About this mod

Grants constant effect water breathing and swift swim to Argonians. Includes a built-in solution to completing the Puzzle Canal quest which feels like a part of the game.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Aquatic Argonians

Created by RogiVagel

Purpose
To grant Argonians the aquatic nature attributed to them in lore.

Changes made by the mod
Argonian breathing spell altered to an ability to give constant effect Water Breathing and Swift Swim (50 points).

Why this mod?
This is not the first mod to change Argonians in this way. However, I have not seen a solution to completeing the Puzzle Canal that doesn't feel like a hack.

Other mods makers have suggested creating a spell or magic item set to damage yourself at a Spellmaker/Enchanter.
This will work, but quite a bit of extra effort for the player and hardly fits with the spirit of the quest.

This mod provides a solution to this problem which will enable Argonian pilgrims to experience the quest in full.
Your Argonian will feel included rather than discriminated against by the creators of the puzzle canal.

I have placed a scripted "Argonian Puzzle Ring" on top of the Puzzle Canal Message 'Shrine' in the Puzzle Canal Center. Wearing this ring will temporarily disable the aquatic abilities so you can complete the quest like any other race. The ring cannot be used anywhere else in the game.

"Can I use this for my existing Argonian Character?"
Yes - but it will require a little tweak and comes with a warning. See the ReadMe for details.

Known Conflicts
Will conflict with other mods that edit the argonian breathing spell.
I can't think of anything else that would stop this mod working other than a name clash with new spells/items, but you never know with Morrowind and its various versions.

Version 1.1 - Improved the script behaviour. Addressed the possibility of adding the ring through the console.

Acknowledgements:
I couldn't have done this without Gahn-Buri-Ghan's 'Scripting for Dummies'. Otherwise it is all my own work.
