📋 About This Mod
All new locations full of mage-themed loot
Brand new architecture
Lore-friendly
ESL Flagged and Patched
One of the weird things I found about Skyrim was that there was very little proof that mages really set up shop. This mod aims to change that by adding in 5 new mage-themed towers that have since been abandoned after the dissolution of the Mages Guild near the beginning of the 4th era as many had been operating under the guild to share and conduct their own research. I have tried my best to show each previous owner as having different personalities and lifestyles through environmental storytelling which I hope everyone will appreciate. Each tower has it's own loot, skill-books, spell tomes, staves, etc.
One is on the throat of the world in a little valley near Ivarstead
Two is over in Falkreath Hold near Twilight Sepulcher
Three is in the Reach Near Bthardamz
Four is nearby to Clearpine Pond
Five is somewhere in the Morthal Swamp
This has been navmeshed, has map markers and has a few patches ready to go right off the bat. There may be some other minor mods that need patching in which case please let me know and I'll see what I can do.
