Knights of the Garter

Update!: New optional download available for those that wish to bypass the questline to gain access to the castle and gear.

Description

The castle of Rorikshire is located near the town of Rorikstead, on the western border of Whiterun Hold.   Strategically positioned atop the road from Solitude, Rorikshire commands the access to Whiterun's western regions.

This keep houses many features, from barracks and storage to stables and smithing area.  Acting as the seat of the  local Lord as well as the Order of the Garter, Rorikshire is only accessable by those acknowledged as peers.

Download the 'Custom Heraldry Templates' file, listed under Miscellaneous, for pre-configured Photoshop files.  These files have been setup with the goal of making it a relatively simple and user friendly process to create your own heraldic textures.  Once the texture is finished and exported as a . DDS file, it can replace a placeholder file.  Instructions for this are included in the 'Template' file.

Feel free to upload your own pictures!
