Scrollhammer: Great Houses of Morrowind
by Duke and Lolpwnt
Introduction[edit]
Beyond the Land of the Niben and the Land of the Sky, beyond the endless mountains, lies the mysterious eastern empire of Morrowind. There dwell the Dark Elves, the Dunmer in their tongue, cursed by the Daedric Prince Azura to have skin of Ash and eyes of Fire. For it is in Ash and Fire that the Dunmer live their lives, the shadow the great Red Mountain in the heart of the holy island of Vvardenfell.
The Dunmer are a grim and dour people, capable of living for centuries in an inhospitable land. Ash storms and horrific diseases ravage crops and farmers every year. Armor and weapons are forged from the carapaces of the many giant insects and other strange creatures that roam the land. Pale, dark mushrooms grow alongside twisted trees in the endless swamps. Rivers of lava flow across the desert slopes of the Red Mountain. And at the top of the Red Mountain itself dwells Dagoth Ur, the Sharmat, who sends forth countless plagues and storms upon all Morrowind.
The Dunmer take refuge in the faith known as the Tribunal Temple, dedicated to the worship of the three entities Almalexia, Sotha Sil and Vivec. These three are ALMSIVI, the physical gods who have ruled Morrowind for three thousand years. Processions of priests and pilgrims cross the perilous land, wearing robes, veils, and resin eye-goggles. They brave even the ash storms to pray to their gods at the holy shrines, that their ailments might be healed. Many leave their homes forever and follow them on these pilgrimages, for it is an honor to be chosen as a Priest of the Tribunes. The rites of the Temple faith are countless and utterly alien to human religion, filled with masks and eerily chanted hymns. The Temple teaches that ALMSIVI dwell in mortal flesh in the highest temples of their holy cities, and that from their blessings are the Dunmer preserved. Only the Ashlanders, the savage tribes who dwell on the slopes of the Red Mountain, reject the authority of the Temple over all things.
The Dunmer first came to Morrowind before the rise of mankind, as the pale-skinned Chimer, or Changed Folk, following the Prophet Veloth the Pilgrim. In these days, the Land of Ash was known as Resdayn. Veloth taught that the kingdoms of his fellow Elves, all the ancient empires of Summurset Isle, Valenwood, Cyrodiil and Pyandonea, had grown decadent and false. He taught his people that the philosophies and religions of other Elves were likewise foolish. In the place of the Aedra, the Chimer worshiped the Daedra: Azura, Prince of Dusk and Dawn, Boethiah, Prince of Ambition, and Mephala, Prince of Secrets. They meanwhile sought to appease or battle their Daedric enemies, Mehrunes Dagon, Molag Bal, Malacath and Sheogorath, the Four Corners of the House of Troubles. Veloth taught the Chimer to live out their lives loyal to the Temple, and to pursue the oft-deemed impossible Psijiic Endeavor, CHIM in the language of the Ehlnofey. Through virtue and enlightenment, the Chimer were taught, they might be blessed with godhood.
Veloth's followers lived as nomads for millennia, but many of the clans united into the Great Houses. These families each ruled a section of Resdayn, seeking profits as a syndicate while meanwhile providing temporal government to the local tribesmen. The Great Houses made war upon each other, until but six remained: Indoril, Redoran, Telvanni, Hlaalu, Dres and Dagoth.
But the Chimer were not the only inhabitants. For the Dwemer, the Dwarves, had long inhabited much of Vvardenfell. The Dwarves were first scorned by the Chimer for not worshiping the gods, but instead entirely devoting themselves to worldly matters of magic and science. But in the First Era, Resdayn was conquered by Men, and incorporated into a larger empire. For two hundred years, the Great Houses were put under the authority of humans. It was in the 5th century of the First Era that a young hero of House Indoril, Nerevar by name, was named Hortator, supreme commander of the armies of every Great House. Nerevar held the First Council with his advisors and with Dumac, King of the Dwarves. Chimer and Dwemer united, and overthrew the foreign rulers. A peace was made afterward between the newly independent nations of Mer.
But the peace would not last forever. For the Dwarves had found the Heart of the Missing God Lorkhan within the Red Mountain. Kagrenac, Chief Tonal Architect of the Dwemer, forged Tools of incredible power, through which the divinity of the Heart of the World could be channeled. Tapping into the powers emanating from the heart, Kagrenac formed Numidium, the Brass God, a war golem hundreds of feet high. The Dwarves plotted to achieve godhood, as an entire race, in due time. The Chimer were appalled by this, and went to war with the Dwarves to stop them. But Voryn, leader of House Dagoth, betrayed his fellow Chimer. To secure the power of the heart for himself, he made false promises offering it to the human King Wulfharth, who came to the aid of the Dwarves in the battle.
