📋 About This Mod
Name: Mafreseli Dungeon and Player Home Version: 2. 0 Date: 8/14/2011 Category: Buildings Requirements: Oblivion Patch 1. 2. 0. 416, Shivering Isles, Oblivion Script Extender (OBSE), Borders Disabled Author(s): AurianaValoria1 Source: TESNexus Description =========== In answer to David Brasher\'s call for more dungeons, I give you Mafreseli! This mod adds a massive dungeon, and eventual player home, to the mountains north of Dive Rock. THIS MOD REQUIRES OBSE TO WORK! THIS MOD REQUIRES SHIVERING ISLES! THIS MOD REQUIRES BORDERS TO BE DISABLED! THIS MOD MAY CAUSE A FRAMERATE HIT ON LOWER END PCs! THIS MOD IS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR CHARACTERS BELOW LEVEL 25! Details ======= The Arcane University recently dispatched a team of scholars and excavators to an Ayleid site far to the north...and they have not been heard from since. It is up to you to discover what fate befell these archaeologists. Mafreseli, or \"The Halls of Frost\" in the Ayleid tongue, is a dungeon full of traps and treasure. However, none of the enemies or containers respawn, so when it is cleared out, it is yours to keep. This place is filled with secrets, so search well! The enemies here are NOT leveled, the highest one being level 40. Even with a high-level character, be sure to equip yourself with adequate potions and scrolls. Mafreseli includes: 1) A bed with room for a companion. 2) A healing altar similar to the Altar of the Nine. 3) A teleportation spell to return whenever desired. 4) Enchanting and Spellmaking altars. 5) New enchanted armor and weapons. Only one set of armor (worn by two NPCs) requires Roberts Male Body and/or HGEC to work. The other sets cover from head to toe, and may be worn by any body type. 6) New items, including special Varla and Welkynd Stones and priceless Ayleid statues. 7) New, very bright torches, called \"Mafre Latta.\" 8) Many nonrespawning storage containers. A map marker for Mafreseli will appear on your map when you launch the game. You will need to travel to Dive Rock first, though, as you have not \"found\" the place yet. I highly recommend visiting Mafreseli at night sometime. :) Please post your screenies of your characters at Mafreseli! It would tickle me pink to see them there! :D Install ======= 1. Extract the files to a temporary location, such as the desktop. 2. Examine the folder structure and make corrections where necessary. 3. Copy files to (install folder)\\Oblivion\\Data\\ 4. Start Oblivion Launcher, click \'Data Files\', place a checkmark beside the .esp file(s). Uninstall ========= 1. Start Oblivion Launcher, click Data Files, uncheck the .esp file(s). 2. Delete the files/folders associated with the mod. These files would be: Oblivion\\Data\\Meshes\\AuriV1\\Mafreseli Oblivion\\Data\\Textures\\AuriV1\\Mafreseli Oblivion\\Data\\Textures\\Menus\\Icons\\AuriV1\\Mafreseli Incompatibility =============== None that I know of.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community support with 194 endorsements and over 4,000 downloads.
- Adds both a dungeon and a player home in one mod, giving you a reason to explore and a place to settle.
- Simple concept that fits neatly into the vanilla game world without overhauling anything.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2011 — likely outdated and may have compatibility issues with current Skyrim versions.
- Only one location means limited content for the download size.
For Skyrim players who want a small, self-contained dungeon to explore and a potential home base without major overhauls. If you're a completionist looking for every nook and cranny, this might be a neat find. Skip if you expect a fully fleshed-out quest or high-polish dungeon design.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since the mod is from 2011, make sure to check if it works with your Skyrim version (especially if you're on Special Edition or Anniversary Edition).
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install and easily disable if issues arise.
- Visit the location after leveling up a bit — the dungeon might have leveled enemies, so be prepared.
