The Treasure of Riverwood Manor

"Riverwood Manor is the scene of an old legend. Rumor has it that Riverwood Manor was once built by a Dragonborn. Not much can be said about the former owner, except that he mysteriously disappeared and is said to have left behind a fabulous treasure. Perhaps the new owner will find the legendary treasure one day, should it really exist." (Author unknown)

This extensive mod features a small and simple player house near Riverwood for beginners, a second player home as an alternative, an epic treasure hunt, unique NPCs and followers, real master trainers, powerful equipment, weapons and spells. There are new locations to explore, several eastereggs and much more to discover.



Requires Skyrim Special Edition 1.6.342.0 or greater. NOT SUPPORTED ON OLDER VERSIONS!

Main Features:

Player Home

A small player home near Riverwood with everything you need for a good start. The estate contains things like forge, workbench, smelter, grain mill, garden with fertile soils for planting, an oven, a functional butterchurn for homemade butter as well as training dummies with which you can improve your skills and many other features. The Armory in the basement has lots of weapon racks and mannequins to display your weapons and armor.

In the trophy room you have the opportunity to display your collectibles such as dragon priest masks, dragon claws and so on.

The estate is located west of Riverwood and is marked on the map. In order to get the key for the house, read the note at the door. This will start the quest.

The house is fully Hearthfire compatible, which means your whole family can move in, but you need to install the MOD [/url]Hearthfire Multiple Adoptions for this to work, which is optional. If you don't want your family to move in, you don't need to install that mod.

A second alternative player home has been added in version 1.9.

Treasure Hunt

The treasure hunt features a fabulous treasure with powerful enchanted equipment, weapons and spells, which you will normally not find in Vanilla Skyrim. I don't want to reveal some details, because there would be no surprise and you should have fun to find things out on your own. The treasure is meant for mid and end game, but if you manage it to find the treasure on lower levels, you can consider yourself lucky. But be warned: Some things may be a little bit overpowered then. In order to find the treasure you can use your quest marker, but only up to a certain point, then you will be on your own.

To start the quest read the note in the basement.

Powerful Equipment and Spells

The treasure contains powerful equipment and spells which are optimal for end game or higher difficulties. Beginners will profit massively from new gear provided that they manage to find the treasure and other goodies. Here a list with some equipment you may find (contains spoilers):

New NPCs and Followers

I created some new NPCs, such as merchants and trainers as well as unique followers with particulary powerful abilities that will aid you greatly in combat. Some of them are able to change shape. All NPC's are essential and cannot die.

New locations and more

- Added some caves in the area which you have to explore in order to find the treasure
- Added the ability to do something with your hard earned dragon souls!
Spoiler:  
Show
You can sacrifice dragon souls to get gold, soul gems, perk points or increase your skills. Look for the mysterious stones that are scattered over the area.

- Added more than 28 mod related loading screens

Training dummies

You can use the training dummies in the area to quickly train your combat skills.

There is also a funny spell that will allow you to practice your skills very quickly too ;)
Spoiler:  
Show
Example for doing so: Conjure the useless mighty chicken. Equip the Daedric Armor you have found in the main treasure chest. Attack the chicken with a one-handed weapon. Because of the Lightning Cloak effect of the armor, you will now increase your One-handed and Destruction skill at the same time!

Furthermore, there is a way to increase your sneak skill very fast.
Spoiler:  
Show
Just start sneaking in front of the Statue of Nocturnal in the basement by moving back and forth and so on.


New and improved blessings

Blessing of Nocturnal: Added a better version - Sneaking is now 50% better. Lasts 8 real hours (where to get: basement)
Vanfriddh's Blessing: Time between shouts is reduced by 50%. Carrying capacity increased by 200 points. Lasts: 8 real hours (where to get: Ice Grotto)

Master Trainers

Trainers can now improve your skills up to 25 times per level. This affects all trainers in the game. If you have a mod that does something similar, you will likely need to change your load order. All trainers in this mod can improve your skills up to the maximum of 100.

New Quests

Several new quests have been added.

There is also a small funny hidden quest that you may stumble on during the treasure hunt. There are multiple ways to start and resolve this quest. Simply talk to everyone instead of killing everything in sight ;)

Easter eggs

In order to find them, you have to look in every crate and corner, read all notes, books and talk to everyone. ;)

Tipps for Beginners

Save often! You might encounter some enemies which are extremely powerful even for a high level character. If you have problems to defeat them there are multiple ways in this mod to do so.

If you have just started a new game, look into the chests and cabinets at the beginning. There you will find plenty of useful ressoures for a good start.
