- New characters: Meet Haj-Xul, an Argonian from Black Marsh who has recently arrived in Solstheim looking for a wanted fugitive, and Zirath Ryon, a Telvanni wizard on the run for his past crimes against the Argonians.
- Dungeons: Explore multiple locations across the ashlands, including a large nordic ruin previously buried under the ash.
- Magic: Unleash the power of Miasma on your foes using 9 brand-new spells and powers.
- Combat: Fight reavers, draugr and new powerful foes.
- Lore-Friendly: I tried to stay as faithful to the lore as I could when writing the story, this mod references various locations and factions from TES lore that were largely not present in Skyrim.
- Fully-Voiced: Miasma is fully voiced thanks to the contributions of the talented MeekVoice, David Pastore-Theriaque and Abbas!
