Lakeview Manor

Recommended Posts

Hey all! I'm building a sweet new mod that I'm so excited about I want to share some screenies in advance!

 

The mod is a little village south of the Imperial City called Lake View. The town is seeking a new Lord to run things, and guess who fits the bill! I won't spoil the plot for you, but I will mention that it includes a retirement home for elderly adventurers! (Cause it's fun, that's why!) At the end of the quest you will be the proud Lord of a village that includes a bakery and shop, guard tower, a cottage for your servants, a museum and office area for you to display your trophies, a garden and a cave full of mushrooms and plants not native to Tamriel, four of the finest horses in Cyrodiil, and a beautiful manor house for you to call home.

 

Here's a few screenies to whet your appetite!

Dude, that IS harsh. I don't know how original Lake View itself is. I built it to fill my own needs as a gamer, so I'm hoping it will fill the needs of other gamers as well. A sort of one place for everything kind of home that's also pretty.

 

I DO know that the quest to earn the Lordship of Lake View is completely original. I can guarantee that you haven't seen anything like this before.

A few more Screenies to whet your appetites! Mostly exterior views right now, so much of this place is a work in progress that the interiors aren't set in stone yet. Things are still changing as I add stuff, test in-game, then change stuff, test again, etc. Still, this place is LOADED with loot - TWO hidden rooms, lots of powerful weapons, a fence that will buy ANYTHING and sells the BEST weapons and armors. No god-items, but still lots of good loot! Anyways, here are the screenies!

 

Let's start with a couple interior shots of the Alchemist's Cavern:

The Horse Pasture with your four new horses, Virtue, Valor, Courage and Charisma:

A glimpse of the Servants Quarters:

The Front Gate to Lake View village:

Finally a look at Lake View Manor itself:

I'd love to hear your thoughts, but lets keep it as positive as possible. Or at least be nice with your constructive criticism! :)

More screenies, and a chance to 'meet' some of the NPC's that populate Lake View Village.

 

First off, this is the Alchemy Book. It sits beside the alchemy table (which is static, no carrying around alchemy equipment. Everything is in one small area, easy to use, ready to go). Inside the Alchemy Book is a bunch of handy potion recipes. Can't take the book anywhere, so you won't lose it. And it looks cool, see?

I've tested almost all of the recipes inside and they work well!

 

Now to meet some of the NPCs:

 

This is Baker Joe, he runs the bakery:

Baker Joe mostly hangs out in his bakery. He looks intimidating, but he's just as sweet as his pastries!

 

 

This is Jalessa, the maid:

She's very pretty, and twice as efficient as she is pretty. She will pick up all your messes and keep everything tidy for you.

 

 

 

And here we have Turk and Elisabelle:

They're a married couple that run the general store. Elisabelle specializes in alchemy equipment while Turk sells and repairs weapons and armor.
