    Not lore firendly at all but I guess that has never stopped anyone on the nexus before.

    <Raven Rock is on the southern shore, toward the west end of the island. It's name comes from the black coloring caused by all the ebony ore that can be found there.

    Pretty cool!

    Also, is Raven Rock in lore really named after a rock formation? I can't find anything to confirm this. Or did you make that up?

      That's a funny question: I was sure I read this on UESP somewhere, but couldn't find the source anymore so I changed the mod's description.
      Let's say I made this up until (and if) I find out more, lol!

      Hopefully it's true, I'm just gonna roll with it for now. Thank you!

      In my old Morrowind days, Raven Rock was named by the black rocks that hold Ebony Veins ...

      "Raven Rock was founded in 3E 427 by the East Empire Company in response to the discovery of a rich ebony mine on the southern edge of the island of Solstheim." extracted from "History of Raven Rock, Vol. I".
      Even if it has some logic, as the ebony is black like a crow, nowhere it says that this has been the origin of her name. I like very much small immersive mods like this one.

      Bethesda's based in Maryland. You know Raven Rock in Fallout 3? That's an actual IRL place, just there in Pennsylvania. They used the name because it's a local reference. In-universe it's probably because of the Ebony. I've never, ever heard of it being a reference to a bird-shaped rock formation (which we never see ingame either).

    Once again Bethesda... WHY wasn't this in the original game? You name a town after a rock, you need to have the rock! Thanks for bringing the lore in!

      Because the place was named Raven Rock due the ebony in the earth not some rock:

    Very cool idea and lore friendly or not, it adds a bit of character to Raven Rock. Endorsed!

    I love mods like this, that add little details and subtly enhance the landscape. I don't care if it's lore friendly or not, now Raven Rock has a bit more character. You make awesome mods :)
