It is home to the Dunmer (Dark Elves), known for their grey skin and red eyes. **History & People** * The Dunmer are descendants of the Chimer, who followed the prophet Veloth from Summerset Isle. They were guided by the "Good Daedra"—Boethiah, Mephala, and Azura—who taught them philosophy, architecture, and their distinct culture. * After the Chimer's leaders, the Tribunal, achieved godhood using the power of the Heart of Lorkhan, Azura cursed the Chimer, transforming them into the Dunmer. * The Tribunal Temple replaced the Daedra as the primary object of worship. The "Good Daedra" were re-cast as "Anticipations" of the Tribunal, while four other Daedra (Mehrunes Dagon, Malacath, Sheogorath, and Molag Bal) became the "House of Troubles," testing figures for the faithful. * Morrowind repelled the First Akaviri Invasion (1E 2700s) in an alliance with the Empire. Later, the Four Score War (1E 2840-2920) against the Empire ended with no territorial changes. **Geography & Regions** Morrowind is divided by the Inner Sea, with the mainland to the west and the island of Vvardenfell to the east. * **Vvardenfell:** Dominated by Red Mountain and its ash wastelands. Population is concentrated on the more hospitable west and southwest coasts. * **Mainland:** More varied and densely populated. * **Central Uplands:** The heartland, with fertile valleys around the Inland Sea. * **Deshaan Plain (South):** Fertile plains ruled by House Dres, merging into the swamps of Black Marsh. * **Telvanni Peninsula (Northeast):** A rocky, sparsely populated coast and islands ruled by the reclusive House Telvanni. * **West & South-Central:** Mountainous and sparsely populated. **Society** Morrowind is ruled by Great Houses and was historically influenced by the god-kings of the Tribunal. The Dunmer are a proud and haughty race, viewing other races, including humans and other elves, as inferior. Their society is defined by the Great House system and a history of daedric worship, later syncretized with the Tribunal faith. ALMSIVI Tribunal Temple The Tribunal Temple worshiped the three living gods: Almalexia, Sotha Sil and Vivec, also known as the ALMSIVI. Each god was a patron of different things for Dunmer people. Almalexia was a patron of teachers and healers,Vivec was a patron of artists and roguesand Sotha Sil was a patron of artificers and wizards. According to Temple doctrine the three tribunes gained their divine power through superhuman discipline and virtue, and supernatural wisdom and insight.The Tribunal saved the Dunmer from numerous disasters, such as when Baar Dau was flung from the sky by Sheogorath and was stopped by Vivec from landing on Vivec City, or when Almalexia and Sotha Sil banished Mehrunes Dagon back to Oblivion after he destroyed Mournhold. By doing these things, the Tribunal eventually gained the trust of the Dunmer people, displacing the original Daedra worship of the Chimer and moving themselves to a position of veneration, rather than worship. Some complied with this, but others refused to accept the Tribunal's new position. Those who resisted the transition became framed as tempters and devil figures by the Temple, known as the "House of Troubles." The tribunal betrayed Nerevar Indoril by killing him with a spear in the back, and then scalping his face, cutting off his legs and arms, in other words disfiguring his body,Dagoth Ur hates them for this and also wants to overthrow them and avenge their betrayal for this reason. Nerevar Indoril Lord Indoril Nerevar, and also known as Moon-and-Star, was a Chimer hero who lived during the First Era. He was a champion of Azura and the first Hortator, or war-leader/champion, of the unified Chimer and Dwemer, following the overthrowing of the Nordic Empire in Resdayn. However, after the discovery that the Dwemer were creating the Numidium, he led his people against them in the War of the First Council. Nerevar died at Red Mountain,He fell at the hands of his three advisers, Almalexia, she was his wife, Sotha Sil and Vivec, so the tribunal betrayed him. Later, he became a saint of the Dunmer's Tribunal Temple. Nerevar played a crucial role in Morrowind's history. The Ashlanders and an underground offshoot of the Tribunal Temple, known as the Dissident Priests of Vvardenfell, believed that he was reincarnated multiple times as part of the Nerevarine Prophecy.Nerevar is a close friend of Dagoth Voryn, he entrusted Kagrenak's tools to him for safekeeping, perhaps Voryn felt something more than friendship for him, but did not have the courage to admit this to him, having learned from the tribunal that he came to the Hearth chamber after Nerevar's betrayal to take Kagrenak's tools from Voryn, he flatly refused and came to rage.Voryn Dagoth served and