He forgot his mask in his other pants pocket.

Typically, Dragon Priests have unique masks. I mean, you get one off the Dragon Priest you find in Blodskaal Barrow, but not Vahlok. It's breaking the tradition.

i found that odd. he must be special lol

...well, apparently he's associated with the book Guardian and Traitor...might be an answer there...
Hell I thought the masks are what allowed them to rise.

I always thought that the masks were given to the high ranking dragon priests to show there ranking. Not all dragon priests we fight in Skyrim have masks. There were one or 2 that did not.

well being the jailer of Mirrak(sp?) probably had to do something with him not getting a mask.

That guy took on Miraak when he was alive...Must have been a real badass in life.

The Priest in White Ridge Barrow has a mask as well.

Occasionally, once you get to high levels unnamed Dragon Priests will start cropping up as Dungeon bosses, like at that mine in the Reach where they accidentally the mine.

Only the High Priests get masks.

Thanks. I could not quite remember how it went.

What I want to know is why are solsteim masks different than skyrim masks. I understand miraaks tentacled mask since he fell from dragonppriest and became herma mora's biatch. But why are the other three shaped differently and all tentacly"

Maybe they were priest but miraak was their leader?

» Sun Feb 03, 2013 6:19 pm

And they joined him in his treachery? And that's why vahlok has no mask. It was taken for not joining the fallen dragonpriests????

» Sun Feb 03, 2013 2:28 pm

Maybe because the lore says there were 8 high dragon priests, and these guys were not a member of the 8. Miraak was Hermy's and these new dragon priests were his, which could be why they are different. Hope that made sense

They also don't include hoods.
I figure it has something to do with where they live. High Priests in Skyrim have one style of mask and the high priests of Solstheim have another. They may have even been entirely different ranks or types of priest, similar to how there area by different types of priest in many if today's religions. (A catholic Cardinal, for instance has different attire than the Pope, despite being of the same religion.)

There are 4, Miraak's, Dunaak's, and I cant remember the other two, but Dunaak's is Frost, I have the Shock one, but I cant remember the name

There's a handful of Dragon Priests in Vanilla Skyrim that don't have masks, not sure why this one surprises so much.

There is Miraak's mask, there is a mask that improves frost, a mask that improves shock and a mask that improves fire.
