📋 About This Mod
IMPERIAL CITY MANOR By Elora QwkSilvr Version 1. 0 DESCRIPTION ************** Tired of that tiny shack on the water front? This mod has a manor house accessed from both the Elven Gardens District and two outside private gates. A walled estate in grand style complete with a small man made pond. The manor supplies plenty of storage and display areas for all your hard earned loot. A road leads to the manor from the Talos entrance past the Chestnut Handy Stables. The manor estate is taken care of by two trust-worthy caretakers, Darius & Lea Weldman, a husband and wife who have led an adventurous life and now have settled down and are happy to watch your home while you are gone. A NightBlade, Lea Weldman is trained in magic and spells. Look for her in the caretaker\'s cottage secret chamber. While in the chamber she will sell you spells and potions and repair you magic weapons & armor. Darius Weldman will repair your armor and weapons while in the Manor Basement, in the black smith corner, and while he is in the stables. Other times they can be found in the Imperial City in the various districts but do not offer any services. Shady Sam I found loitering on the property. He agreed to watch the manor stables and as such is residing in his own shack outside the west gate. He now has a life of his own and even ventures out into the Imperial City at times. There is a “spoiler file” if you can’t figure out a few things. Any part of this mod, Imperial City Manor, you may take and recreate, the only thing I ask is to give me credit for my work. CONTACT INFORMATION ************** This is my first release; I have checked the mod over many times but if you have any issues and need to ask questions my email address is dancing_raven2004@yahoo.com I will try to reply and help with any problems you may have, otherwise I can be found on the Bethesda Forums for the Oblivion Construction Set. CREDITS ************* The fireplaces and their corresponding chimneys are courtesy of JDFan, thank you very much for permission to use them in this mod. Thank you to everyone on the Bethesda Construction Set Forum who came to my rescue by answering all the questions I posted. Without you this mod would probably never have been published. NOTE ************ If you have any mod that adds to or changes the area outside the walls from where the Elven Gardens would be from the Chestnut Handy Stables on down to \"Sinkhole Cave\" enterance then this mod will conflict with them. If someone has taken and changed what Shady Sam does that also might conflict. Imperial City Manor is compatable with the \"Cyrodiil Transportation Network Mod\". INSTALL *************** Unpack the data folder into you Oblivion Directory and check the Imperial City Manor.esp. C:\\Program Files\\Bethesda Softworks\\Oblivion\\Data is the default location. You can also do a manual install by unpacking to
Imperial City Manor adds a grand walled estate to the Imperial City, accessible from the Elven Gardens District and two private gates. It features a manor house and a small man-made pond, offering a luxurious alternative to the waterfront shack. This is a classic Oblivion player home mod from 2009.

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's an older mod, use a mod manager like Oblivion Mod Manager or Wrye Bash to avoid overwriting conflicts.
- Check the mod's file structure after download—if it's a loose file, place it in your Data folder; if it's an .esp, activate it in the launcher.
- If you're using the Steam version, ensure you've enabled mods in the launcher and consider using the Oblivion Script Extender for stability.