This army crushed the Chimer, again and again. It was only then that Nerevar was once more made Hortator that they stood their ground, uniting every House and Tribe against their enemies. The Temple teaches that Nerevar became Herald of the Tribune Way through this war, guided by ALMSIVI in righteous fury. For his wife was the goddess Almalexia in physical form, and the gods Sotha Sil and Vivec came to him and gave him advice and wisdom. Nerevar infiltrated the fortress of the Dwemer, at the peak of Red Mountain, and slew Dumac and Kagrenac for their heresy. He then did battle with his former friend, Voryn Dagoth, and defeated him. But through these events it is said he was mortally wounded, and did not live to see the next day dawn. The entire race of Dwemer, save one, disappeared in an instant.
Another source says that Voryn Dagoth did not reveal his treachery to Nerevar until Nerevar attempted to destroy the Heart. And yet another claims that Lorkhan himself fought in the battle. But regardless of which historical account is used, Nerevar fell at Red Mountain, and the Dwarves vanished.
It is then that the Temple teaches that ALMSIVI ascended their thrones, having long been Anticipated as the True Gods of the Chimer by Azura, Boethiah and Mephala. The Chimer were cursed by Azura for the shameful events of the war and the slaying of Nerevar; it was then that they became the Dunmer, their faces and eyes transfigured into same the hellish darkness of the Red Mountain. Indoril Nerevar was forever made a saint of the Tribunal Temple. For two thousand years, the Great House high culture thrived throughout Morrowind, led by House Indoril and the Tribunal Temple. Countless slaves were taken from the southern parts of Tamriel to Morrowind, toiling their days in vast plantations. Vast cities were built, and holy shrines were built to the Temple of ALMSIVI.
At the end of the First Era, after an eighty year's war, the Tribunal made peace with the human Empire of Cyrodiil. They would hold a nominal place in the Empire, but be governed primarily by their own laws and customs. It was in these later days of cooperation with the Empire that Voryn Dagoth awoke. Before Nerevar had slain him, he had used the Tool of Kagrenac himself, and had used the Heart to become a god. Now immortal, and possessing incredible powers, he unleashed the Blight upon Morrowind, causing all its inhabitants and their livestock to die in droves. He unleashed Corprus upon them, a plague twisting the flesh of its victims until they became deformed beyond recognition, while twisting their minds until they went mad. He was Dagoth Ur, Lord of the Sixth House once more. He stole the Tools of Kagrenac back from the Temple, and prepared a master plan. The Empire would no longer hold any power in Morrowind, or anywhere else; all the world would be his.
And not even ALMSIVI could hold Dagoth Ur forever. Vivec, Almalexia and Sotha Sil constructed the Ghostgate, an impenetrable wall made of the revenant dead, called up once more to serve their descendants. But even that did not suffice. At the end of the Third Era, the Great Houses of Morrowind were desperate for a hero, or even a flicker of hope, to allow them to survive the return of the Sixth House. But little time remained.
The following book contains the rules necessary to field a Dunmer Great House army in games of Scrollhammer.
Army List[edit]
Types of Lists[edit]
There are five Great Houses which competed for the control of the Land of Ash in the days of Nerevarine. Each of the Great Houses has its own personal history, traditions and beliefs. Consequently, each Great House forms its armies from a different combination of the units in this book.
In addition, each Great House, as well as the Nerevarine if taken with the Lone Hero option(see section 3.6.10), counts as a separate army for alliances: they use separate rules for alliances, and may ally with one another.
Great House Indoril[edit]
At the heart of Morrowind, the far east of Tamriel, lies the great cities of House Indoril. Nerevar, the greatest hero of the Dunmer, who led the alliance of Elves and Dwarves against the human King Wulfharth at Red Mountain, was a leader of House Indoril. As the most historically powerful of the Great Houses, Indoril is steeped in countless millennia-old traditions, providing secular governance where needed in the sacred cities of the Tribunal. Its banners are white, pure as its faith in the God-Kings of Morrowind.
A House Indoril army uses the following list:
Heroes: Noble(Indoril), Warrior Priest.
Core: Ordinators, Temple Priests, Warriors(Indoril), Slaves, Outriders.
Elite: Great House Agents(Indoril), Morag Tong Assassins, Bonewalkers, Silt Strider, 0-1 Holy Orders
Support: Ancestral Ghosts, Bonelords, Siege Strider
A House Indoril army may choose to take Great House Agents as Core. If Great House Agents are taken as Core, Ordinators, Warriors and Outriders must be taken as Elite instead.
Great House Hlaalu[edit]
