Quick WalkthroughEdit

  1. Read Bounty: Fangtusk.
  2. Obtain an Arctic Grayling.
  3. Travel northeast of Yngol Barrow.
  4. Place the grayling on the rock.
  5. Kill Fangtusk.
  6. Search Fangtusk for the Vampiric Ring.
  7. Speak to the steward of Windhelm.

Detailed WalkthroughEdit

This quest can be started after Crustacean Extermination has been completed by talking to Viriya:

Know of anyone in need of fishing work around Skyrim?
"Of course. It's all in this note."

She will hand you the bounty, read it and you will learn of a monsterous horker known as Fangtusk, which has been terrorizing fishermen north of Hollyfrost Farm.

You need to obtain an arctic grayling and then head northeast of Yngol Barrow to a rock by water that has two skeletons laying next to it, place the arctic grayling on the rock and Fangtusk will emerge from the icy water.

Once you have killed Fangtusk, inspect his body and you will find vampire dust, vampire gloves, and a Vampiric Ring, suggesting Fangtusk ate a vampire.

Take this ring to the steward of Windhelm and speak to them:

Fangtusk has been slain.
"It's really dead, then? It may be dead now, but... where did it come from?"
An enchanted ring in Fangtusk's gut seems to have been the source of its power.
"You've done well."
Travellers should be safe now. At least, safe from giant vampire horkers.
"Thank you. Here this is for you."

You will then be rewarded 200 gold.

Stage Finishes Quest Journal Entry
10 The Jarl of Windhelm has put out a bounty on a monsterous horker known as Fangtusk, which has been terrorizing fishermen north of Hollyfrost Farm. Fishermen have learned that it seems to enjoy arctic grayling above all other fish. I should obtain an arctic grayling and leave it near its feeding grounds in order to lure it out.
Objective 0: Obtain an arctic grayling
Objective 10: Place an arctic grayling at Fangtusk's feeding grounds
50 I've placed an arctic grayling at Fangtusk's feeding grounds, which seems to have lured it out. I can now slay it in order to rid the area of its hostility.
Objective 40: Kill Fangtusk
60 I have slain Fangtusk. During the battle, I discovered that the rumors about its ability to drain the life of those around it are true. I should inspect it to learn what, if anything, has granted it this unnatural ability.
Objective 50: Inspect Fangtusk
70 After slaying Fangtusk, I discovered the remains of a vampire inside its gut, along with an enchanted vampiric ring. I should show the Jarl's steward the ring as proof that the deed is done.

Notes
  • Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the Radiant Quest system, and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
  • Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
  • Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
  • If an entry is marked as "Finishes Quest" it means the quest disappears from the Active Quest list, but you may still receive new entries for that quest.
  • On the PC, it is possible to use the console to advance through the quest by entering setstage ccBGSSSE001_Misc_Windhelm stage, where stage is the number of the stage you wish to complete. It is not possible to un-complete (i.e. go back) quest stages, but it is possible to clear all stages of the quest using resetquest ccBGSSSE001_Misc_Windhelm.
