1. INSTALLING THE PLUGIN

*****************************************************************

To install the plugin, unzip the files into the Morrowind/Data Files
directory.

*****************************************************************

2. PLAYING THE PLUGIN

*****************************************************************

To use this mod check the box next to the Ahnassi's House - Refurbished.esp file in the Morrowind Launcher Data Files menu.

This mod makes alterations to the cell "Pelagiad, Ahnassi's House" that are designed to improve the layout, utility, and overall appearance of the cell so it may better serve as a player home.

To directly travel to the home using the console, use the following command:

coc "Pelagiad, Ahnassi's House"

*****************************************************************

3. PLUGIN FEATURES

*****************************************************************

The home has the following features:

** Alchemy Sorter: This sorter will sort Morrowind and/or Tribunal and Bloodmoon ingredients. The container for the sorter has the appearance of an interior window cover/cabinet, which is set into a wall in the basement.

To sort ingredients from the base game, click on the coat of arms above the cabinet (on the left) labeled "Ingredient Sorter (Common).

To sort Tribunal and Bloodmoon ingedients, click on the coat of arms above the cabinet (on the right) labeled "Ingredient Sorter (Exotic).

Please note, the Ingredient storage container has a capacity of zero. To place any ingredients into it, you must use the Sorter.

---

** The Alchemy Desorter(s): Near the Alchemy Sorter there is shelf with several scrolls, which act as a convenient way to draw out any and all Morrowind/Tribunal/Bloodmoon ingredients used to make the following potions from the Ingredient Storage:

-- Restore Health

-- Restore Fatigue

-- Cure Common Disease

-- Restore Magicka

-- Feather

-- Levitation

-- Water Breathing

-- Fire shield

-- Fortify Strength

-- Invisibility

The scripts used for this take into account your Alchemy skill. Any ingredients listed for the above potions found in "The Alchemists Formulary" will be removed from storage and added to the player inventory provided your base skill in Alchemy is > 5. All others will be removed and added once your Alchemy skill is great enough to actually see the effect on the ingredient itself.

---

** Scripted Teleportation: At a certain point in the questline offered by the home owner (Ahnassi, in the Halfway Tavern) a scroll will appear on a bench inside the house. Reading this scroll gives the player a "telport home" power, as well as a scripted item that allows the telport power to work.

The teleport is companion friendly, and is done via npc. You will need some gold to use the telport.

**PLEASE NOTE!**

The teleport power will not work until said point in the questline, and you must have the scripted item in your inventory. If either condition fails, the spell will still cast but the script will not fire and you won't get the telport dialogue. This is intentional.

---

**NoM Support: This mod features a NoM compatible fireplace and a NoM beer keg.
