Help with lore to find connection with a single item and a craftable set for all of sets

Ek1 · March 2020

I came up some time ago an idea to have a item that IDs each craftable set. Like a signature item that could be spotted from distance so crafter would immediately know where to jog.

Some of the items relations are easy like the dragonguards banner for the dragonguards set and others ...not so. So I am asking the lore masters to pinch their superpowers to come up more connections for the missing ones. Or if you got more fitting idea for the already listed one, I'd like to hear that too! Banners look nice and are quite uniform but anything kinda goes. Trying to avoid really expensive ones or crown ones in case someone wants to follow the idea at their own place.

You can jump at my place to see how it looks like.

Ashen Grip - Remnant of Balreth, connection = its a fire set located in Stonefalls at the magmaflow overlook near Balreth's mountain
https://eso.mmo-fashion.com/remnant-of-balreth/

Vampire's Kiss or Song of Lamae - Tamrith Coffin/Coffin Lid, connection = vampirism achievement
https://eso.mmo-fashion.com/tamrith-coffin/

Whitestrake's Retribution / Pelinal's Aptitude - you've got the Hope of Rivenspire, but you might consider using the Banner of Mayhem instead, seeing how the Midyear Mayhem celebration is very associated with Pelinal Whitestrake. https://eso.mmo-fashion.com/banner-of-mayhem/

Alessia's Bulwark - Imperial Banner, connection = Red Diamond and her pact with Akatosh or Banner of Mayhem
https://eso.mmo-fashion.com/imperial-banner/

Night Mother's Gaze - Statue of the Mother, connection = its a statue of the Night Mother
https://eso.mmo-fashion.com/statue-of-the-mother/

Thank you! Good ideas! Unique Id per set so that you can't mix up two crafting clusters.

Burning stuff does produce ash and location fits too.

I don't know/understand the connection with Lamae but coffin is brilliant one. I feel stupid for not seeing that one myself.

Oh, Banner of Mayhem it is then. Didn't know about such connection.
Ideas Whitestrake's Retribution? Can't have two same as then it is not unique thus not really a signature.

I think this one fits better as the alchemy crafting sign is more or less reserved to the actual alchemy table.

Added all your suggestions to list. You can also make comment directly to the doc if you want.

I was also thinking to use (round) rug's to indicate the area where the set usually is. eLsweyr ones are the easiest at the moment.

Actually, what about
Cabinet, Poisonmaker’s

More ideas?

Deaths wind = dark brotherhood banner maybe? Or maybe the sanctuary sconce (it's a skull)

Night's Silence: hourglass rug from achievement furnished after completing "a lesson in silence"? Bit of a stretch. How about the khajit moons banner/curtains? There are several styles available and they have moons on => nighttime. Also I think there are stone tablets with moons on?

Edit: Waning Moons Tile (or variant) is 5000g from achievement furnisher in reapers March after Hallowed Moons quest