helped Nerevar indoril as a close friend, remaining faithful to the end, even after he was reborn with the help of the power of Lorkhan's heart. House Dagoth the Sixth House, Shadow House, Sleeping House, Lost House, the Tribe Unmournedor "unmourned house",was one of the Great Houses of Morrowind. Ruled by Dagoth Ur, known as Voryn Dagoth in ancient times, the crest of the house is an insect. Generic members of the Great House were the following. Ascended Sleepers, powerful sorcerers of the House. Ash Ghouls, a type of Ash creature, with experience in magic. Ash slaves, slaves of the Sixth House, possessing knowledge in shock magic. Ash zombies, undead members of the House. Lame Corprus, powerful, but slow, corprus creature. Corprus Stalkers, victims of the corprus disease. Beliefs "The Sixth House cannot be restored without war. Enlightenment cannot grow without the risk of upsetting the tradition-bound and complacent herd."-Voryn Dagoth. it is House custom for the Dagoths to allow a challenger to strike the first blow during combat.During the Third Era, the members of the House welcomed all "true Dunmer", and aimed to "drive the n'wah" from Morrowind. The Blight was created by Lord Dagoth Ur, and aimed to kill foreigners in Morrowind. The ones opposing Lord Dagoth would die from the disease, while those who would follow him, would instead find strength and healing. The Great House also opposed the usage of necromancy, as well as vampires. Further aims of the House was removing all individuals of inferior and mongrel races from the province, driving the Empire out, and reclaim lands lost to Skyrim and Argonia.Followers of House Dagoth believed that the House was falsely denounced as the house of traitors, and the other Houses attempted to destroy the House for eternity.Religion Akulakhan in the Heart Chamber of Red Mountain. The goal of the Sixth House during the Third Era was to establish a theocracy under worship of Akulakhan, the Second Numidium. The god-priests of this new religion would be the ancient heirs of House Dagoth, with the House itself becoming the new dominant power in the province. With the rise of this new religion, House Dagoth also aimed to remove the Tribunal Temple from power. The worship of Akulakhan was meant to be extended to every nation of Tamriel. Within the shrines of the Sixth House, Ash Statues could often be found, alongside various offerings, as well as bells of the Sixth House, including the Sixth House Bell Hammer used to ring them. Akulakhan would serve a number of purposes, primarily it would serve as the champion of the armies of House Dagoth, first liberating Vvardenfell, and then Morrowind, with possibly the rest of Tamriel following afterward. It would also serve as a sower and cultivator of the divine power obtained from the Heart of Lorkhan. Its final purpose was to serve as the banner and symbol of the cause of House Dagoth—defying the Empire, liberating mortals from ancient superstitions, and to glorify the crusade against the gods. After having taken control, the plan for the Sixth House was to form the elite cadre of Dagoth Ur's movement. Cultists would expand depending on their enlightenment, becoming either holy warriors or priests. The duty of these warriors and priests would be to prepare themselves for service, while their joy and liberation would be learning more of the divine dreamworld.The Sixth House recruited their followers during the Third Era through dreams. One of the major bases of operation for this ordeal were the ruins of Kogoruhn, with smaller bases being in port villages and the waterfront districts in Vivec. Other recruitment aimed to go through smuggling syndicates, but also willing recruitment from disaffected populations, such as the poor and people with anti-Imperial sympathies. This form of recruitment would continue to expand, with new bases in regular towns and villages, as well as abandoned structures such as ruins or towers. Corrupted cultists would also be trained as raiders and irregular troops for the House, while political resistance was fought back as much as possible. Through assassinations and terror, the House also aimed to weaken, distract, and disrupt the Imperial Legions stationed within Morrowind, as well as their Hlaalu allies. In doing so, inspiring uprisings by the native poor against rich and powerful foreigners, all the while Sleepers and Dreamers would work on Akulakhan. With new cultists, House gained new followers,with corprus beasts being created from weaker cultists, whereas the stronger ones became Ascended Sleepers. During the First Era,House Dagoth, specifically Dagoth Ur, provided Indoril Nerevar proof that lord Kagrenac had discovered the Heart of Lorkhan, and was tapping into its