I remember finding one of the M'aiq items when I was in beta but I didn't write down where the heck I was. Is anyone working on this? :)

    I thought you were meant to find M'aiq the Liar himself...I've already spent an hour or two trying to find him in Khenarthis Roost

    There is an achievement for that, but I think there is also an achievement for the item set.

    I only find that kind of stuff by accident when I'm searching remote areas for crafting materials or skyshards. My last sighting of M'aiq was yesterday morning in Bal Foyen on some out-of-the-way ledge.

    Ya know, for a Khajiit, he sure gets around. Does anyone have any lore info on him? He's seen in the 2nd era through the 4th, which makes me believe he's some lesser known daedric prince.
    "It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

    Here is a good article in general on M'aiq:
    elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/M'aiq_the_Liar

    M'aiq, pronounced Mike, is an easter egg NPC placed into a number of the Elder Scrolls games; he spouts misinformation.

    Some questions have been posed as to if he would be in the game; with the answer of no being the answer. Clearly he is in the game; other questions suggest the character we see is an ancestor.

    These two QAs are from the Knowledge-base:

    https://help.elderscrollsonline.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3142/~/will-we-meet-an-ancestor-of-maiq-the-liar%3F

    And a video showing him in TESO:
