📋 About This Mod

The Imperial Legion maintains a border wall between Dragonstar East, ruled by Jarl Jona the Ansei-Ender, and Dragonstar West, a Crown holding surrounded almost entirely by the Kingdom of the Reach.  Residents of the cities are forbidden from crossing the wall due to threats of constant violence, something they know too well.  Outside the cities, life goes on for the Reachmen of the Alovach and Taliesinn tribes; however, they keep one ear to the ground. If war were to again break out in Dragonstar, they would inevitably be dragged in...

Dragonstar West's Guild of Mages chapter, distrusted by the local population, struggles to maintain its image and waning membership. The Thieves Guild has its eyes on some big prizes and is rumored to be holed up in Dragonstar East.  The Dragonstar Arena is filled with nervous spectators hungry for combatants to offer a distraction from every-day life...

Beyond the walls, the Reach is as dangerous as ever.  Merchants continue to be attacked by bandits and Reachmen, ferocious beasts stalk the forests and mesas, and bound servants patrol the fortresses of both Clan Direnni and the First Era Nords...

The Skyrim: Home of the Nords Team is proud to present another release in our efforts to create the province of Skyrim as envisioned in the world of TESIII: Morrowind. It represents the work of many talented modders over the past years and includes the following features:

- 100+ quests, including new regional questlines for the Imperial Guilds, bounty hunting, and miscellaneous quests

- 290+ exterior cells of hand-crafted landscape.

- 330+ interior cells, including the massive cities of Karthwasten and Dragonstar, towns, camps, and dozens of locations for you to loot in classic TES fashion.

- Specially-modeled exterior and interior assets to flesh out the settlements of the Reach, including Reachman camps, Direnni ruins, and ancient fortresses.

- New books, armor, clothing, weapons, and more.

Notes and FAQ - Please Read!

Skyrim: Home of the Nords is a fan project for The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind to build Skyrim inside of the Morrowind engine and worldspace. The project exists under the umbrella of the Project Tamriel team, which includes Project Cyrodiil and other in-development province mods.

The Skyrim of Skyrim: Home of the Nords is our own interpretation, rather than a copy of Bethesda's work in TESV Skyrim. Based on lore from Morrowind, the Pocket Guides to the Empire, and other sources,

we have based our creation on what you might expect from having played TESIII rather than later games in the series.
