📋 About This Mod
Back in the day, when I first played Morrowind with my vampire, big Basil the Bastard, he lived in this amazing Daedric mansion. In all of my fanfiction, he lived in it. Nearly 20 years later, I found the mod again, but by then, I had elaborated quite a bit in details within those stories. As I am playing Morrowind again, I thought I'd update this mod to reflect that. I hope, should Trylobit ever see this, that he will like what I've done with it, and how much it has featured in my Morrowind experience.
This is my personal tweaked version of Trylobit's Daedra Manor, which I have added to, in order to make it match more closely how I describe it in many of my Basil the Bastard novels. I have always loved this mod, it suited the old buzzard perfectly and it has always been a mainstay of my game. Trylobit described this as 'just another house mod, but one with a lot of options' and I've always loved its unique feel. Most of its options are still intact. I had done this once before, but lost everything in a hard drive crash along with basil. Now, 15 years on, I'm playing the game again, remade Basil and remaking his home! Mostly, the changes are just the house being 'poshed' up, because Basil loves luxury. I went for a combination of evil and luxurious.
I've tried not to clutter it up too much to allow the player to add their own stuff from furnishing mods and suchlike. I've tried to reach a compromise between furnishing it and keeping some space free for anyone using furnishing mods that allow the player to place furnishings in-game.
Quest to obtain full ownership of the house and most other scripts are unchanged. Some of the enemies are tough, you have been warned! Read everything.
I have changed some of the house guards to male for more variety and dressed them in Daedric armour that can't be removed, to avoid the player just taking it if they die. I removed the dancers and the gate guards are now Dremora, as often mentioned in my stories.
Cats!
Cats now wander around the house as Basil always loved cats and they keep the vermin down. They are textured and named after my own cats, now all deceased.
The mansion is a complete structure in Daedric style for the player, probably the most complete Daedric structure in Vvardenfell. Location is in the Foyada Ashur-dan about horizontal from Ghostgate. Or in normal language: SW of Stronghold Falensarano. I've included a map showing its exact location as it's quite out of the way (just as Basil prefers!).
This house contains guards, a bedroom with amenities, lots of storage space, many Daedric statues, a swimming pool, study, dining room, a little garden, an arena, armor mannequins, a torture room, teleportation t
