NotesEdit

  • According to the book On Lycanthropy, found in Daggerfall, a Skyrim tradition is to rub canis root on trees as a ward against werebears. However, there are no werebears present in mainland Skyrim, perhaps denoting this tradition's success.
  • NelothDB is particularly fond of canis root tea, though you cannot actually make tea from canis roots in-game.
  • Although canis root grows also in Hjaalmarch, the biggest ones tend to grow in and around the mountains of The Rift, with the largest of all being inside Angarvunde, which dwarf the height of an Altmer male in size.
