Elven Armor

Nuulion was a master smith of the Summerset Isle of Altmer origins, and a known keeper of the secret of the arts of crafting Elven armor from moonstone and quicksilver. Little else is known about him, but he was active between the fifth century and the seventh century of the Second Era. Although some sources claim that slavery (of other races than Goblins) was illegal in Summerset as of 2E 582, Nuulion was a known slave owner, both before and after that time. One of his slaves, a Dunmer named Ulvul Llaren, worked the bellows for him for three centuries.

Ulvul managed to escape his captivity and returned to mainland Tamriel at some point during the seventh century of the Second Era. To punish his previous, cruel owner, he revealed all the secrets of the Altmer armor and weapon smithing he knew to the world, such as the key information regarding moonstone as a key ingredient, and the instruction specyfing that salt water must be used to quench the hot metal.

Other cultures than Altmer previously crafted armor and weaponry from malachite, quicksilver, and moonstone, but only after the "Betrayal of Ulvul Llaren", they learnt secrets of Elven armor and how to use those materials in conjunction.
