📋 About This Mod
Adventurer's Guide to Tamriel
Version 0. 4. 2. 2-Preview
Background
Six years ago, I started creating a setting sourcebook of ~210 pages for d&d 5th edition, set in the Elder Scrolls universe in 2E566(Shortly before TES:Online). Over the course of a year, I completed it, released it into the world, and gained some valuable feedback. With the Early Release of Baldur's Gate 3, I
decided to return to this setting, and adapt it for play. Life happened, and I set the mod aside until Full Release. Well, here we are. Time to get back to work.
Consider this an early preview version. Future updates will be revamping how things are implemented, to make developing the mod and submods for it much easier. If you've tried this mod before Full Release, know that this version is essentially a quick port - no new features or bugfixes have changed outside of what was necessary to get the mod working.
This module includes the Human Elven races: Cyrodiils(Imperials), Breton, Nord, Redguard, Altmer, Bosmer, Dunmer, and Orsimer, including some subraces. It also contains new Deities, the Mage(Incorrectly titled Nightblade, oops) class and the Nightblade Rogue subclass.
While the Mage is based on the existing Wizard, this class has access to different spells, and
a somewhat different class feat system. Neither the Mage nor the Nightblade are fully implemented yet.
If you like my work, please consider leaving a tip on Ko-fi! Neither my mods, nor support for them, will ever be gated behind or be based on payment or donation - this is just for if you feel like encouraging my coffee habit xD
