📋 About This Mod
An elegant and cozy fighter's stronghold!
Onyx Holdfast
-A tribute to Fighter's Stronghold-
"Seek strength ... the rest will follow!"
For years now I've attempted to make a good Skyrim equivalent to Oblivion's fighter's stronghold, and it's been a challenge.
Ivarstead is also a lovely little hamlet, and although there are a few good mods out there, I've decided to use the real-estate southward.
Here, we have a cozy 3-story castle for noble warriors, with plenty of storage and style!
SE version - requires only the primary DLCs.
The key to the Holdfast is in the abandoned satchel under the stables.
Works perfectly with most Ivarstead mods!
Castle Includes:
- Several weapon racks, displays, and mannequins
- Crafting stations in the stable, enchanting stations in the master suite
- Unique complimentary assets for a Fort Dawnguard feel
- Functioning portcullis (but not the mechanism in the gatehouse)
- Unique banners made by ClefJ, styled from Lothric's sigil from Dark Souls 3
- Immersive location south of Ivarstead on the river
- Resource-Lite special decor
- Several beds for followers
- Stylized rooms and furniture placement
- Works with MHIYH and Hearthfire Multiple Adoption in mind for followers (does not come staffed)!
2. 0 Update
- Updated interior, combining separate cells into one!
- Additional storage and display!
- Minor fixes all around!
It is suggested to use this link if you are using older versions of Skyrim.
- Seemingly incompatible with Autumngate - A Believable Player Home
If there's anything that needs to be edited, or if there are any compatibility issues, please let me know
I hope you enjoy!