The wealthiest and most influential of the Great Houses is Hlaalu. Owning mines and plantations all across Morrowind and Vvardenfell, and bordering the Imperial Province itself, House Hlaalu makes lucrative trade with the Empire, and accepts a certain amount of Imperial authority over their lands and people. As a result, in the days of the Nerevarine, both the Duke of Vvardenfell and the King of Morrowind were Hlaalu councilors. Hlaalu is not a full ally of the Empire, however; its most corrupt faction, a criminal organization known as the Camonna Tong, wishes to expel the Empire and its citizens from Morrowind. House Hlaalu's banners are yellow, and gold is its only master.
A House Hlaalu army uses the following list:
Heroes: Noble(Hlaalu).
Core: Warriors(Hlaalu), Slaves, Outriders, Great House Agents(Hlaalu), Camonna Tong Thugs.
Elite: Spellswords, Morag Tong Assassins, Bonewalkers, Silt Strider, 0-1 Ordinators, 0-1 Holy Orders.
Support: Temple Priests, Ancestral Ghosts, Bonelords, Siege Strider.
Great House Redoran[edit]
Along the border with Skyrim lies the Great House Redoran. Forged in martial tradition and vows of honor, Redoran's nobles brave the Ashlands themselves to hold their great councils. On the slopes of Red Mountain, they defend their fortress, the hollowed shell of a city-sized Emperor Crab, from all the terrors of the wastes. In the west of their territory, they proudly make war against the kingdoms of the Nords. The knights of Redoran bear a grim and gloomy temperament, battling endless hardships with a strict sense of duty. House Redoran's banners are crimson, as is the blood they shed for the defense of the Morrowind, the honor of their House, and the glory of the Tribunal.
A House Redoran army uses the following list:
Heroes: Noble(Redoran), Warrior Priest.
Core: Warriors(Redoran), Slaves, Outriders, Redoran Knights.
Elite: Spellswords, Great House Agents(Redoran), Morag Tong Assassins, Bonewalkers, Silt Strider, Ordinators, 0-1 Holy Orders.
Support: Temple Priests, Ancestral Ghosts, Bonelords, Siege Strider.
A House Redoran army may choose to take Great House Agents as Core. If Great House Agents are taken as Core, Warriors, Knights and Outriders must be taken as Elite instead.
Great House Dres[edit]
In the south of Morrowind is an endless spread of farms and jungles, wondrously fertile land, cultivated by the labor of millions of wretched slaves. It is Great House Dres that rules these lands. Followers of the most ancient Dunmer ways, House Dres is a rigid society that only rarely does business outside of Morrowind. When warriors of Dres do leave their homeland, it is most often on raids into Argonia and Elsweyr, to kidnap Lizardmen and Khajiiti by the thousand. These captives are taken by sail to the great port of Tear; there they are sold as slaves to Dunmer from all across Morrowind, never to see their homes again. The banners of House Dres are dark blue, the color of the seas they cross to make slaves of the beast-folk.
A House Dres army uses the following list:
Heroes: Noble(Dres), Warrior Priest.
Core: Warriors(Dres), Slaves, Outriders
Elite: Spellswords, Great House Agents(Dres), Morag Tong Assassins, Bonewalkers, Silt Strider, 0-1 Ordinators, 0-1 Holy Orders.
Support: Temple Priests, Ancestral Ghosts, Bonelords, Siege Strider, Ash Wasp Raiders.
A House Dres army may choose to take Great House Agents as Core. If Great House Agents are taken as Core, Warriors and Outriders must be taken as Elite instead.
Great House Telvanni[edit]
In the far north-east of Tamriel, across the grey islands of the Sea of Ghosts, are the spiraling towers of House Telvanni. Otherworldly in shape, the towers are giant mushrooms, magically grown and hollowed out to form the abodes of the great Master Sorcerers. These lords of House Telvanni pay little attention to the people they rule, and ignore the dictates of the Temple and the envoys of the Empire. They spend their lives hidden in their towers, performing forbidden rituals and conducting gruesome experiments. Some wizards of House Telvanni live unnaturally long lives, reaping the rewards of the secret magics they have long pondered. Others are murdered by rival sorcerers, covetous of their title or research. Still others have gone mad, their minds twisted into fried shells by the powers that have flowed through them. The banners of House Telvanni are brown like the towers of fungus they dwell in; "knowledge is power" is their only creed.
A House Telvanni army uses the following list:
Heroes: Sorcerer.
Core: Spellswords(Telvanni), Warriors(Telvanni), Slaves, Outriders.
Elite: Great House Agents(Telvanni), Morag Tong Assassins, Silt Strider.
Support: Siege Strider(Telvanni).
Various models in a Telvanni army use summoned Daedra, according to the rules in Scrollhammer: Daedra Cults.
A House Telvanni army may choose to take Great House Agents as Core. If Great House Agents are taken as Core, Warriors, Spellswords, and Outriders must be taken as Elite instead.
Heroes[edit]
Noble[edit]
The Great Houses of Morrowind are ruled by councils of nobles. Some of these magnates hold their position by birth; others by wealth, others by merit. The nobles embody the great ambition and pride considered high virtues among the Dunmer; they lead their House's armies and thugs against its enemies, ever seeking to improve their status above that of their many bitter rivals.

