- Permissions and credits
NOTE ABOUT UPDATING FROM A PREVIOUS VERSION:
Make sure none of your precious items are stored in any of the containers or laying around as this could cause them to disappear. Remove them, then install the update as a precaution.
DESCRIPTION:
After making "Aria Keep" some years back for Morrowind, I wanted to build something for Oblivion for my character to stay. I'm not too fond of the vanilla houses to be honest. However, the house in Anvil is pretty neat, and the Skingrad place is nice, but I wanted a castle. Heh. Don't we all? :)
Temius Castle is on the Waterfront, just outside the Imperial City on the Eastern Shores of Lake Rumare. The Castle is probably only half the size of "Aria Keep" but has many places to enjoy and explore. The Castle is also very Imperial, with lots of IC banners hanging around. Any who, the castle consists of:
1. Guards Barracks.
2. Chapel Undercroft, with storage area.
3. Private Chambers with guest quarters.
4. Servants Quarters.
5. Library with small alchemy workstation
7. Dungeon.
8. Dining Hall.
9. Great Hall.
10. Wine Cellar.
11. Guard Tower
------------
There are 9 NPCs with full scheduals if my mind serves me, and all are Imperial, minus the prisoner, which is none other than a Dark Elf. lol.
2 Servants. One will explore areas of the castle, and the other will hunt deer for food.
5 Guards. One of them is a jailor in the Dungeon, one will patrol outside, one will patrol the barracks, one will patrol the Private Chambers, and one will keep guard in the Guard Tower outside the Castle.
1 Prisoner in the dungeon, (Rena Dren lol had to use that last name) locked up for life. You can read more about her from a log book. Try and talk to her. lol.
1 Priest, which stays mostly in the chapel. The chapel can be accessed behind the castle. It also serves as a small storage area and has an altar for healing.
Also, ALL the NPCs are Female. Why? I dunno. I'm a guy, but I'm playing a female character right now, and decided to make an all female staff. I did the same with "Aria Keep" but there were several males in that one.
------------
NOTE about NPC scheduals. Remember that sometimes AI packages will not kick in right away. It can take 24 hours or more. So, don't be discouraged if some of them are standing around like statues. lol. ;-)
By the way... the prisoner's cell door is locked and only the jailor has the key.
Also, I set all the NPCs to Essential. So, they cannot be killed. Many also share a water breathing spell just incase they fall into Lake Rumare. lol.
------------
The deed to the Castle can be bought from Jensine of "Jensine's "Good as New" Merchadise" in the market district. Asking price is set at $50,000, but if you get Jensine's disposition up and or have a good mercantile skill, you should be able to get it much cheaper.
You do not need to start a new game to play this mod, but if you do, as soon as you exit the sewers, you will notice a Black Horse Broadsheet on the ground which will give you a lot of info on the Castle Sale. If you want to see the broadsheet in an exisiting game, it will still be sitting on the ground where new players exit the sewers.
As soon as you purchase the deed from Jensine, you will receive the deed and the castle front door key. You will also get a journal update about your new investment. Without the key, only the chapel undercroft and Guard Tower can be accessed, unless you cheat of course, but now now, that's no fun. You gotta work for it. *Smiles*
