Shivering:Heretic
The UESPWiki – Your source for The Elder Scrolls since 1995
Heretics are those opposed to Sheogorath and wish to see him dethroned. Therefore, they are enemies of the law and must live in rural areas. Heretics tend to make camp on the Mania side of the Isles.
Like conjurers and their Zealot counterparts, Heretics usually rely on summon spells in battle, while also firing Destruction spells and healing themselves. They tend to favor blunt weaponry to blade weaponry.
There are 8 types of Heretic: Heretic Crusader, Heretic Crusader Witch, Heretic Lackey, Heretic Novitiate, Heretic Soldier, Heretic Warpriest, Heretic Watchman, and Transformed Heretic.
It is possible to take their robes and hoods and deceive other Heretics through disguise (you must wear both the robe and the hood for the ruse to work), but only at a distance. If you get too close, they will see through the ruse and begin to attack.

[edit] Spells
All Heretics have a special Heretic Birthsign that provides them with the following permanent bonus:
- Fortify Magicka 50pts
They also have a Firm Beliefs lesser power:
- Dispel 300pts on self
- The Heretic AI is scripted to dispel any mind-affecting effect affecting them. Because this behaviour is scripted, they will dispel even disabling effects like Calm and Demoralize that technically should actually prevent them from taking any action. The only solution is to use spells that exceed the magnitude that can be dispelled by the Dispel power they utilize.
In addition, all Heretics have a set of leveled Heretic Spells, including:
- 1 Major Alteration spell
- 1 Major Destruction spell
- 1 Minor Destruction spell
- 1 Major Restoration spell
- 1 Summon Hunger spell
"Boss" Heretics have an identical spell set to regular Heretics with the exception of a higher-level Summon Hunger spell.
