Morrowind Forested

Forested Morrowind

Set in alternate Vvardenfell where the Blight, carried by the noxious volcano ashes affects plants and vegetable much less than humanoids and animals.

No more bleak wastelands, lava-rocks, and ash covered terrain. Now there are ancient forests and trees as far as the eye can see.

However, the Blight torment the land and its noxious ashes stain the island making life hard everywhere, but in the hospitable west and south.

Dozen of dialogue lines and books has been altered to reflect the new history.

“Why the northeastern forests are called ‘The Ashlands?’

I guess for an outlander like you it may sounds very confusing. The area got its name during the Second Era. A gigantic eruption leveled the area, killed almost everything, and covered it by ash. It happened centuries ago, but the Ashlanders remember the devastation like it happened yesterday; they still call the ravines ‘fire-rivers.’ It is not craziness we all know that the mountain can awake any moment.”

There are alternate versions, one that does not touch the barren regions of the island and makes no lore changes and one “lite” with fewer trees. The lite version is less taxing on the hardware and may be preferred if you find the normal one excessive.

More details

The following regions in Vvardenfell were altered (the regions with the star ★ are untouched in the lore-friendly version):

[]The Ashlands★: an enormous dense forest with a dense underbrush was added to the northern Ashlands, north of the Red Mountain. Other areas of the Ashlands were also forested or had a considerable number of trees added to them.

[]The Molag Amur★: hundreds of very tall and large trees were added to the Molag Amur, some in groups and others in spots here and there. The underbush and the tree model selection gives the area an ancient but dry feeling.

[]The Grazelands: many magical-looking and weird trees were added all across the area. The trees have been kept distant so the area does not feel like a forest, but more like a magical wood.

[]The Western Gash: several hundred trees were placed in this region as well, although an attempt was made to not overly forest this area.

[]The Red Mountain★: hundreds of heavy-looking trees with red leaves were added in the tight passages of the Red Mountain. Powerful and ancient trees capable to survive the blight.

[]The Sheogorad and the Azura Coast: the area was left 'as is' because most of the giant toadstools were eliminated from other areas of Vvardenfell. This makes the Sheogorad appear to be that much more alien and magical in comparison to the rest of the island, which is appropriate given that the Telvanni, and their giant mushroom towers, are located in those regions.

[*]Ascadian Isles: the giant toadstools were replaced with