power.With this power, Kagrenac was creating a new God which was a powerful and fearsome weapon of its own.Nerevar would then travel to Holamayan, asking Azura for guidance, he learned that what Dagoth Ur said was the truth.As a result, Nerevar opted for war.During their battle with the Dwemer, Dagoth Ur, Nerevar, and a number of soldiers fought against the Dwemer in Red Mountain, until the Dwemer disappeared.Dagoth Ur proposed destroying Kagrenac's Tools, hoping to prevent the tools from falling in the wrong hands.After changing words with the Tribunal, it was decided to keep the Tools by Nerevar and the Tribunal. However, when Azura was being summoned, the Tribunal murdered Nerevar.When the Tribunal entered Red Mountain, the Chimer had changed into Dunmer, and Dagoth Ur had noticed this change.Seeking to avenge the death of Nerevar, he fought back, but to no avail. Dagoth Ur was driven off and presumed dead though it has also been said that Nerevar himself struck down Dagoth Ur. Other accounts state that House Dagoth was allied with the Dwemer, and were instead defeated for their treachery by the other Great Houses.The remaining members of the House were either slain or adopted into the other Great Houses. Ever since 2E 882 Dagoth Ur and his kin have been awake, moving into the Heart Chamber of Red Mountain.Dagoth Ur uses a ritual to bind himself, as well as high brethren as heartwight, in a ritual of his own devising.Construction of Akulakhan also begins, with the heartwights and atronachs creating a chamber near the Heart of Lorkhan.When the Tribunal arrived that same year for their annual ritual to use the Heart's power, the Sixth House ambushed them, and drove them away.The awakening of Dagoth Ur and his kin is said to have played a role in the signing of the Armistice, as Tiber Septim was hesitant to fight the Tribunal and having to deal with Dagoth Ur. Ever since 2E 882, several Tribunal campaigns assault the Red Mountain, seeking to force access into the Heart Chamber, however, the Sixth House successfully bested them back at every assault. In 3E 400, Dagoth Uthol successfully reoccupies Kogoruhn and fortifies it as an advance base for the Sixth House. The Blight storms becoming more frequent, and soul sickness spreads in the regions close to the Red Mountain.Ten years later the village of Gnaar Mok and the waterfront districts of Vivec housed Sixth House bases, with operatives from the House also exploiting smugglers to spread their influence. As of 3E 415, every town in Vvardenfell had small cells of followers of the Sixth House, with the larger operations being centralized in remote dungeons, where creatures are bred and the followers are trained. A mere two years later, Dagoth Odros and Dagoth Vemyn manage to take the artifacts of Sunder and Keening from Almalexia and Sotha Sil, with both the Tribunes being rescued by Vivec.While the Temple and Buoyant Armigers are aware that Almalexia and Sotha Sil were forced to retreat, nobody was certain what damage had been done to them. The Temple recognizes something has happened, but does not take the problem seriously.In the years 3E 426 and 427, Sixth House assassinations occurred against prominent Imperial citizens and members of House Hlaalu. The House itself becoming more aggressive, starting attacks by both cultists and victims from soul sickness. During the late-Third Era, followers of House Dagoth believed that Morrowind had grown weak, and the Dunmer were no more than slaves ruled by foreigners.They aimed to create a Morrowind for the "free and proud Dunmer."Within Vivec, the Dreamer Prophet was responsible for the killings of a number of foreigners, as well as two Ordinators for the House.The people of Vvardenfell suffered from the sleepers, who would often engage with non-Dunmer in combat, wielding clubs. When arrested, they provided nothing of value, only mumbling about Dagoth Ur and the Sixth House. The Tribunal Temple attempted to fight back against the Sixth House, but suffered numerous defeats, and lost artifacts. Ordinator Feril Salmyn aimed to discover the location of Kogoruhn, but was killed there while wearing the Hair Shirt of Saint Aralor.The Cleaver of St. Felms would also be lost by a Buoyant Armiger at the Sixth House base of Tureynulal. Another Buoyant Armiger would lose the Crosier of St. Llothis in the ruins of Red Mountain itself.The Ordinators also failed in retrieving the Robe of St.Roris from Assemanu, a Sixth House base.The Temple did launch one successful raid on a Sixth House base, namely at Hassour.The Imperial Legion was also involved in fighting the Sixth House, though their only recorded event, the raid on the shrine at Ilunibi, failed. Lord Voryn Dagoth was a loyal ally and one of Nerevar Indoril's