📋 About This Mod

Ever felt that for law breaking gang of thieves and robbers, finding their guild was as easy as walking into a building? You practically get asked to join before you even realise it's a thieves den! This mod aims to correct that. They're not as hard to find as the guild in Oblivion, but it'll take a little more care and winning of their trust to join them now.

Adds realistic individual cover 'backgrounds' for thieves in the South Wall, The Rat in the Pot and Dirty Muriel's.

(But only if you are not a member of the guild.)

Selecting the 'Thieves Guild' topic will not immediately get the response of 'Well hey, you should join us', even if you have the requirements - npcs must now have a disposition of 65+ as well.

Guild Masterminds will not initiate dialogue with you, a stranger, by saying 'Maybe you'd like to join the Thieves Guild'? Again, you'll need a disposition of 65+ to get this greeting.

If you are a member of the Legion, and wearing legion armour, Thieves will give you no information. Additionally, if you are a member of House Hlaalu, Thieves in Balmora will give you no information. Similarly, Thieves in Sadrith Mora will not talk to you if you are a member of House Telvanni.

Selecting the topic 'someone in particular' in Balmora or Sadrith Mora will no longer give you the name and location of a thieves guild leader. Maybe Beth's idea was that they were well-known criminals but the guards didnt have any evidence on them or somesuch, but I prefer it this way.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community favorite with 706 endorsements and nearly 60k downloads.
  • Tiny, focused mod that does exactly what it says without bloat.
  • Adds immersion for players who spend a lot of time in the Ragged Flagon.

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2020, so it may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim version or other mods that alter those interiors.
  • Only affects three locations, so it's a minor visual tweak rather than a major overhaul.
  • No screenshots or detailed description provided, so you're flying blind on what the backgrounds actually look like.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who want to add a bit more life to the Thieves Guild hideouts without overhauling the whole game. If you're a completionist who likes to notice small details, this is a nice touch. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes or major visual overhauls.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's a simple mod, just drop the files into your Data folder or use your mod manager's install feature.
  • If you use other mods that change the Ragged Flagon or Riften interiors, load this mod after them to ensure its changes take effect.
  • Check the mod's posts section for any compatibility notes, as the author hasn't provided detailed instructions.
