📋 About This Mod



Think it's odd that there's a legal assassination practice in Morrowind, yet no matter how much trouble the player causes, there's never a writ for the player? If so, you're on the right mod page.

-If the player meets certain conditions, they will be assaulted by the Morag Tong in the same manner as Tribunal's Dark Brotherhood.

-Like the Dark Brotherhood, there are 5 ranks of assassins that are based on player level.

-There are multiple NPCs with leveled items for each rank, so there will be some variety in the attacks.

-Support for various mods to make the assassins use gear from said mods

  • []If the player has a bounty of 500 or more, there is a chance the Morag Tong will attack on rest.[/]

    []If you are a high-enough level to fight the level 20 or level 30 Morag Tong assassins, you may be attacked by more than one.[/]

    []If you are rank 8 or 9 of the Morag Tong, you will never be assaulted.[/]

    []Mournhold, Sotha Sil, and a few other plot-sensible locations are safe from Morag Tong attacks.[/]

    []If you clear your bounty, you will no longer be assaulted.[/]

    []If you complete a quest for a great house in a manner that would upset another great house, the Morag Tong will come after you once per quest.[/]

    []The Morag Tong only operate within Morrowind, so Solstheim and Cyrodiil are safe.[/]

    []Includes an optional plugin that requires that the player be a member of one of the great houses and climb the ranks a bit before they can be attacked.[/]

    Plugins available for the following mods:

    Each rank is visually distinct and will use equipment from any of the supported optional mods you have installed.

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

This immersion mod for Morrowind makes the Morag Tong, the game's assassin guild, actively hunt the player when certain conditions are met. With 70 endorsements and over 11,000 downloads, it's a niche addition for players seeking more danger and reactive factions. The mod is lightweight and focused on a single gameplay mechanic.

✨ Key Features

Adds Morag Tong assassins that hunt the player under specific conditions.
Integrates with the base game's faction system for immersive encounters.
Lightweight mod with a focused scope, no major overhauls.
Active development as of December 2024.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Tiny but dedicated following (70 endorsements) — the kind of mod that adds real tension to a playthrough.
  • Simple concept that fits perfectly into Morrowind's world — getting hunted by the Morag Tong is lore-friendly and scary.
  • Over 11,000 downloads show it's got traction despite being niche.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only one mechanic — if you're not into being hunted, this mod does nothing else.
  • Last updated in December 2024 — could conflict with other mods that alter Morag Tong or faction behavior.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Morrowind veterans who want a fresh threat and enjoy reactive factions. If you're a completionist who's already done everything, this adds a new layer of danger. Skip if you prefer a chill playthrough or don't want to deal with assassin ambushes.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's a Morrowind mod, make sure you have the Morrowind Code Patch or OpenMW for stability — this mod likely relies on script extensions.
  • If you're using a mod manager like Wrye Mash or Mod Organizer 2, install it there to keep your Data Files clean.
  • Check your load order — place this mod after any mods that alter Morag Tong or faction quests to avoid conflicts.
