Outcomes

Added gear requires a successful quest payment and a qualifying outcome. Quest mail alone does not count as payment.

Outcome	Gold multiplier	Gear choice
The werewolf is dead, and Clavicus Vile paid as promised: the Masque of Clavicus Vile is yours.	Scripted reward	No added gear
The werewolf outlived Clavicus Vile's deadline, and his offer with it.	No added payment	No

With Questlines enabled, these outcomes control the added rewards. Gold multipliers apply only to gold the quest actually pays. A gear choice offers a weapon, armour and jewellery; keep one. See Quest rewards and loot for rarity, payment and online reward rules.

Possible quest foes

Foe	Group size
Werewolf	1

These are the script’s possible foe groups, including conditional encounters. They are not all guaranteed to appear together; repeated attacks and ordinary dungeon enemies can add more. Follow a foe’s reference for its combat rules before choosing weapons.

Artifact loot

Artifact	Acquisition
Masque of Clavicus Vile	Quest-specific artifact route; see objectives and choices

These are quest-script items, separate from ordinary enemy or chest drops. When the quest selects an artifact route, the listed artifacts are alternatives rather than a reward bundle.

See Quest reference for offer requirements across quests.
