The Astral Pocket
By: OperatorJack


This mod has been re-built using OAAB_Data, found here.
 This version is no longer supported.


Description

This mod adds a miniquest to unlock a new spell, "Teleport to Astral Pocket". When you cast the spell, you will be teleported to a new location known as the Astral Pocket. Herein, you'll follow the very brief story of a Telvanni wizard and lay claim to his barren housepod. 
Then, you can teleport back to your previous location in a very similar way to mark-recall spells.

To begin the miniquest, talk to your local bookseller about the latest rumours, or look for the text "Astrological Elements."

I made this mod as part of learning MWSE and Lua. The house featured in-game is rather spartan, which is the way I prefer it. I won't be added additional functionality to the house, as I feel that being able to teleport to it from anywhere is overpowered enough. I have tried to balance it by requiring you to walk up the stairs each time you want to go in it, and by having a decent magicka cost, but it may require further balancing.

Requirements

- Morrowind
- Tribunal
- Bloodmoon
MGE XE 0.10.1
MWSE 2.1+
Magicka Expanded

This mod requires the most recently nightly build of MWSE. Please be sure to run the mwse-update.exe before playing this mod. This mod IS NOT compatible with OpenMW, at least until support for MWSE mods is added. Please note that this mod was made with a modded Morrowind install that uses different textures than a vanilla Morrowind install. Due to different textures and models, your in-game experience may be different than what is shown in the screenshots.

This mod requires my magic framework, Magicka Expanded. You do not have to install the spell packs, but the base package is required. This allows a much more stable and robust implementation of the spell.

Permissions

This mod may be utilized for any purpose for Morrowind, as long as you credit me as the original author. It may not be used for other games.
