📋 About This Mod

by Melchior Dahrk

These robes were originally made for my Lyithdonea project, but I decided to release them as a standalone mod for Modathon 2018. The concept behind this mod is both to improve gameplay by providing a useful alternative to armor for mages as well as to provide an immersive experience by adding a uniform to mages guild members. Many Mages Guild members will now wear the new robes and the player can acquire the robes through quests and purchase.

  • []19 mage robe variants

    []A robe for every magic school with Novice and Master variants

    []Generic robes for Novice, Master, and Arch-Mage

    []Toggle the hood on or off for every robe

    []New quest and dungeon with unique loot to acquire the Arch-Mage's Robe

    []Mage robes added to vanilla NPCs via script for immersion

    []Obtain mage robes as rewards for vanilla quests and achieving rank milestones

    []Purchase mage robes from Guild Provisioner NPC (rank/skill requirements)

    []Maximum compatibility (no vanilla NPCs or dialogue are edited by the mod)

    []Mage robes have magicka fortifying enchantments to provide utility for magic user gameplay

    []Meet a quirky new companion character on your quest for the Arch-Mage's robe

    []Automatic compatibility for mod-added Mages Guild members in your game

  • PSDs included in separate download as a Modder's Resource

    To toggle your hood, drop the robe and pick it back up. A message will appear giving you the option to use/remove your hood.

    Robe quality:

    Novice Robes Fortify Maximum Magicka 0. 2x Intelligence and Fortify their respective skills by 10 points, constant effect.

    Master Robes Fortify Maximum Macgicka 0. 5x Intelligence and Fortify their respective skills by 20 points, constant effect.

    As stated above, the goal for this mod is to provide magic users with a viable alternative to using armor. Now instead of Armor Rating, mages can rely on enhanced magicka pools for casting. This mod stands well on its own but would pair well with a mod that rewards mages for using unarmored (see Recommendations section below).

    Generic robes:

    After you join the mages guild, talk to the Wizard of the Guildhall (who you joined with) about "member of the mages guild" to receive your generic novice robes. Once you are a wizard, you can talk to any other wizard about "member of the mages guild" again to receive your Master Robes.

    Purchased robes:

    After you become at least a Journeyman, you can talk to the new provisioner NPC in the Caldera Guild of Mages to purchase novice robes for each school. Once you are a wizard, you can purchase master robes from the provisioner. You must have a skill level of 20 in each schoo
