Doomstones

Across Cyrodiil, within rings of rough stones, stand 21 ancient monuments known as Doomstones. You will hear different things about these pillars from various folks. Upper class citizens will say simply that they are a mystery.

In one issue of the Black Horse Courier, Anvil author Quill-Weave is quoted as saying that she finds no evidence at all to support the popular notion that these runestones were once artifacts of great magical power.

If you have achieved Apprentice rank in the Mages Guild you can attend a lecture series on the Doomstones on the Arcane University campus. The students start to gather on the benches outside of the Praxographical Center a little after 9 am and 3 pm, and the lectures are offered at 10 am and 4 pm. There are five lectures in the series about the Doomstones.

There are two types of Doomstones, Birthsign and Heaven stones. When activated between 6 am and 6 pm each of the birthsign stones takes away any other Doomstone powers that you have acquired and gives you new ones. The Heaven stones, marked with red runes, are slightly trickier, as you have to have a certain level of combined fame and infamy to activate them.