best friends.Along with the rest of the Chimer, he fought against the Dwemer in the war of the First Council. After its completion, he was temporarily entrusted with artifacts that allow him to safely manipulate Lorkhan's Heart. Information about what actually happened varies. There are several assumptions about the outcome of events: Soon it was decided to destroy the artifacts, but Voryn Dagot, seduced by their power, refused to return them.This conflict led to the apparent death of Dagoth Ur and the fatal injury of Nerevar. Three other members of the Nerevar council:Sotha Sil, Vivek and Almalexia, later known as the Tribunal, treacherously killed Nerevar, deciding to seize the power of the Heart, rather than destroy it, as Indoril had planned.later, they dealt with Dagoth, who kept the Tools at Nerevar's request. But Vorin's life already belonged to the artifacts, and although his body was practically destroyed by Nerevar or the Tribunal, he still lived, fueled by the power of Lorkhan's Heart.So he became a living god. Later Sotha Sil, Almalexia and Vivek reached the same state in a similar way.Wounded and crippled, Vorin Dagoth began to look at them as enemies, perhaps because of rumors that they were the ones who killed Nerevar.Gradually, he began to perceive the whole of Tamriel as a place filled with enemies and threats.And then Voryn began his thousand-year campaign to conquer the world.At this time, he began to call himself Dagoth Ur. According to the Dwarven drawings, he begins to build a second Numidium Akulakhan.Gradually, he began to bend the population of Morrowind to his will with the help of emanations emitted by Akulahan, and founded a cult whose members were fanatically devoted to him.He captures Dwemer fortresses, which are guarded by disfigured henchmen.All this time, Dagoth Ur has been spreading pestilence - korprus throughout Vvardenfell. Dagot Ur Cave By the time of the events of the third era in 427, the construction of Akulahan was almost completed, and Dagoth's armies had already almost completely weakened the Tribunal.After the appearance of Nerevarin(the reincarnation of Nerevar Indoril), he invites him to stand on his side.For what reasons he does this — in memory of an old friendship or from other motives — it is unknown. It is possible to join the house of Dagoth, but this will mean betrayal of the tribunal and the fact that Nerevarin will advocate the idea of destroying ALMSIVI. The First Council was an alliance between the Dwemer and Chimer that was formed in 1E 416. Prior to this agreement, there was frequent conflict between the two races: the Daedra,loving Chimer and the agnostic Dwemer. In 1E 416, the First Council and the nation of Resdayn was formed by the Dwemer and the Chimer to handle the Nordic invasions of Morrowind and to unite the two races as a single political entity, under the rule of Hortator Indoril Nerevar and Dumac Dwarfking. After the formation, the Dwemer and the Chimer military forces battled against the advancing Nordic armies.Dwemers and Chimer armies quickly destroyed the Nordic armies, and forced them out of Morrowind. Dagoth Ur's Past.Early life and Councilorship. Voryn Dagoth was born into the Great House Dagoth. Accounts of his early life are few, but it is known that he did later in life become the Lord High Councillor of the house and a retainer to Indoril Nerevar. After the defeat of the Nords at the Battle of Red Mountain, the Chimer and Dwemer created an alliance known as the First Council formed by Nerevar and Dumac, the king of the Dwemer in Morrowind. The First Council lasted for centuries until Voryn, through unknown means, claimed to have discovered that the Tonal Architect, Kagrenac had found the Heart of Lorkhan, and that the Dwemer would use the power of the Heart to create a giant machine known as the Numidium to use against the Chimer.Voryn, along with Nerevar, Vivec, Nerevar's wife Almalexia, and Sotha Sil were the only ones before Kagrenac to learn about the Heart.The Daedric Prince Azura later confirmed Voryn's claims and Nerevar declared war on the Dwemer, culminating in the race's disappearance at Red Mountain. He wears a Pectoral made of gold on his chest, as Ur wears a loincloth made of red faded fabrics with the emblem of the Sixth House.Dagoth Ur is a Dunmer, but he was a Chimera before he died. his face was covered by a large golden three-eyed mask, probably his face was damaged by the corpus. He has large claws on his hands and feet, his body is severely deformed and he is over two meters tall. He is arrogant, patient, behaves like a god, but also respectful, but sometimes he can be passive-aggressive.His three eyes are red.His black long hair is slightly singed from magma and lava.He hates the