This project aims to bring Tamriel to Oblivion, making use of existing projects and mods, adding to them and linking them together. Here I try to explain how everything fits together.
Start anywhere
Wolf Tamriel consists of Cyrodiil, Morroblivion, Elsweyr Anequina and TWMP: Skyrim, Hammerfell, High Rock, Summerset Isles, Black Marsh, Valenwood. It covers every province known to man and mer, but doesn’t venture further across the ocean to mythical places not fully understood. Not every province is equally well developed either, but there is a start everywhere.
Start in a province of your choice, depending on the mods in your load order. It is not required to have the entire Tamriel loaded to use this mod.
Maps and UI is a collection of modules tweaking the vanilla interface, plus Tamriel and Morroblivion maps, static and dynamic.
Province mods
These are mods for the various provinces, Cyrodiil included.
Cyrodiil
There is a vast amount of mods for Cyrodiil, so did I really have to add to it? Probably not, but as is usually the case, you download a bunch of mods, you try them out, you find some of it conflicting and none being exactly like what you had in mind… And so you make your own.
Morroblivion
A series of mods for Morroblivion, from tweaks to city modules and maps. More will be added as I play it, no doubt.
The Northern provinces
My main focus is Skyrim, it has to be said. TWMP Skyrim Alive is what drives this area. The Northern Provinces comprise Skyrim, High Rock and Hammerfell, with parts of continental Morrowind just East of the Skyrim border, plus Solstheim.
The Southern provinces
Both Elsweyr and Valenwood have options, previously forcing you to choose between Elsweyr Pelletine and Valenwood Improved. I didn’t want to choose and made a unifying patch TWMP Southern Alliance. Having unified the land, I went exploring it, which resulted in a couple of quest mods. These will eventually grow, when I venture South again.
The Shivering Isles
Just a few small mods for this realm for now, to complement the two companions based there. The story is a prominent one for Lena though, so more development will eventually emerge, with the blessings of the Madgod.
The Summerset Isles
Nothing so far! TWMP Summerset Isles has landscapes and some cities, and is a ready canvas for development. There is a major story to take place there in Wolf Tamriel… some day.
Traits, factions and occupations
Wolf Tamriel makes some changes and additions to the traits and occupations of various characters. These new traits are then used in quests or simply enjoyed as a part of the game.
Basic Utilities
A few things that I like to have the same for every game. These are custom merges based on existing mods with my additions and modifications.
Companions
Lena’s Companions is my own companion framework with dedicated companions – specific characters from Lena’s stories. They often draw on other games, have quests and property, new skills and gear, available to the player depending on your choices. You can also play as some of these characters. It all takes place in Wolf Tamriel and is therefore related.
Recessive Vampirism
It is what is left over after you’ve taken the cure for vampirism. You’re cured, you’re mortal again, you no longer crave blood… until a wraith hits you with a chilling curse, making your vampirism flare up. It isn’t completely gone, it has become recessive. Lena suffers from it. She caught vampirism at the very start, before I could figure out how the game worked, and suddenly there she was, a vampire at level 1… She went through the entire Oblivion Crisis that way, it was a long long time before the Count of Skingrad trusted her enough to hint at a cure. All that experience really shaped her character, and I cannot leave it out of the story even when I start a new game. Something had to remain after that, it isn’t just your common cold. And so with Lena vampirism became recessive.
Mages and assassins
Lena is an assassin. She didn’t mean to become one, but a vampire doesn’t have many choices in the Empire of Tamriel. She was but sixteen when she turned… The Dark Brotherhood and the Mages Guild were the only people to treat her like a human being and not a vile monster, and that rather shaped her affiliations. Even the Blades sneered at her, Hero of Kvatch and Bruma or not. Especially the Blades… And for this reason both the Dark Brotherhood and the Mages Guild get a special treatment and attention in my mods, mostly as yet unreleased. There is also a story of Kvatch in the making, Kvatch many years after the Crisis. Perhaps breaking the Amulet of Kings was not the smartest thing the new Emperor could do…
Sheogorath’s Champion
Among the Daedric Princes she became known as Sheogorath’s Champion and later a sitting Lord Sheogorath for the time until Prince Sheogorath returned (note the distinction between Lord and Prince). Sanguine, Hircine and Vermina practically moved into the Shivering Isles during her reign and found the place to their liking. Namira… well, yes, there is a story with Namira as well, Nocturnal, too, and Molag Bal of course as well, and all of them feature in the stories, and some of them will feature in the mods.
Witcher in Cyrodiil
Lena’s brother Geralt of Rivia eventually makes his way to Tamriel with Witcher in Cyrodiil. He joins her in her travels, but also has his own story to tell – rumour has it that Hircine had summoned him for the Great Hunt of the current Era. Which side will Geralt be on? More mods will follow to tell that story (and of course play The Bloodmoon in Morroblivion).
There’s more… but this page is getting too long. Read about Lena’s companions on their respective pages.
