Skyrim talk:Black Book: The Sallow Regent (book)

Documenting Powers

Not sure about documenting powers at the black books themselves. But it is a property of the book, like skill taught for skill books, so it might make sense to document them here. Anyway, not too attached to it. --Alfwyn (talk) 13:10, 5 February 2014 (GMT)

The King in Yellow

The title is a clear allusion to The King in Yellow since sallow means yellowish and a regent is a stand-in for a king. The King in Yellow is a famous story about a play which is full of eldritch lore that drives readers insane, and references to it show up in many Cthulhu mythos-inspired works. Hermaeus Mora, as a betentacled god who dispenses dangerous knowledge beyond mortal comprehension is also in line with that.

Where would be the best place to mention this? — Unsigned comment by 130.156.142.240 (talk) on 19:14 (UTC) 8 Feb 2017

This reference is mentioned on the Dragonborn easter eggs page. Echo (talk) 19:24, 8 February 2017 (UTC)
