ORIGINAL MOD

by Borjoyzee

Welcome to the Undercity, a new city located entirely underground. Has just about nearly everything a city should have and one would expect. I grew tired of travelling from city to city looking for the things I needed, not to mention travelling from city to city trying to sell all the items in my inventory. That's the main focus of this mod, the merchants, and they sell more than your average merchant in your average city. Although there is a little more to the place which I will describe in greater detail a little later. There are also NPC's wandering around, but for now these guys are there just to flesh out the city and give it that little bit of life, I plan on giving them simple quests in later versions. All in all there are around 32 new cells, and even more NPC's. The entrance to the city is located west of Whiterun, you will be able to see the map marker but not able to fast travel to it, and is situated on a small mountain (See screenshots for location).

Some merchants sell items that were not usually playable but given new ID's so not to conflict with anything, and some like the weapon and armour merchant sell unenchanted version of Daedric items. There are merchants for just about everything and all start their routines from 8 in the morning until 8 in the evening:

Garr's Bookshoppe - Sells a more extensive range of books. (I could never find the full sets for the likes of A Dance in Fire.) Also sells the rest of the books from Oblivion not included in Skyrim. Started on Morrowind books, but there's still more to do. In his collection he owns a book detailing all the skill-trainers in Skyrim.

Blacksmith - Only sells ore, ingots and animal pelts, all the things for crafting.

Haileys Apothecary - Sells potions and ingredients. Also sells potions for increasing your attributes (Health, Magicka, Stamina and Carry Weight) by 10. These are expensive (speechcraft affects the price) and she doesn't sell a lot. On a table are 6 potion combiners, here you can combine health and magicka potions into one elixir that has both effects. For example a weak health and a weak magicka potion can be combined to make an weak elixir that restores both health and magicka. There's one for every strength of potion, weak to ultimate.

A Cut Above - Mostly clothing, well all clothing. And some items which are not usua
