Mace of Molag Bal (Skyrim)

The Mace of Molag Bal is a Daedric Artifact that is given to the Dragonborn after completing the Daedric Quest, House of Horrors in. It has an enchantment on it that not only drains 25 stamina and magicka per hit, it also conveniently steals the soul of an enemy if it dies within 3 seconds.

Trivia

 * The values of the enchants on this Daedric artifact fall under the Destruction school of magic and will be affected by your Destruction skill level.
 * Can be upgraded with an Ebony Ingot on a Grindstone, provided you have the Arcane Blacksmith perk.
 * This item is not affected by the Daedric Smithing perk.
 * It is possible that a NPC will shout "Get that cursed mace away from me!" when it is equipped. There is also the chance a guard might say "That mace... Get it away from me, get it away.
 * Like all Daedric artifacts, it can be sold to enchanting merchants like wizards or Winterhold College spell school masters.
 * Strangely, NPC's will say things like "Take care with those flames" or other fire-related dialogue if the player has the mace drawn.
 * One disadvantage to this weapon is that it takes up almost a third of the screen when equipped in first person, limiting visibility.
 * Contrary to popular belief, the mace itself is not a version of the Daedric Mace. Its being of Daedric origin refers not to the material it is made from, but rather the fact that it was constructed by a Daedric Prince.
 * This mace makes a great combination with the Black Star, as souls captured in it by the Mace's enchantment can be used to recharge it back, resulting in never-ending enchantment power.

Bugs

 * The Mace will occasionally stay equipped when a player enters werewolf form or stay stuck in the werewolf's body for a few seconds.

Quests

 * House of Horrors
