📋 About This Mod
Two outlander scholars have set up shop in Pelagiad: one seeks your sharp mind and brave heart, the other your coin and fashion sense. Lend
your aid to the entomologist and uncover a world of clans and chitin, earning uniquely crafted armor infused with the essence of Vvardenfell’s insects and even gain a few skittering companions to accompany you on your travels. Or simply choose to barter with the botanist and receive floral accessories.
This is a small quest mod that was primarily made to practice my armor and weapon modeling skills. There are two versions, one requiring MWSE and one not.
There is a new MWSE version not requiring Onion, but functions in the exact same way.
The old MWSE version makes the flower crowns use Onion so your hair isn't hidden and you can wear helmets if you choose. The non-MWSE version simply makes them use the helmet slot and unfortunately hides the player's hair but I made it for compatibility with OpenMW and the sort. There are some other scripting differences between the two and I feel the MWSE version is smoother and closer to my vision, but the choice is yours. (You can use the MWSE version without Onion if you delete the FloraAndFauna - Crowns folder!)
Intended to be as lore-friendly as possible but let me know of anything that stands out.
Compatibility:
Beautiful Cities of Morrowind - Compatible
Native Lands - Compatible
Pelagiad Minuet Cottage - Compatible with Professionals Patch

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fresh quest content in a classic location (Pelagiad) — nice for Morrowind veterans.
- Two distinct questlines: one for thinkers, one for fashionistas — good variety.
- Recent update (Aug 2026) suggests the author is still active.
⚠️ Cons
- Tiny following (18 endorsements) — you're an early adopter, so expect rough edges.
- Only 443 downloads — community feedback is scarce, so bugs may lurk.
For Morrowind players who've exhausted the main quests and want small, character-driven side content. If you enjoy quirky NPCs and light roleplay, this fits. Skip if you prefer large-scale overhauls or need polished, well-documented mods.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Pelagiad is south of Balmora — fast travel there or use the silt strider from Seyda Neen.
- Talk to both scholars before committing to quests to see which suits your character.
- If you use a mod manager like Wrye Mash, drop the mod in and activate; otherwise, place files in your Data Files folder.
