📋 About This Mod
Version 1. 7 changes a script to ensure compatibility with OpenMW. No changes otherwise.
This means that 1. 6 and 1. 7 are identical, except that if you want to test the mod with OpenMW you will need 1. 7
This adds The Sable Dragon Inn, south of Hla Oad at the mouth of the Odai River.
There are 13 miscellaneous quests that you can find, and about 6 smaller mini-quests as well. Some of the smaller quests will rely on how well you explore the new areas, and how well you know Vvardenfell. Keep your eyes open, or you might miss them.
Hours of adventure and exploration, with new rewards for all types of characters.
Scripted events and traps.
Many new unique NPCs with dialog to read.
Suggested starting level 1-5, but enjoyable for all.
- Compatible (and recommended) with Vality's Bitter Coast mod, as long as it loads BEFORE The Sable Dragon.esp
- Compatible with Necessities of Morrowind, but it must load AFTER The Sable Dragon.esp
- Tested alongside many mods, and I found no conflicts..... (But this was back in 2009. Newer mods may conflict! Although exterior changes were kept to the minimum.)

This mod was cleaned with Enchanted Editor and TESTool. If you clean it with TESTool again, I suggest using Restricted Dialog cleaning.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 520 endorsements and 9k downloads.
- Adds a solid chunk of new quests for exploration fans.
- Quests are miscellaneous, so they fit naturally into the game.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2015 — may have compatibility issues with modern Morrowind setups.
- Quest content is limited to miscellaneous quests, not a full storyline.
For Morrowind veterans who have exhausted the vanilla quests and want more reasons to explore Vvardenfell. If you're a completionist or enjoy wandering the island, this adds extra content. Skip if you're looking for a major questline or gameplay overhauls.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's an older mod, use a mod manager like Wrye Mash or Mod Organizer 2 to keep your load order clean.
- Check for compatibility with other quest mods that touch the same areas, as conflicts can occur.
- If you're using OpenMW, test the mod early to ensure it works with your setup.
