Necromancer Hunting (for fun and profit)

This mod is a side quest mod I put together mainly for myself, as I like to hunt Necromancers in the game. This little quest mod formalizes the process. Necromancer Hunting is not meant to be some huge epic quest, it’s meant to be a series of “odd job” side quests you can do when you have time.

Requirements

Oblivion version 1.2.416. You must be a member of the Mages Guild and you must attain the rank of Conjurer before you will get the quest.

Background

Some members of the Mages Council think Arch Mage Traven is acting too passively against the Necromancers and their resurgence. Let’s face it, most of us play much more than just the Mages Guild when playing the game. These members of Mages Council have been watching your character and they realize that you are the adventurous type. They make you an offer - you take out the Necromancer lairs across Cyrodil and they reward you in gold for each robe you bring back. You get to keep any loot you find along the way.

Technical Details

This mod does not alter any of the existing cells or NPCs in the game. It adds Ontus to the Mages Quarters basement. If you have a Necromancer robe you will see a Reward topic appear when you talk to him. Click and he will trade you a robe for gold. This also adds a Necromancer Master to each of the 24 Necromancer lairs throughout Cyrodil. Quest targets have been placed on them and each Master is three levels above the player. All Masters are initially disabled and only enabled when the proper quest stage is triggered. The quest does not complete once you get to the last lair. This way you can cycle back through the lairs as they respawn.

Special Thanks
