📋 About This Mod
The Vault of Maraf
by: venjhammet
In the east of Falkreath lies an ancient Nordic ruins called Bonegrim Hollow where a powerful necromancer was buried and locked away in a vault. A group of cultists ventured within the catacomb depths in the hope of capturing and enslaving a powerful dead warrior, however, their plan went awry and they were all slaughtered. Now it is up to you to investigate the ruins and to discover their fate.
Important things to take note of:
1. this mod uses vanilla assets only
2. radiant quest-enabled dungeon
3. A high-level dungeon filled with tougher enemies, at least level 20 is required
4. dungeon has three (3) highly detailed large cells
5. Some enemy npc uses default stats except for a few bosses who have their stats
6. compatible with all of my Standalone Dungeons, Reworked Dungeons, Hammet Dungeon Pack, New Vominheim and Valefrost.
7. no port request to console. I will port them myself soon.
7. also available on Legendary Edition or Oldrim
8. Requires SE with v1. 5. 97. 0. 8. Can be used for AE v1. 6. 353., v1. 6. 640, GOG version, v1. 6. 1130. 0. 8, and the latest 1. 6. 1170. 0. 8. This mod is not SKSE-dependent.
Incompatibility issue:

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community backing with 580 endorsements and 46k downloads—people are playing this.
- Lore-rich premise that fits Skyrim's dark fantasy vibe.
- Last updated in January 2023, so it's relatively recent and likely maintained.
⚠️ Cons
- No explicit compatibility info—could conflict with other dungeon overhauls or mods that edit the same area.
- No version details provided, so you might need to check for patches if you run a heavy mod list.
- Only one dungeon, so it's a short experience—not a full quest mod.
For Skyrim players who love exploring new dungeons with a creepy backstory and don't mind a focused, single-location experience. If you're after a massive questline or gameplay overhauls, this isn't it—it's a dungeon add-on.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to install and manage load order easily.
- Check for compatibility patches if you use other mods that alter the same region (Bonegrim Hollow).
- Make sure you have Skyrim Special Edition, not the original Skyrim, as this is SE-specific.