Warrior Priest[edit]
The Tribunal Temple provides spiritual rule over the Dunmer of Morrowind. Countless pilgrims make dangerous journeys through the Ashlands to bow at the shrines of noble saints or appease the Daedra. Escorting such travelers is taken as a duty by many disciples of the Temple, in the hopes of proving themselves worthy of ALSMIVI, or out of aspirations of sainthood. The masters of the Temple are therefore skilled in the arts of both healing and battle, and have been known to put these twin talents to use in times of war.

Sorcerer[edit]
The mad Sorcerers who rule Great House Telvanni are rarely seen by other Dunmer. Dwelling high in their fungal towers, they ponder heretical tomes, and perform unthinkable rituals. A Telvanni wizard hollows out the living space of his tower at the very peak, keeping out those incapable of magical flight. In doing so, he ensures that no meddlesome commoners will interrupt his studies, and no Temple Priests will lay hands on him for consorting with Daedra or enslaving the dead. After spending centuries in their isolated lairs, the mages of House Telvanni hone their magical talents to nigh-perfection, and proceed to utterly destroy all who once sought to thwart them.

Core[edit]
Slaves[edit]
Slavery is widely practiced throughout Morrowind. The warriors of House Dres go forth on raids into the jungles of the southern half of Tamriel, bringing back throngs of Khajiiti and Argonians in chains. These unfortunates are sold to every Great House: Hlaalu, Dres and Indoril use slaves for farm and house labor, the warriors of Redoran use them for gladiatorial combat, and the wizards of Telvanni consider their slaves to be laboratory assistants or test subjects. Cursed manacles are often bought for slaves, preventing those suspected of knowing magic from using it effectively to escape. The Khajiit and Argonian species are considered by Dunmer to be worthy of slavery, a little bit wiser than animals, but still mere beasts compared to Merkind. Slaves of other races are found only in very small numbers, most often from among criminals who have offended House Dres.
Slaves are often mobilized for war in time of need. They are poor substitutes for the warrior retainers of the Great Houses, and rebellion is a constant danger while slaves are armed; nevertheless they are an inexpensive army for a Dunmer lord to raise, and a far less costly one to lose.
3 pts per Slave, 6 pts for Slavedriver. Core. Horde, Infantry. Each Slave is either Khajiit or Argonian. Slavedrivers are Dark Elves. 19-79 Slaves, 1 Slavedriver per unit.

All Slaves in the unit may take Leather Armor for +1/2 pt per model.
Warriors[edit]
Dunmer Warriors make up the core of the standing armies of the Great Houses. Some regiments of warriors consist of retainers and Oathmen, the guards of the Great House who both enforce law and order in the streets of their cities and fight for the nobles when the House goes to war. Others are mercenary thugs, sell-swords sent to do the House's dirty work. The Blade, Bow and Spell are the three great Dunmer arts of combat; garrisons of Dunmer warriors vary in their choice of weapon from village to village.

Outriders[edit]
The Guar is among the most common form of livestock in Morrowind. A two-legged predator with wide jaws, they have been domesticated as steeds and pack animals for generations. They often are ridden into battle, providing an element of speed to the Dunmer war-host. Horses, normally considered a delicacy by Dunmer, are occasionally ridden into battle as well, but not as often as Guars; the ash storms and blight of the Red Mountain sicken them.

Redoran Knights[edit]

Camonna Tong Thugs[edit]
The Camonna Tong is an infamous organized syndicate. Led by none other by Orvas Dren, brother of the Duke of Vvardenfell, the Camonna Tong is well known for its dominance in the black market, smuggling Skooma and other banned goods. Agents of the Camonna Tong have a heavy influence on House Hlaalu, bribing and threatening the nobles, and even joining the House to influence it from within.

Great House Agents[edit]
The intrigues between the Great Houses are legendary in scale. The law of Morrowind restrains the Houses from engaging in large scale wars, but all forms of underhanded activity are tolerated. Espionage, sabotage and assassination are frequently carried between Houses by hired thugs. Those who are caught are often may find themselves subject to heavy fines or outlawry, depending on the severity of their actions and the number of friends they have in high places. It is by this indirect means that the various factions of Morrowind vie for power over land, people and resources.

