This mod is my attempt to improve the Telvanni settlement of Tel Mithryn, with the emphasis being on utility over aesthetics (which isn't to say that I don't try to make it look good, just that I focus on adding things which serve a purpose).

• New dock area east of the main tower
• New main gate
• A guard house near the gate
• 4 guards (3 day shift, 1 night shift)
• A general goods shop with un-enchanted versions of Dunmer and Telvanni outfits available for purchase
• 3 new named NPCs:
  
  • Ranis Oren, outfitter / general merchant
  • Tonas Oren, fisherman
  • Llunela Oren, aspiring blacksmith (you can buy weapons and armor from her mother)
    
• Two ash yam gardens
• A scathecraw garden
• An outdoor dining area
• A full set of crafting stations
• Main tower interior changes:
  
  • Added an alchemy station
  • Cleaned up Neloth’s bedroom. He’s still a slob, but there are limits…
  • Turned the storeroom into a guest bedroom, with a bed for the player and safe storage
  • Fixed some floating furniture and oddly placed objects
    
• All new NPCs have fully detailed daily schedules. Guards use recycled dialogue from the Raven Rock guards (where it makes sense). The Orens use generic dialogue (for the time being). All new NPCs are flagged as protected so they won’t die to random dragons or ash spawn attacks.
• Relevant Unofficial Patch edits have been forwarded
• Cleaned with TES5Edit
  

Optional New Prison

I’ve Included an optional esp that gives Tel Mithryn its own crime & prison system (it was originally part of Raven Rock’s crime faction). I made it a separate esp because it edits the Actor records for all NPCs in Tel Mithryn, and so has more potential for incompatibilities. If you use Mator's Merge Plugins Standalone, you can merge it into the main file.

Have fun trying to escape Tel Mithryn’s prison. The Telvanni don’t mess around…



I recommend using a mod manager, such as Mod Organizer or Nexus Mod Manager. If you want to install manually, just extract the contents of the archive into your Skyrim data folder. This mod is safe to install mid-playthrough; just make sure you save somewhere away from Tel Mithryn before loading it up for the first time.

I recommend using DynDOLOD to ensure that all structures display properly when viewed from far away.




This mod will generally be incompatible with mods that edit Tel Mithryn and its immediate surroundings. I recommend loading this mod after mods that edit light placement (like Relighting Skyrim or ELFX & ELFX Exteriors) but before mods that edit imagespaces and light settings (like ELE or the ELFX Enhancer).


Special Cases:

Raven Rock Expanded - Place my mod after Raven Rock Expanded in your load order.

Complete Fast Travel Overhaul - It works fine as is, but the ferry placement is a little strange. Use the patch in the optional files, which moves the ferryman onto my new docks. This also fixes the issue of followers showing up in the water, since my docks are navmeshed. Note that the same patch file is available on the CFTO page. You only need one.

Bonemold Expanded - Use the patch in the optional files, which removes the generic guard added by Bonemold Expanded and adds the new Telvanni gear to my guards.
