📋 About This Mod

Introduction

Many years ago, Kragenir's tower had been sealed by the Knights of the Silver Nose, but as they die, the seals weaken... Can you find the keys required to break the seals so you can face Kragenir inside the tower before he escapes? Or... Are you going to help him?

With over 100 new quests, 15+ new books and over 3000 lines of dialogue this mod will hopefully keep you entertained for many hours! Aside from a main quest series KDQ offers tons of new miscellaneous quests in Cyrodiil's original cities, villages and locations. Many generic vanilla NPCs and dungeons will now be a lot more interesting.

Special thanks go to WalkerInShadows for providing updates to the mod, for which I thank him very much! I (Povuholo) am still retired from modding.

Details

KDQ intends to make Cyrodiil a more interesting place. It does this by adding lots of new quests, dialogue, and some books.

These are the issues we found in the original game that we meant to fix with our mod:

  • []Too much handholding in quests: The quests introduced in the mod will make the player think and don't rely on constant quest markers. To compensate for this a detailed walkthrough is available.
    • []Generic vanilla characters: Many NPCs, especially those in villages, had almost no any unique dialogue or personality. With this mod they will be involved in new quests, and their background can be fleshed out further with the optional Rural Dialogue Additions plugin.
      • Generic vanilla dungeons: There are many dungeons in Oblivion, but the ones that are not involved in quests all feel the same. This mod uses a lot of these dungeons in quests, and some have had unique treasures added to them.

        KDQ consists of three elements:

        1. Kragenir's Death Quest: The Main Quest

        Kragenir's Death Quest is a very lengthy series of quests with a humorous tone. You'll find fairy tale (and other) real life references in the Main Quest,

        but always with an Elder Scrolls twist. For example, early on you'll be doing quests for Snow White and the seven Wood Elves. If that's not your cup of tea we offer the option to refuse the main quest right from the start.

        The first quests are intentionally simple to ease new players into the game, experienced players may find them rather basic. However we felt it was best to let new players in gently. From quest 5 onwards the quests grow increasingly complex, challenging and in our opinion intriguing.

        To start the main quest, simply sleep in a bed.

        2. Miscellaneous Quests

        Independent from the mod's main quest, a lot of new quests were added across the whole world in vanilla locatio
