Wuunferth explains that the carving was most likely once a skull and correctly identifies it as the Necromancer's Amulet of legend once belonging to [[Mannimarco|Mannimarco, the King of Worms]]. Knowing that the murders are part of a necromancy ritual, Wuunferth correctly predicts the next murder will be in the Stone Quarter the following night, the identified amulet may be found on Calixto's corpse, after his death.
 
 
Alternatively, if Wuunferth is approached before Calixto, he can be shown the amulet and will correctly identify it in dialogue. The actual amulet, however, will not change. He will not offer to purchase it and it will be permanently marked as a quest item with no use.

The Strange Amulet is an enchanted amulet in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

Quests

Blood on the Ice

The Strange Amulet is found in Hjerim, hidden under a pile of Beware the Butcher! pamphlets on a small set of shelves. It is part of a ritual to restore a dead woman to life by collecting body parts. The Dragonborn is led to believe that it is a purely ceremonial amulet called the Wheelstone, which is given to the court wizard of Windhelm. Calixto Corrium offers to buy it for 500 Gold.

Trivia

  • If the Dragonborn keeps the amulet and doesn't sell it to Calixto, it remains a quest item forever, unable to be sold, and never attains any capability. If the Dragonborn sells the amulet, the next time it is seen, it will be identified as the Necromancer Amulet.
  • The amulet is described as "Eight-sided. Jade, ringed with ebony. A worn carving." and it is stated that the carving once portrayed a skull. In-game, the amulet is circular and the carved skull is completely unworn. The Necromancer's Amulet that appeared in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion more accurately matched the Dragonborn's description.

Bugs

This section contains bugs related to Strange Amulet. Before adding a bug to this list, consider the following:

  1. Please reload an old save to confirm if the bug is still happening.
  2. If the bug is still occurring, please post the bug report with the appropriate system template  360  /  XB1  ,  PS3  /  PS4  ,  PC  /  MAC  ,  NX  /  PS5  ,  XS  , depending on which platform(s) the bug has been encountered on.
  3. Be descriptive when listing the bug and fixes, but avoid having conversations in the description and/or using first-person anecdotes: such discussions belong on the appropriate forum board.
  • If the Dragonborn does not sell the Amulet to Calixto before apprehending Wuunferth the Unliving, it will stay stuck in their inventory listed as "Strange Amulet," unable to be sold or dropped.
    •  PC   Once stuck in inventory, it may be removed by using the following console command: player.removeitem 000d2328 1
    •  PC   The Necromancer Amulet can then still be added using the following console command: player.additem 000c891d 1
    • Although the Amulet cannot be sold or dropped even after the quest has been completed (due to it still being regarded as a Quest item), it can be "given" to the corpse of Susanna the Wicked or Arivanya.
    • If the Dragonborn managed to save Arivanya from being murdered, they can put the Strange Amulet into her inventory by pickpocketing her and giving it to her.
  • If the amulet is sold to Calixto, it can be pickpocketed back and be repeatedly re-sold to him for another 500 Gold.
  • If the amulet is reacquired from Calixto after selling it to him, it becomes enchantable as any other regular necklace would be. However, while it can be selected in the enchanting menu, no actual enchantments can be applied to it.
  • Sometimes the amulet can be found in Hjerim if the Dragonborn has bought the house after completing the quest. It is found near an end table with "Beware the Butcher!" pamphlets. It has no enchantments, armor, or weight rating, but can still be sold for 1000 Gold. The Dragonborn may also be unable to drop it or sell it.
