📋 About This Mod
In this mod, inspired by the recent Critical Role ESO One-shot, you help Jobasha reconstruct a "Zine" written by a friend of his distant ancestor Amiri. You will retrace the steps of this 2nd Era adventure, and find yourself in interesting and dangerous places on the mainland and beyond. To start the quest, speak to Jobasha about work, and start exploring the places the pages of this zine might be.
Due to the TR locations this mod will take you, it is intended for high level characters, I'd advise level 15 as an absolute minimum, and even at this level it might be difficult.
Requirements
This mod largely takes place on the mainland so you'll need both Tamriel Data and Tamriel Rebuilt.
All locations on the mainland this mod takes place in are made by the Tamriel Rebuilt team.
While this mod is finished and functional, I intend to add additional quests in the future, expand the unique locations, and add more dialog, specifically to the unique NPCs.
A small quest mod for Morrowind that sends players on a scavenger hunt across the mainland to help Jobasha locate a forgotten 'zine, including a couple of unique finds. With 12 endorsements and a recent update, it's a niche addition for fans of the game's lore and exploration.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fresh quest content for Morrowind explorers who want more to do
- Recent update (May 2025) means it's likely compatible with current setups
- Small but dedicated following (12 endorsements) suggests it's appreciated by those who try it
⚠️ Cons
- Tiny mod with only 12 endorsements—might be rough around the edges
- Quest might be short—just finding a few items, not a sprawling adventure
For Morrowind completionists who've done everything and want a little extra lore-flavored quest. Also for fans of Jobasha who want more interaction with him. Skip if you're looking for a big, epic questline—this is a small scavenger hunt.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to check your load order if you use other Morrowind mods—this one should be placed logically with other quest mods.
- Talk to Jobasha in Vivec's Foreign Quarter to start the quest; he's a Khajiit bookseller.
- Search thoroughly—the 'zine locations are spread across the mainland, so bring a good travel method like Intervention or Mark/Recall.
