📋 About This Mod
DESCRIPTION
Cult of Agnar is a quest that will take you from the depths of Riften to ancient and forgotten ruins lost in the Jerall Mountains.
After reading a note next to the entrance to the Bee and Barb in Riften, you will be sent on what seems to be a generic mission, only to find out there's more to it than expected. From there you will face mercenaries, ruthless cultists and undead guardians from times forgotten.
When designing a mod I like to try to make them fit into the vanilla game and seamlessly as possible and make feel like something that you would naturally come across while playing the game.
The quest is started by reading a note next to the entrance to the Bee and Barb.
There is also a second quest that can be started by reading a note on a bandit's body named Shulk.
This mod is recommended for level 15+ characters.
BACKGROUND OF THIS MOD
I was developing a much bigger mod that unfortunately was never able to be completed. I was left with a bunch of interior levels that I didn't want to go to waste so I made up the story for this. I am fully aware that the story isn't all that great, but I just didn't want the hours I spent making these levels go to waste. So feedback on the level design/gameplay would be much appreciated.
Cult of Agnar was first developed and released for the original version of Skyrim.
Compatibility
There are to compatibility issues that I know of. No DLC required. SKSE not required.
INSTALLATION
Use NMM or put the contents of the Cult of Agnar data folder into your Skyrim data folder.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community backing with 577 endorsements and over 17k downloads.
- Offers a multi-stage quest with varied environments, from city to mountains.
- Classic Skyrim dungeon-crawling with a dragon priest finale.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016, so it may not be fully compatible with newer Skyrim versions or mods.
- No detailed feature list, so you're going in somewhat blind on content depth.
- Potential conflicts with mods that alter Riften or the Jerall Mountains area.
For Skyrim players who enjoy lore-friendly quests with a mix of dungeon crawling and a dragon priest boss fight. If you're a completionist looking for new content in familiar areas, this fits. Skip if you prefer heavily scripted or voiced quests—this one's from 2016 and may feel dated.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to start the quest in Riften—look for a trigger or note to begin.
- Bring undead-slaying gear like silver weapons or fire spells for the guardians.
- If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file placement to avoid overwriting issues.
