Dunmer vs Nords

Post » Thu Jul 12, 2012 11:42 am

I was thinking about expanding the hatred witnessed in windhelm. A new civil war.

A high ranking noble nord is drunk one night, as he stumbles out of candlehearth hall he sees a dunmer reading what looks to be a map. The nord attacks the dunmer out of pure hatred of the race and ends up killing him. This sparks a war amongst the dumner and the nords within windhelm. The dunmer happened to be a royal (or person of power) from morrowind sent to examine the treatment of dunmer within the grey quarters. When the folk back in morrowind learn of this murder, they send forces into Skyrim.

You can pick a side, or try to stay neutral and resolve the issue using your influence in Skyrim. That option is only available if the main questline is finished or you have completed the civil war quest line.

As you can see, i havent thought about this idea too much but i feel it is a much more acheiveable goal than my underground land idea i had earlier, with my limit experience with the creation kit.

any thoughts? ideas? suggestions?

Sounds interesting. I was disappointed that more wasn't done with this, but then Skyrim is full of great ides that never reached fruition.
And it'd probably be a lot easier than making a new land! :D

Porscha, as your spiritual adviser... wait, no, that's tuesdays.


Jim, I say there aren't enough quest mods extending skyrim's original content. There's a few that add new land, with quests in, but I think your proposed campaign could be very interesting. If you want to share ideas, I'm usually around. Also, I know albinodunmer is a big fan of all things dunmer, so he might have a few suggestions...

I want an option to burn Windhelm to the ground! (and most of Skyrim can go along, for all my Bosmer cares :tongue: )

BY FIRE BE PURGED

Then you'd probably also be interested in the Anarchy mod idea I saw earlier. (it's on the second page of this forum, i think)

Take a look at my mod, linked in my signature. I've got plans to expand the Orc strongholds found within the game. I'm putting time in each day and have a lot of content that is within my limitations as modder.

True, and I had noticed your work. But it's not out yet, so I wasn't counting it, and it will be about orcs, whereas this is mostly about Dunmer.
The same encouragement I'm giving jim should apply to you :P
