In the Shivering Isles expansion, Sheogorath is the only character in the game to have a grown-out beard, and the player cannot grow one of their own. If you attack Sheogorath, he will teleport you far above an unmarked location on the map called "Punishment Point", where you will fall to your death among other corpses. If you make it to Punishment Point on your own, a corpse named "Sheogorath's Punished" can be found with the following Death Decree attached to him explaining the "heinous crime" that sealed his fate there:

"Sheogorath, Prince of Madness, Lord of the Never-There, Sovereign of the Shivering Isles, does, on this day, hence-forth make this decree:

Robert Wisnewski

Citizen of the Shivering Isles, Resident of Bliss, and Honored Madman
has broken the laws and covenants of the Shivering Isles and offended the austere personage of Our Lord, through the following actions:
Attempting the Growth of a Beard, an Action Deemed Unseemly in the Eyes of Our Lord
It is further decreed that the actions of this citizen merit the strictest of punishments to be meted out at the earliest possible hour, in a manner to be chosen according to the Whims and Fancies of Our Lord Sheogorath"

Robert Wisnewski is the name of a member of Bethesda's art team that worked on the Shivering Isles expansion, suggesting this Easter egg was a light jab at him for trying to grow a beard during development.
