📋 About This Mod
This is a test release, mainly meant to supply new meshes to the modding community. At the current stage, no quests are implemented. The following description applies to the (not yet released) 1. 0 version of the Griffon Fortress! In the east of Cyrodiil, there stands a powerful and mighty castle. Once built to protect and govern the eastern part of the land, the mighty fortress was overtaken by a mighty foe. Not by swords it fell. But by treachery. Since the day when the last steward of the fortress opened the doors for the enemies of the emperor, the very enemies he had sworn to fight, the fortress remained their headquarter. No Imperial army could overthrow their reign in the eastern mountains, and thus Cyrodiil is deprived from the rich deposits of iron and other minerals from the eastern mountains. In a time of war and change, it has been decided that the fortress has to be claimed for the glory of the empire. But who will dare to try what many have failed to do before? Can YOU achieve the impossible?
The Griffon Fortress is a vast player-owned castle in eastern Cyrodiil, featuring over 180 custom castle meshes and a dwarven city. It is a modder's resource, allowing use of its custom meshes with proper credit. With 698 endorsements and 24,751 downloads, it's a well-received build for Oblivion players seeking a grand estate.
