No relation?[edit]

I was under the impression that he was related to the armor, and that the name translates to "Great Benefit". I know I've heard that somewhere, but I'm having a hard time tracking down the source. Can anyone remember where this came from? --TheRealLurlock Talk 23:13, 19 March 2008 (EDT)

If someone finds this out, I need it for a reference on Lore:Ehlnofex Languages. -- kertaw48 21:58, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
Found the source. It's not actually found in-game, but rather it was found on the Elder Scrolls official website. The webpage is long gone, but I found a version in the Wayback Machine (link: [1]). Under "Bonemold", it reads,
Also known as 'Great House' armor in Morrowind, bonemold is a medium weight armor affordable only by Dunmer nobles. Each piece is assembled from many pieces of softened shell, molded into shape, then bonded and reinforced with resin glues. The example shown here features a distinctive House Redoran gah-julan ('great-benefit') helm with the protective cowl.

Still doesn't give any connection to the Argonian slave in this article. It's odd that the random name generator (you know they've got one) would roll the same name for an Argonian and for Dunmer armor - the languages are not very similar most of the time. --TheRealLurlock Talk 02:58, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
