- the Redoran Guards are now equipped with the Bonemold Guard Armor
- the Arano family now got their own manor, since Adril Arano is second chancelor of Raven Rock

on it´s feets.

Changes in Tel Mithryn:
- as one of the last Telvanni strongholds it is now surrounded by (de)fences formed from roots