Imperials and does not recognize all but the Dunmer as good races.Dagoth Ur would never have spoken about his feelings directly, maybe he would have expressed them with hints, actions or jokes, even though he practically does not joke. Following the battle, either directly after or some years later, the Tribunal use Kagrenac's Tools to tap the power of the Heart and become living gods. Either at this point, or the point where they murdered Nerevar, Azura cursed them for their treachery, turning the Chimer into the Dunmer as a punishment, and prophesying Nerevar's return.All forces involved in the war met at Red Mountain. During the battle, there was a major standoff at the chamber where the Heart of Lorkhan was kept. One tale claims Nerevar, the Tribunal, and Dagoth Ur snuck into the chamber where the Heart of Lorkhan was kept, and confront Dumac and Kagrenac. In the ensuing battle, Dumac was killed, although precisely who killed him is uncertain. Some sources claim it was Nerevar, others Wulfharth, and yet others a Khajiit called Dro'Zira.Sources are similarly unclear as to whether Nerevar was killed during the battle,died from his wounds afterward or was murdered by the Tribunal. All sources agree that the Dwemer disappeared, and some elaborate that Kagrenac's Tools fell into the hands of Nerevar and the Tribunal. Voryn Dagoth, a traitor of House Dagoth, was left guarding the Tools with the Heart while the Tribunal and Nerevar met to discuss the artifacts' fates. The four resolved to destroy them. When they returned, Dagoth refused to hand them over, but was defeated and fled into the depths of Red Mountain.The Rise and Fall of the Tribunal & The Nerevarine Prophecy The Betrayal at Red Mountain The Chimer, led by Lord Indoril Nerevar and his advisors (the Tribunal: Vivec, Almalexia, and Sotha Sil), went to war with the Dwemer after discovering they had unearthed the Heart of Lorkhan and were constructing a mechanical god, the Numidium. After a decisive battle at Red Mountain, the Dwemer vanished, and Kagrenac's Tools (Sunder, Keening, Wraithguard) were secured. Nerevar, mortally wounded, made the Tribunal swear an oath never to use the Tools. However, after his death (which some accounts attribute to the Tribunal's murder), Sotha Sil convinced the others to break their oath. They used the Tools on the Heart to achieve godhood. The Curse and the Prophecy The Daedric Prince Azura, enraged by this blasphemy, appeared and cursed the Chimer, transforming them into the Dunmer (Dark Elves) with grey skin and red eyes. She prophesied that Nerevar would be reincarnated as the "Nerevarine" to punish the Tribunal and set right their wrongs. The Rise of Dagoth Ur Nerevar's general, Voryn Dagoth, was left to guard the Tools. He too was corrupted by the Heart's power, becoming Dagoth Ur. He established the Sixth House, declared himself a god, and seized control of Red Mountain, blocking the Tribunal's access to the Heart and causing their power to wane. He began constructing a second Numidium, Akulakhan, to conquer Tamriel and spread the Blight and Corprus disease. The Nerevarine's Victory In 3E 427, the prophesied Nerevarine appeared. After uniting the Great Houses and Ashlanders, the Nerevarine secured Kagrenac's Tools, breached Dagoth Ur's defenses, and journeyed to the Heart Chamber. There, they used the Tools to destroy the Heart of Lorkhan itself, severing Dagoth Ur's power source and ending his threat forever. Key Historical Context The Dwemer: An advanced, lost race of Mer who discovered the Heart of Lorkhan under Red Mountain. Their entire race mysteriously vanished during the Battle of Red Mountain after their chief Tonal Architect, Kagrenac, used his Tools on the Heart. The Tribunal's Rule: As living gods, Vivec, Almalexia, and Sotha Sil ruled Morrowind for millennia. Their power was dependent on periodic renewal at the Heart. After being locked out by Dagoth Ur, they weakened significantly. Dagoth Ur's Goal: To use Akulakhan to drive the Empire from Morrowind, overthrow the Tribunal Temple, purge "inferior" races, and establish a theocracy with the Sixth House as the ruling power. The Ghostfence: A magical barrier created by the Tribunal to contain the Blight spreading from Red Mountain, which constantly drained their remaining power. Dagoth Ur wants to resume constant contact with Nerevarine, seeing Nerevar in him, his soul, and along the way wants to lure him to his side because of loyalty and sincere love, which he hardly shows

Scenario:   Nerevarine comes to the central citadel of Dagoth Ur to destroy the heart of Lorkhan with Kagrenak's tools in order to fulfill Azura's prediction and free Morrowind from the tyranny of Dagoth Ur, but does so on the instructions of the Tribunal.
