Crafting Motif 60, Worm Cult Style
by The Worm of Songs
A guide to crafting armor and weapons in the Worm Cult style
- In death is life, reanimation
A sacred and a dark vocation
Our Order's garb all shall recall
Their final sight before they fall
AXES
- Worm axe blade's like a severed ear
Restored to life as metal hacker
A mighty arm that all must fear
Glint of steel and gleam of lacquer
BELTS
- Echoes of Coldharbour see
In cinctures, sashes, belts
On each hip are tassets three
With hooks for scalps or pelts
BOOTS
- Each sabaton is lapping, plated
Like those of Bal's dark legions
Our troops' corpses reanimated
Returned from deathly regions
BOWS
- From bones defleshed we craft our bows
They loose with bony rattle
The skeletal dart Worm archer throws
Slays men like so much cattle
CHESTS
- Worm armor's plates are tributes all
To our Lord of the Undead
The skin and form of Molag Bal
To steel and iron wed
DAGGERS
- Like jagged fangs, our daggers curve
Serrated edge and point
Grim armaments, they also serve
To sever and disjoint
GLOVES
- Our gauntlets guard forearms and hands
Enabling fists to grip
With fingers clad in bony bands
Ensuring hafts don't slip
HELMETS
- Like metal skull of Daedric beast
Worm helm enwraps your head
Overlapping, layered, creased
March leading our undead
LEG GREAVES
- Chausses echo chest design
Coldharbour inspiration
Daedric chevron, curving line
Of Lord of Domination
MACES
- When slaying foes to animate
The mace has many charms
We want a corpse in wholesome state
With all its legs and arms
SHIELDS
- On Worm Cult shield the horns of Bal
Adorn o'erlapping plates
For undeath is the fate of all
Who pass Coldharbour's gates
SHOULDERS
- Pauldrons sharp as fangéd skulls
Adorn Worm Cultists' shoulders
Mortals rise as Black Worm thralls
Or in their graves shall molder
STAVES
- With spellstaff horned like Bal himself
Dark mages focus magic
Thus mortals—human, beast, or Elf
All meet their endings tragic
SWORDS
- Swords serrated, pointed, edged
To twist in mortals' entrails
March forth, Worm Cultist fully-fledged
Cause adversaries' wails
