About this mod

Vampire themed home southwest of Falkreath, ideal for a vampire hiding away from society. Redux version of the original mod.

The location of the home is already marked on your map south west of Falkreath along the road close to edge of the border. The location makes it ideal for any one playing through the game as a feral vampire that doesn't go to towns and just lives in the wild. The key to unlock the door is in a satchel at the entrance.

The home has many storage containers with specific names and general containers like basic chests and dressers. Aside from containers there are also plenty of Racks, Mannequins and Weapon Plaques for showcasing your favourite items.
All the essential crafting stations you'll need for the vanilla gameplay experience at least. The only absent crafting station would be the staff enchanter. These crafting stations have been tested with Ordinador and can be upgraded without any issues, note that uninstalling this mod with an upgrading crafting station in Stalkers Refuge will not automatically disassemble it, so you'll have to do that manually before uninstalling.

The Shrine of Molag Bal grants a temporary boost to sneaking and destruction damage for a day, can be replenished whenever and can stack with divine blessings like the Blessing of Arkay or Mara.

Adds a convenient replica of the Bloodstone Chalice for improving the potency of Vampiric Drain. The chalice will inherit any improvements you've received for it for completing Volkihar side quests.
There is also a hireable Death Hound called Vein, he is only hireable if you are part of the vampire faction and have completed the Redwater Den quest. If you're a part of the Dawnguard faction, he will attack you.
The dungeon connected to the main living room contains 2 vampire cattle for you to feed on every so often. Over feeding will cause them to die like any other NPC, so be cautious not to over indulge your blood lust.

Other Features

The home has lots of hand place idle markers specifically with Serana in mind so she will wonder around performing various actions like sitting next to the fire, reading a book, leaning against a wall, etc.

Compatibility

This mod is not compatible with the original Stalkers Refuge. Any mod that changes the exterior around the entrance has a chance to make the entrance inaccessible, so be sure to load this mod after any landscape mod that modifies the Stalkers Refuge exterior to avoid this.
