The Rat in the Pot Expansion
by Endify
Version 1. 1
============
Description
============
The Rat in the Pot Expansion is an atmosperic expansion of the thieves guild hideout in Ald-ruhn.
It changes and details the establishment and it adds in a semi-hidden basement. Aengoth the Jewler has been moved to the basement so he's more concealed.
The mod also adds in 2 new flavour documents, one is a regular document whereas the other is coded. It uses a Vignere cipher (Like most vanilla coded documents). The key can be found in the end of the readme, though I encourage you to try and decipher the document yourself.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Adds fresh life to a classic hideout—great for Morrowind veterans who know Ald-ruhn by heart.
- Small but dedicated following (33 endorsements) suggests it does what it promises.
- Lightweight and focused: no bloat, just a tighter, more atmospheric thieves' den.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2022, so it might clash with newer mods or engine patches.
- Only 460 downloads—this is a niche pick, not a must-have for everyone.
For Morrowind players who want to breathe new life into the Thieves Guild hideout without overhauling the whole game. If you're a lore-hunter or roleplayer who spends time in Ald-ruhn, this adds atmosphere. Skip if you're after gameplay changes or major content—this is a cosmetic/environmental tweak.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the Morrowind Code Patch or OpenMW for stability, as older mods can be finicky.
- If you're using a mod manager like Wrye Mash, install this after your main overhaul mods to avoid conflicts.
- Check the mod's file structure—if it's a simple .esp, just drop it into your Data Files folder and activate it in the launcher.
