The Fork of Horripilation? It sings to me, oh yes. Sings like the rocks sing. Songs of weeping. Songs of leaping. Do you weep, stranger? You've come to take it. Will it take you? Then will you weep? Weep like the rocks? It is here! Take it. Take it if you will. Take it if you won't. Singing! Ringing!

This cursed fork drains 200 points of your Magicka when equipped, and does very little damage at that. However, Sheogorath insists that you use it to slay a Giant Bull Netch during his quest. It's well worth the effort, though, as you will be rewarded with the Spear of Bitter Mercy.

NotesEdit
- The name comes from horripilation, the technical term for goosebumps.
- In the Construction Set there is an unused item named "Iron Fork" that seems to be the item base for the Fork of Horripilation.
- The fork also appears in the Shivering Isles expansion for Oblivion, and as part of the Staff of Sheogorath Creation in Skyrim.
