📋 About This Mod
Ordinators from Morrowind - NPCs
Description
I really love the mod made by Cryos and SPARTAN VI, bringing an Morrowind Ordinator to the Oblivion world.
The Cryos mod, adds the Ordinators armor for sale at IC Best Defense. It also added a few Ordinator patrols in the Imperial City. One in the Palace and other in the Market District. But they are common vanilla Imperials guards, and their voices breaks the immersion.
So there is when I decide to "upgrade" this NPCs, giving them the original Morrowind Ordinator voice. Also I changed the Ordinator at the Palace to be an High Ordinator, with the textures created by Zenith92.
The original Morrowind Ordinator voice mp3 files are NOT included in this pack, copyrights reasons, so you must have your own Morrowind installation to play this. Please see the "Install" section.
I also changed the stats of the Ordinators, now they are unleveled, essential and almost impossible to kill. Now you'll fell the same fear when you crossed an Ordinator path in Morrowind! :D
Locations
-
[]You can buy both heavy and light versions of this armor at the Imperial City Market District: The Best Defense.
