the Crown of Verity, was a magical artifact created to test the worthiness of potential rulers of Skyrim. It is the second royal crown of Skyrim, replacing the Jagged Crown when it was lost to time during the War of Succession. However, in time it faded from use, and it has not been seen since the Second Era.
Crown of NenalataEdit
The Ayleid Crown of Nenalata is an ancient Ayleid artifact. Its appearance varies, sometimes appearing as a lightweight Moonstone helm, sometimes as a simple crown. It can be distinguished from other Ayleid crowns by a royal glyph emblazoned upon it. Superficial enchantments grant the wearer spell reflection and increased skill at Alteration and Conjuration magic, although the true potential of the crown is seemingly much greater. It is an immensely valuable treasure.
Crusader's RelicsEdit
The Crusader's Relics are a set of Aedric artifacts, created by the Eight Divines and given to Pelinal Whitestrake, the Divine Crusader. The set includes a suit of armor, a shield, a mace and a longsword, which mold to the needs of the wielder and increase their proficiency in the School of Restoration. The artifacts were used by Whitestrake to banish Umaril the Unfeathered, an Ayleid Sorcerer King. In the battle, Umaril had dealt him a fatal blow, and with his death the relics were scattered and lost for a time. The contemporary writings contained within The Song of Pelinal mention that the Crusader's Relics came from the future.