Morag Tong Assassins[edit]
The secretive brotherhood known as the Morag Tong are the Temple's primary means of keeping the peace among the Great Houses. Followers of Mephala, the Morag Tong venerate the art of murder, performing assassinations in exchange for money or equipment. They are not savage killers, however, but instruments of a strange form of justice; most criminal convictions in Morrowind result in heavy fines, with the wronged party being given the legal right to use that money to pay the Morag Tong to assassinate the guilty party. The Morag Tong send forth an assassin, bearing an Honorable Writ of Execution, who bears the legal authority to track and kill the criminal. It is only rarely that the Morag Tong will use their power and resources to conduct illegal assassinations, or to kill outlanders; they prefer to keep their hands clean of all blood that they are not sanctioned to shed.
It is by this means that the Great Houses are able to go to war with one another, while rarely setting off overtly bloody feuds or pitched battles. Should there be a misconduct among members of two Houses, the Morag Tong is permitted to avenge whatever grievances result from the action. As an organization primarily internal to Morrowind, whenever the Morag Tong appear in battle, it is only in time of dire need, or when they are tracking an enemy leader to prepare for the kill.

Bonewalkers[edit]
Among the sacred duties of the Tribunal Temple is the preservation of the bones of Dunmer ancestors. The tombs of every great family are scattered all across Morrowind, endless mazes filled with thousands of years of buried dead. The Holy City of Necrom, in the east of east, contains thousands of such tombs. To guard these tombs, the priests of the Temple call back the spirits of the strongest bodies buried there, reanimating their corpses as Bonewalkers.

When these blessed guardians of flesh and bone appear upon the battlefield, they instill dread in the enemies of ALMSIVI.

The various sects of Ordinators are devoted to the Temple's many militant endeavors: the execution of heretics and the quelling of Daedric uprisings.

Special Characters[edit]
Vivec, the Warrior-Poet[edit]
Vivec is the VI of ALMSIVI, the eternal Warrior-Poet. He is Vehk and Vehk, mortal and god, for he stands one-half Chimer and one-half Dunmer above Nirn, while also dwelling eternally in the Aether. Mephala is his anticipation, for he is at once Vehk and Vehk, mortal and god, man and woman, Chimer and Dunmer. He is Thief, the brave rogue, and with his song writes truths into existence. His holy city lies upon the south coast of Vvardenfell; he is forever called upon by the prayers of Dunmer, begging for deliverance from Dagoth Ur. Many battles has he fought forever and ever to defeat Lord Dagoth, each time banishing the Devil of the Red Mountain until his next return.
The Temple of ALMSIVI teaches that VI was hatched into the mortal world from the egg of a netch-wife cast into the sea, and raised by the kingdoms of the Dreughs. In the form of a woman he was beloved of Molag Bal, who taught him the ways of godhood. He was ravished by Molag Bal while his head was disembodied, and so came to the King of Rape his lover, and from him learned the art of belly-magic. From this, Vehk and Vehk became father-mother to a brood of devils, who tore apart the land, until he smote them all with his Spear Milk-Finger.
To Nerevar, the legends call him mentor, that with his verse and riddles he instructed the young hero in the path to Royalty over all things. In the days of Nerevar, the Lie Rock, Baar Dau, fell forth from the heavens toward the city of Vivec; with his hand Vivec bound the rock to remain above the city, but to once more fall and destroy it should the Dunmer cease to love him. Vivec advised Nerevar before the Battle of Red Mountain. When Nerevar fell, and Azura's curse was brought upon the Dunmer, he ascended to be forevermore worshiped as the One who Mephala Anticipates. For a thousand and thousand more years he ruled Morrowind alongside his goddess-lover Almalexia and the mystic deity Sotha Sil. It was only at the end of this golden age that the Empire came to Morrowind.
Vivec fought to ensure a high level of independence for Morrowind, even with the nation's membership in the Empire. In the days of the Akaviri invasion, Vehk taught his people to breathe water, and called forth a great flood to drown the Armies of the East of East. When Dagoth Ur awoke, Vehk went forth with his armies and smote him again and again. But Dagoth Ur grew stronger, and stole the Tools of Kagrenac over which the War of the First Council was fought. But in the days of Nerevar, Vivec came to dwell within his palace alone, in meditation; only the highest Priests are allowed in his holy presence.
The teachings and mysteries of Vehk and Vehk are held within his Thirty-and-Six Sermons, by which Nerevar is instructed, and in which many truths are hidden. Vehk walks Nirn in the form of a mortal, bound to time, while Vehk walks the Aether as a god, born before all time begins. For he is Vivec.

