About this armor

Weighs 5.9 and provides nine poise. It has no attribute, sorcery or Frostbite bonus.

This is a separate mask resembling Blaidd, not a headpiece taken from his final corpse. It can be collected beside Seluvis's Rise before completing Ranni's quest.

Cannot be altered. It can be combined with Blaidd's chest and limbs for the matching appearance, but the complete outfit has no added set effect.

In-game description

A mask fashioned after the head of a black wolf.

Relic of an assassin who assumed the guise of Ranni the Witch's loyal shadow. The likeness is striking.

Where to find

Wall beside Seluvis's Rise

Liurnia of the Lakes

Starting Site of Grace: Ranni's Rise

Before you go

  • Defeat Royal Knight Loretta to reach Three Sisters.
  1. Reach the western Liurnia road and follow it north through Kingsrealm Ruins. Strike the illusory wall blocking the road at the northern end, then continue past Iji at Road to the Manor.
  2. Ride toward the large manor while avoiding the magical strikes falling along the approach. Activate Main Caria Manor Gate grace at the entrance.
  3. Inside, follow the courtyard path northwest toward the building in the far corner. Fingercreepers hide among the plants and beneath the ground; do not stop on a buried hand.
  4. Enter the building with the seated spirit and climb its stairs to Manor Lower Level grace.
  5. Take the elevated walkways east and continue straight along the main route at the first junction. Spectral soldiers appear along the bridges. Reach the far building and take its lift up to Manor Upper Level.
  6. Leave the upper grace, pass the wolves in the garden and climb the main stone stairway toward the Troll Knight and sorcerers.
  7. Continue up the stairs beyond the troll and Pages to the large circular courtyard. Defeat Royal Knight Loretta, then activate Royal Moongazing Grounds grace.
  8. Leave Loretta's arena through its rear exit into Three Sisters. Go to Seluvis's Rise, the tower southwest of Ranni's Rise.
  9. Face the entrance and look left for the crumbling wall. Climb the broken masonry, using Torrent's jumps if helpful, then follow the wall around behind the tower.
  10. Loot the corpse on the wall for Black Wolf Mask. Entering Seluvis's tower, joining Ranni or killing Blaidd is unnecessary for this pickup.

  • The corpse is on the ruined wall outside the tower. It is available without fighting Seluvis, Blaidd or the Glintstone Dragon in Three Sisters.
