For other uses, see Angof the Gravesinger.
"He is a tremor in the land, a poison in the water. He is a whisper, a shadow a chill wind. He is Gravesinger and Reachmage, necromancer and corruptor. Death and decay are his domains."
―Guardian of the Earth[src]

Angof the Gravesinger is a Reachman necromancer and the leader of the Bloodthorn Cult in The Elder Scrolls Online.

He has allied himself with the Daedric Prince Molag Bal and attempted to corrupt the land of Glenumbra using dark magic. He is responsible for the resurrection of the werewolf Faolchu and the appearance of thorny roots throughout Glenumbra. His lair is in Cath Bedraud. He serves as the region's main antagonist.

After his death, he can be encountered in Coldharbour at the Cliffs of Failure, participating in the Observer's "Game," where he is known as Angof the Undying. During the Game, Angof tells the Vestige that the reason he turned to Molag Bal was to gain the power to free Glenumbra from what he saw as the corrupt mechanisms of the Breton nobility. Of all the participants of the Game, Angof is the only one to have any form of remorse over what he had done, even willing to sacrifice himself to save the Mages Guild adepts.

Dialogue[]

The Endless War

After planting the seeds in the bodies, if the Vestige is not in the Daggerfall Covenant:

"This woman will live. I have made sure of that. She is too valuable to lose so early in the contest. You may have accomplished her task, but I know she will help me in the end. For this reason, her life is not forfeit."

It almost sounds like you care. "Do not attempt to know my heart, mortal. Juline is pure. Unlike the rest of my army, she's not tainted by corruption. I need one such as her if I am to win this war."
All this just so you can serve Molag Bal once more? "Serve the Lord of Schemes? Never again, mortal! I fight this battle to live. To reverse what I've become. This magic that made me like this hides in this realm. As does the magic to restore me."
You want to be mortal? "I want to become whole again. That's why I play this ridiculous game. Now leave me. The seeds have increased my forces and given me the numbers I need to win this war. That's all I required of you."

Before making your choice, if the Vestige is not in the Daggerfall Covenant:

"You descend a hole that only gets deeper and deeper. Unlike my opponents and I, you can still leave this place. Yet you linger, hoping that you can somehow save the mortals from the Mages Guild. How curious!"

I will save the members of the Mages Guild. "Do I sense overconfidence or just plain stupidity? This isn't your fight. This isn't your war. Don't you understand that? We are here because we disappointed a Daedric Prince—the very same one you came here to defeat!"
I wouldn't be here if you hadn't involved the mages. "Why would someone such as yourself risk so much for the lives of others? You stand in a Dragon's lair. The way is clear behind you, yet you insist on moving forward, provoking the Dragon with every step you take. It's maddening to me!"
A Thorn in Your Side

After speaking with The Observer:

"We make many decisions in life that we truly believe are correct when we make them. This body, for example. It was a gift from the lord of this realm. He said it would grant me the power to topple the corruption of Glenumbra. He lied."

I'm only here to save the Mages Guild members. "Look around, you fool! Would you open the cage of one prison simply to release them into another? This whole realm is a prison! No, there is no way to save your mages. We are all trapped here. Forever."
Then why do you keep fighting? "The magic that created this body resides in this land. If I can win this game and escape these Cliffs of Failure, I hope to find its source. Help me win and you can take Juline with you. I simply seek a way to end this madness."
How do we win the game? "Thallik and Estre's champions must fall. Use my seeds. Plant them in the bodies of those you slay to gain new allies to aid you. It won't be easy, and you probably won't win, but you're the best chance I've had to end this since I got here."
I'll deal with the other champions.

Before making your choice:

"Leave me! You must take the others and go. That is your only option."

You'd rather remain trapped in the game? "Look at me! I'm a monster! I deserve my fate. The others … they did nothing wrong. You came here to save them, so finish what you started!"
But you'd be a great help in my efforts against Molag Bal. "It doesn't matter. You did what I could not. You won the game. Now take the mages and get away from here before the Observer changes the rules again!"

After saving both him and the mages:

"I had friends and allies once. Companions who would never abandon me, no matter the cost. But that was before. Before I became this … monster. Enough! I must find the magic to restore my human form."

There's a safe haven to the west. The Hollow City. "I have heard rumors of such a place. We shall go there at once. And have no fear. I will make sure that your friends arrive safely. Perhaps the city will provide me more clues as to the magic I seek."

Conversations[]

Lineage of Tooth and Claw

Vision of Angof: "Now the legendary werewolf lord shall fulfill Molag Bal's true purpose. Arise, minion. Arise from the dead!" Vision of Faolchu: "I serve no one, Reachman!" Vision of Angof: "Serve or suffer, cur. I've bound you to my will. Glenumbra's destruction is your only goal." Vision of Faolchu: "Today I submit to you, Angof. But one day soon I will rip out your heart and eat it whole." Vision of Angof: "Empty boasts from Molag Bal's newest slave. Come, Faolchu. We have business to attend to."

The Fall of Faolchu

Faolchu the Reborn: "Begone, Angof. I did your bidding. This city is mine now." Vision of Angof: "You are still my creature, slave. I made you." Faolchu the Reborn: "I devoured Camlorn. All of Glenumbra will be mine!" Vision of Angof: "Vain creature. The Lion Guard stands at your door. You have failed." Faolchu the Reborn: "They are weak and I will crush them. Camlorn is mine!" Vision of Angof: "You will see, beast. You will see."

The Endless War

High Kinlady Estre: "Your troops grow weak, Thallik. The Worm Cult isn't what it once was. And this mage isn't going to change that." Thallik Wormfather: "You throw peasants at me, Estre. You confuse weakness with boredom. My mage will do just fine." High Kinlady Estre: "Believe what you will. When I am victorious and you grovel before me, I will remind you of this moment and how wrong you were." Angof the Undying: "You two bicker like a couple of married old Nords. You didn't even notice the new arrival." High Kinlady Estre: "Another one? Where do they all come from? I swear, they pop up like rabbits." Angof the Undying: "This one is different. Special. I think this one will make a good addition to my team."
