📋 About This Mod
Mod works as intended, so don't expect any updates.
I don't develop old mods any more.

:: Dovahkiin's Vault ::
A storage vault hidden away in The Throat of the World. Only accessible with Clear Skies shout.
Made by a request from a donor of mine, with this philosophy:
"I have a Dragonborn who has a very particular sense of duty, and not only being in possession of so many dodgy artifacts
(The Elder Scrolls, the various Daedric relics, the Black Books, Auriel's Bow, Staff of Magnus, the Dragon Priest masks, etc...),
but also storing them near ordinary people and loved ones goes against their moral code to an incredible degree.
What I've been looking for is a storage vault. Not something sprawling and lavish (and stilted towards the Scrooge McDuck aesthetic,
as many of the existing vault mods are.) I'm looking for something small, protected. A hidden cave or concealed ruin maybe.
No living quarters necessary. Just a place a Dragonborn could lock away all the more compromising pieces of their life away,
to keep them out of the hands of the people they protect on the daily.
Something wholly for an RP aspect, clearly, but it would stop the severe disconnect I experience watching their
spouse sweep the floor in front of the Masque of Clavicus Vile."
:: REQUIREMENTS ::
- Skyrim up to date
- Dawnguard DLC
- Dragonborn DLC
The vault key can be found on a skeleton near Paarthunaax's perching place.
Clicking the key in your inventory will lock the door to the vault.
It's also surrounded by those freezing winds you need Clear Skies for, so not easy to get to!
Inside you will find 8 mannequins and 8 basic weapon plaques, 6 weapon racks and 3 shield racks and some cupboards and chests, all these for generic loot.
In addition to unnamed storage, there are unique item displays for:
- All Dragon Priest masks
- All claws
- Gem Paragons
- All Daedric artifacts (display case and armour stands)
- Auriel's items
- Harkon's Sword
- Bloodskaal Blade
- Ysgramor's items
- Haknir's scimitars
