"Did he warn you that your own power would be your undoing? That it would only serve to strengthen me?"
―Morokei[src]

Morokei (Dragon Language: MOROKEi Moro-Kei: "Glory-[?]," "Glorious") is a dragon priest in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

The ultimate boss in Labyrinthian and secondary antagonist of the College of Winterhold questline, Morokei controls the Staff of Magnus.

Background

Savos Aren encountered Morokei many years prior to the events of Skyrim, during a failed expedition to the Labyrinthian with five fellow apprentices.

Unable to stop the priest due to his immense power, Savos was desperate to seal away Morokei permanently. Savos bound the last two of his surviving friends as ethereal thralls, forever bound in indentured servitude, to hold a magical barrier around Morokei—preventing him from accumulating power and using the Staff of Magnus for wrongdoing.

Interactions

The Staff of Magnus

While traversing the Labyrinthian, Morokei speaks to the Dragonborn—at first in the dragon language, then in Tamrielic. When speaking, the Dragonborn's magicka is quickly and completely drained.

As the ultimate boss of the chamber, Morokei must be defeated, along with the two enthralled apprentices forever bound by Savos Aren to contain the priest, in order to obtain the Staff of Magnus.

Notable items

Upon his defeat, Morokei drops the Morokei mask—one of the eight dragon priest masks located throughout Skyrim. Collecting all eight masks is a requirement for the unmarked quest to restore the dragon priest shrine at Bromjunaar.

Morokei also drops the Staff of Magnus, which is required for the College of Winterhold questline's completion.
