Nahkriin is a dragon priest mask found in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Nahkriin translates to "vengeance" in dragon language.
Acquisition
This mask can be acquired from the dragon priest Nahkriin in Skuldafn during the quest "The World-Eater's Eyrie", just before entering Sovngarde. This is the only opportunity to obtain this mask as it is impossible to return to Skuldafn.