Almalexia, Blessed and Merciful[edit]
Almalexia, or Ayem, is the Healing Mother of Morrowind, and the ALM of ALMSIVI. Appearing as a beautiful Chimer woman, this goddess is renowned for her senses of justice mercy. Said to have taken mortal shape before the hatching of Vivec, Almalexia long has ruled the Dunmer people as a mother figure. In the days of the First Council, she was wife to Indoril Nerevar. Upon her husband's death, she became the lover of Vivec, and reigned over Morrowind from its capital, Mournhold. The Temple has long worshiped her and heeded her soothing and gracious commands. Countless pilgrims flock to her holy city to receive her gifts.
But there is another side to Almalexia, for Boethiah, Prince of Plots, is her Anticipation. She has the form of both a mortal and a god, just as Vivec does. Her sign, however, is the Warrior; with her divine powers, she heals her children in times of peace, strictly punishes them in times of disobedience, and defends them in times of war. Many times has the Mother of the Dunmer defended them in battle, her face beneath an ornate battle-mask, her weapon Hopesfire, twin sword to the blade of fallen Nerevar.

Sotha Sil, the Mystery[edit]
The third of the Tribunes is Sotha Sil, or Seht, the SI of ALMSIVI. The scriptures of the Temple begin the tale of Sotha Sil as one who awoke among mortals as a God of Wizardry, while existing in the body of a mortal Chimer simultaneously. Sotha Sil was fascinated with the machines of the Dwemer, and sought to learn more of the magic and scientific knowledge behind their creation. Aiding Indoril Nerevar as a mage, he became fully accepted as a god after the War of the First Council; Azura is his anticipation. His appearance is that of a Chimer wearing a mechanical suit of armor, the top half of his face obscured by a golden mask.
Sotha Sil is the Mystery of Morrowind, for he is incredibly secretive in his ways. Rather than ruling a holy city populated by Dunmer, he spends his time in a vast series of underground tunnels, serving as his fortress and laboratory. Inspired by the designs of the Dwemer, he has developed an intricate system of clockwork technology. From his hiding-place, he has rarely shown his face upon the sunlit world. In earlier eras, he would often come up to the surface as the Light of Knowledge: he imparted his mysticism to the Psijiic Order, and assisted his sister Almalexia defending Mournhold against Mehrunes Dagon. But in more recent centuries, he has kept to himself, planning and building beneath the earth, in hopes of one day remaking the world in his image.
500 pts. Sotha Sil may be taken as a Hero choice in any Great House army. An army containing Sotha Sil may take units of Fabricants as core units, and may take Imperfects as Elite units. All other Core units become Elite(unless another one of the Tribunal is present in the army). Independent Character, Skirmish, Infantry. Single Model.

Friendly units within 12" of Sotha Sil may choose to march an additional 2" through open terrain without having to roll. If they do this, they must take a dangerous terrain test.
Domewire Contraption: Wires run forth from Sotha Sil's armored carapace, conducting magical energies to and from him. Artifact. Sotha Sil recharges his Power Dice at the start of every turn, not just at the start of each of your turns(see Magic rules in the Scrollhammer Rulebook for details).

On a roll of a 1 at the end of turn 3, a 1-2 at the end of turn 4, and a 1-3 at the end of each of the following turns, Sotha Sil vanishes from the battlefield in pursuit of another goal that seems more interesting to him. If such a result is rolled, he is immediately removed as a casualty.
The Order of the Buoyant Armigers[edit]
The Buoyant Armigers are among the most elite forces in all Morrowind. Their number is few, but they are magnificent in battle: honorable knight-assassins, poets and slayers of monsters, possessing incredible bravado beneath their grim Dunmeri demeanors. They are sworn to service to Vivec, the Master of Morrowind, chosen from the bravest nobles in all the land. They fight endlessly for their god, choosing to emulate him in their lives, ever vigilant against the predations of the Sixth House.

Clockwork Fabricants and Imperfects[edit]
Among the strangest of Sotha Sil's inventions are the Fabricants. These insectoid automatons are formed of both flesh and metal, and driven by internal systems of gears and pulleys. They are a terrifying foe to behold in battle, should the Mystery decide to go to war.

Divayth Fyr, Oldest of the Telvanni[edit]
In the fungus-tower of Tel Fyr, hidden in the coastal islands of Vvardenfell, there has lived a mysterious sorcerer for ages longer than can be remembered. Before the coming of the Empire, even before the birth of Indoril Nerevar, the reclusive wizard Divayth Fyr dwelt in his ash-swept hall. Master Fyr has over the millennia studied and mastered every form of magic, and acquired an impressive collection of artifacts. He has walked the realms of Oblivion, and has developed a method by which he can travel in and out of them with a wave of his hand. He has discovered many strange secrets, by which he has given himself unnatural vitality and prevented his body from ever aging.
In recent times, he has delved into the exotic magic of Biomancy. He has cloned several female versions of himself, who serve as his bodyguard. Another current feature of his Tower is the Corprusarium. Guarded by a manumitted former slave of his, this series of chambers is a refuge for those afflicted by Corprus, the most terrifying of all the plagues unleashed by Dagoth Ur. Countless poor souls, deformed and driven mad by the disease, wander the bowels of his tower, as Master Fyr works tirelessly to develop a cure. Among the number of the infected within Tel Fyr is Yagrum Bagarn, the last of the Dwarves.
Divayth Fyr is the most powerful and ancient wizard in all of House Telvanni, but has never joined the House's council. He has expressed that he takes no interest in the politics and murderous conspiracies of his fellow sorcerers.

