LE Skyrim Museum

[Anaraavi]

Was daydreaming yesterday after doing some work on a bit of artwork of one of my characters.

 

I am a packrat, or some of my characters are. And I love collectiong. In oblivion I had several mods loaded for collecting creature models, artwork, Mannikin halls etc

 

I was thinking it would be nice to have a character that is suddenly given the opportunity to be 'The Curator' of the newly built Museum of Skyrim/Tamriel w/e.

 

You are tasked with being put in sole charge (Except for the wheelers and dealers behind the scenes who wish to preserve everything Skyrim/Tamriel) of the Museum and tasked with going forth and stocking the museum

with all and sundry. (would leave out Enchanted and quest related weapons and armour, and keep it for standard gear and items)

 

The Museum would be a vaste sprawl of hallways and rooms. Each Room or Hallway dedicated to a material, or a resource.

 

So there would be the Hide and Leather exhibits, the Iron Room, the Ebony Halls etc.

There would be Flora of Skyrim, a large botanical annex.

There would be a Fauna annex, every animal stuffed and mounted. Including a full Dragon Skeleton for part of the main entrance Hall(or whole one preserved as part of a quest).

There would be A mineral Hall for ores and Gems.

A Delicacies of Skyrim displaying every type of food and ingredient

There would be collectable statues of Akatosh, Arkay etc. They would sit on pedastles in the main hall alongside a shrine dedicated to them.

There would be Manakins in the Halls of Iron and Steel etc in order to display each armour set, weapons racks in each Hall of Iron Steel etc to display every weapon of that metal, glass etc.

We could have mounted Skeletons on pedastles, alongside Draugh and other creatures. (Wolves Bears and other natural fauna have their own exhibition room, ie Fauna above)

 

Maybe a room for bric a brac to show how people live/lived, woodaxe, shovel, plates and other functional everyday items.

 

A Grans Library to stock

 

And so on.

 

An Explorers and Collectors dream job and function.

 

On Completion you are given the Title of 'The Curator', the doors are opened and random visitoirs come and pay to walk the halls.

 

hehe,

 

I know we can do this to an extent with Castle addons and such, but to have a place where every item in Skyrim is on exhibition, and it was your chosen function (Maybe by accepting a quest to trigger the start) to set up this display would be awesome.

 

Ah well, gotta love daydreams. ;)

I LOVE your idea.

I mean, every time I play, I end up putting all those shiney/unique stuff I find in a CHEST, where no one can see them.

It would be a lot easier to walk up to a diplay case/shelf or something press use, get into it's ''inventory'' put stuff there, and it would be positioned properly. (God knows, how many times I had to replace my *something* in a jar because it rolled away somehow...)

Anyways. I second the idea.
