Tel Uvirith LITE

Tel Uvirith Lite!

Part of the Morrowind May Modathon Month 2018!

A barren ashland. Flickers of fire crackle in dry air, lifted by the heat rising from lava streams. Dead bones lie buried in salty sands. Molag Amur, a place that no one ever goes to, that no one ever leaves. The place that you've decided to live in. But is it truly that easy? Will dangers of the ashlands leave once you've stepped inside your fortress? Or will new, unexpected troubles arise? Will you uncover many secrets of new Tel Uvirith, or perish to cruel traps inside dark passages of your own home? Find out in this little plugin!

The Telvanni stronghold of Tel Uvirith is a very moody, intense place. Still, it is not perfect. Many modders made their tweaks to it, making it as grand as Telvanni Archmagister home should be. But there are mages who just want a neat, cozy abode; something simple, but pleasant. While still keeping the feeling of atmospheric, removed fortress, I've given my best to do exactly that.

This plugin will change both exterior and interior of Tel Uvirith. On the outside, it will add some new roots and mushrooms to, to be fair, rather dull-looking tower player was offered. Also, at the last stage of Tel Uvirith's construction it will grow two more cozy houses, both with a purpose. On the inside the tower will be expanded - many new shelves, misc decorative items, lights and Dwemeri guardians will make it look fresh and cozy. Even the root that made flying in Tower Upper so troublesome has been removed now! But this is not all that's there to it...

The deeper you descend in your tower, the more dark roots of magic and Telvanni mindset will show themselves. You will find series of chests with keys unlocking each other. Cursed books with cursed spells. Enchanted amulets that take just as much as they give. Traps and secret passages both are waiting for you there, in deep parts of the tower.

Many areas were given a story to tell. You can find flavour documents explaining those stories in most new areas. I've tried my best to keep everything lore-friendly, but in case you don't like them, you can enchant them - capacity is not that amazing, but is well enough for scrolls. The cursed books with spells also tell stories, but are included in special addon, so you may choose to omit them.

But overall not that much is changed; I've mostly added things, so original architecture and furniture are untouched, thus ensuring some level of compatibility. Obscure Books, Holidays of Tamriel and many such mods don't need any patches. The home is very compact; I hope you'll like it.