Saint Jiub the Eradicator[edit]
One of the great modern saints of the Temple is Saint Jiub the Beast-Slayer. Once a prisoner, sentenced to death for his crimes as a hired killer, Saint Jiub arrived on Vvardenfell with his future companion in battle, the Nerevarine. It is said he journeyed with the reborn Nerevar over much of Vvardenfell as the great warrior fought against the Sixth House. But it was not by fighting alongside the Incarnate that Jiub would earn his sainthood, for he was not present at the Siege of Red Mountain; Jiub performed his greatest deeds soon after. For the Cliff Racers, wild winged beasts native to Vvardenfell, had long preyed on the island's livestock, and even attacked Temple pilgrims on occasion. Cliff Racer flocks had forever been the scourge of the Ashen Isle. Jiub hunted these creatures without mercy, and drove away from Vvardenfell.
Appointed a living saint for his actions, he became renowned as a great hero of Vvardenfell. He fought on against the wilds, until the end of the Third Era, when he went into retirement in Colovia to write his memoirs. It was there that he fell at the Battle of Kvatch, his soul stolen by the hordes of Daedra which had come forth from the Deadlands of Mehrunes Dagon. All Morrowind mourned at the news that their living saint had perished against the armies of the House of Troubles.

The Nerevarine[edit]
Among the greatest secrets of the Tribunal Temple is a foul heresy, unspeakable and unthinkable, written in the books of the Apographa. All who utter it or possess the Apographa disappear in the night, at the hands of the Ordinators of Inquisition. It is this heresy that the Ashlanders believe, and this heresy which is hinted at in the forbidden Eighteenth Sermon of Vivec. The heresy is the Cult of the Nerevarine.
Those who believe in the Cult of the Nerevarine believe a different version of history than that which the Temple claims. The Tribunal were not born as gods, but only as mortals. Nerevar was not slain by Voryn Dagoth, but defeated him, and proclaimed that no mortal should ever use the Tools of Kagrenac and steal the Godhood. Upon hearing this, his wife Ayem and his advisors Vehk and Seht murdered him, and Vehk applied the Tools to the Heart of Lorkhan. The three murderers thus became the false gods known as the Tribunal, and for this betrayal Azura cursed the Dunmer with their ashen complexion. The old gods of the Dunmer, Azura, Boethiah and Mephala, never intended to be anticipations: and so they vowed, and sent forth prophecies to mortals, that one day Nerevar would return, and destroy Dagoth forever. Following that day, he would next take his revenge upon the lying Tribunal, and unite all Dunmer under the banner of the Princes of Oblivion.
This heresy is true.
Many prophesies have been made, foretelling the end of both the Sixth House and the Tribunal. Among their number is the Lost Prophecy:
"From seventh sign of eleventh generation,
Neither Hound nor Guar, nor Seed nor Harrow,
But Dragon-born and far-star-marked,
Outlander Incarnate beneath Red Mountain,
Blessed Guest counters seven curses,
Star-blessed hand wields thrice-cursed blade,
To reap the harvest of the unmourned house."
And so it must be, that Nerevar Incarnate must be one born from out of Morrowind, and must overcome the Seven Trials:
"Seven Trials: What he puts his hand to, that shall be done. What is left undone, that shall be done.
First Trial: On a certain day to uncertain parents Incarnate moon and star reborn.
Second Trial: Neither blight nor age can harm him. The Curse-of-Flesh before him flies.
Third Trial: In caverns dark Azura's eye sees And makes to shine the moon and star.
Fourth trial: A stranger's voice unites the Houses. Three Halls call him Hortator.
Fifth Trial: A stranger's hand unites the Velothi. Four Tribes call him Nerevarine.
Sixth Trial: He honors blood of the tribe unmourned. He eats their sin, and is reborn.
Seventh Trial: His mercy frees the cursed false gods, Binds the broken, redeems the mad.
One Destiny: He speaks the law for Veloth's people. He speaks for their land, and names them great."
In the latter years of the Third Era, a mysterious wanderer came to Morrowind, claiming to be Nerevarine. Much of him is shrouded in legend, yet it is known that four Ashlander Tribes and three Great Houses united under him against the Sixth House. All who refused to acknowledge him as Hortator from among these Tribes and Houses were killed at his hands. This wanderer was proclaimed Nerevarine by all the Ashlanders, and the Tribunal Temple knew that their end was nigh. Into the streets of Vivec's holy city he marched, and armies of Ordinators fell before him in battle. Now unopposed, he entered the hall of Tholer Saryoni, High Priest of Vivec. Unto this Archcanon, he gave three signs. The first, that he was an Outlander, marked of a star as of yet unknown to the wizened priest. The second, that he bore strange scars, of one who once bore the Curse-of-Flesh Corprus, but had been cured and made immortal. The third, that upon his finger he bore the cursed Moon-and-Star, the ring that none but Nerevar himself could wear and not perish. Thus five of the Trials were complete by this hero. The elder of the Temple bowed his knee to this wanderer, declaring the Prophecies to be true.
And so the newly proclaimed Nerevarine entered the Temple of Vivec, having obtained an audience with the Warrior-Poet himself. Vivec granted Wraithguard unto the wanderer, that he might use the Tools of Kagrenac to destroy the Heart of Lorkhan. For though such an deed would cause the Tribunal to slowly but surely lose their divinity, it would do the same to Dagoth Ur, saving the world from the horrors in store for it. The hero reclaimed Sunder and Keening, and marched upon the Red Mountain. There, Dagoth Ur had used the Tools and the Heart to create a second Numidium, a golem of incredible height and power. As Dagoth Ur prepared to go forth and destroy Morrowind, Nerevarine shattered the Heart with the Tools of Kagrenac. Thus the sixth and seventh prophesies were fulfilled. Azura appeared to him and praised him, for her will had been done that day. From there, Nerevarine went forth and performed countless more great deeds.
It said by some that this hero truly was Nerevar himself, returned to Morrowind. Others say that he was an Imperial spy, as false as the Tribunal, sent to manipulate the Dunmer into complying with the Empire's will. Only the gods know which is true. But it does not matter. For this warrior fought with the blessing of Azura and the spirit of Nerevar, and fulfilled every prophecy. If the slayer of Dagoth Ur was not born the Nerevarine, then he chose to be the Nerevarine out of his own free will, aligning himself with that fate that he might bear the mantle of the hero of old.

Magic Items[edit]

A model may take up to 3 consumables. Other items can be taken freely. Certain items may be further restricted to a particular model. Daedric Artifacts are included in the Artifacts supplement of the Core Rules, and are taken wherever specified for a model.
Items listed as upgrades are enchantments that may be taken as a bonus on a weapon that has not already been enchanted; their cost is in addition to any other costs for the item. Items not listed as upgrades are replacements; their full cost is whatever amount is marked, and they may not be upgraded further. (Replacements are only available to models which could take that class of item to begin with).
Items and spells labelled as "Temple only" may only be given to Warrior Priests, Priests, Ordinators, and to Special Characters where allowed.

Nerevarine Specific Artifacts[edit]
A list of artifacts unique to the Nerevarine.
Tools of Kagrenac: The three Tools of Kagrenac are the devices by which Godhood is to be attained. It was over them that the War of the First Council was fought. The holiest relics of the Temple, two of them, Sunder and Keening, were stolen by Dagoth Ur and granted as boons to his greatest servants. Nerevarine went forth upon a great quest to claim them for himself, taking them back from the House of Ash. For when the Tools are applied to the Heart of Lorkhan, he who wields them is given a grave choice: to steal the Godhood, or forever deny it to all mortals. Sunder and Keening are always dual wielded, and can only be equipped if Wraithguard is also equipped.
Sunder: The Hammer of Kagrenac is a Hand Weapon. Artifact. Attacks from Sunder strike at Initiative 1. Sunder strikes at +3 Strength +6 AP, and re-rolls failed hits.

Countless false Nerevarines have attempted to wear it; each was never seen again. Artifact, Ring. While bearing the Moon-and-Star ring, Nerevarine gains the Hortator ability depending on which allegiance he chooses. Nerevarine may purchase and wear Moon-and-Star in addition to another ring.

Trueflame: The ancient sword of Nerevar, the Sword that Slays Gods, Trueflame was reforged from its shattered pieces as a gift to Nerevarine. Its twin, Hopesfire, is wielded by Almalexia. Artifact, Hand Weapon. Bearer's attacks in close combat strike at +1 Strength, ignores armor saves, Critical Strike(triggered on a to wound roll of 5+), flame, deals d3 wounds.
+55 pts.
Old Man's Lucky Coin: As Nerevarine prepared with his final battle with Dagoth Ur, he was approached by mighty Talos, the Ninth Divine, the God of War in the human pantheon. Talos came not as a god, however, but in the form of an old man clad in Cyrodiilic armor. He granted Nerevarine his lucky coin, a token of his support, a sign that even the Eight and One desired the destruction of the Sixth House. Artifact. While Nerevarine carries the Lucky Coin, he gets one free re-roll of a d6 each game turn(he must abide by the second result).
15 pts.
