PLRI0102 "Soulrest: Urukhus Nuccius' House" (Completed)
Official 'Black Marsh' Interior Claim: Urukhus Nuccius' House [/HR] Urukhus Nuccius' House AVAILABILITY: Completed by Ibsen's Ghost [/HR] Urukhus' house is the one in full view to the left. [/HR] Description & Details [/HR] Soulrest is a city of contrasts. On the one hand, it is privy to some of Black Marsh's wealthiest trades and grandiose constructions and, on the other, laying cheek-by-jowl with aspiring merchants, are the gutter-scum that have at times plagued the marshes unchecked. For Soulrest is home to the smugglers, hagglers and Shylocks and the criminal syndicates that run them. Such is the level of corruption that the Sotho Tren, the most renowned of such syndicates have struck a bargain with the city governor. This means that they somehow manage to circumvent all laws that seek to restrict their activity, both on land and, more or less, on the seas. The Imperial navy would love to see them in chains but the governor of Soulrest sees them as merely an alternative to his own guards. If relations are maintained with the syndicates then prosperity in the city can continue. Indeed, the alliance has proved remarkably successful in reducing violent crime since the Tren's presence acts as a deterrent. Yet it is, at times, an uneasy balance to maintain with many foreign authorities applying pressure once stung by one of the many citizens who are so scorpion-like in character. As such, the governor of such a city would need to be a wily soul with a fox-like wit....lucky then that this task has fallen to none other than Smirks-at-Strangers. In history, Soulrest is best known for the Kothringi, a tall, impassive and metallic-skinned marsh-people whom some claim were wedded to the seas though this may be simply gossip. After being wiped out by the Thrassian Plague, the Argonians maintained their legacy...until the port was swamped by foreign influences and became the vagabond's seaport that it remains to this day. Other Kothringi ruins dot the landscape but little trace of the people themselves remain. In truth, Soulrest is a great place for gossip and the occasional bargain. It has a wide range of races passing through its midst though Khajiit and Argonian are the most common. Trading with Topal Isle and the relatively nearby ports of Elsweyr are strong. In more recent history, the Khajiit have thrived in a city that sports their influence. Though there are rumours of Lilmothiit in Southern Argonia, the only evidence of their presence now is the occasional marsh cat. These facts combine to create the inevitable skooma problem that looks set to spiral. This interior claim contains the home of Urukhus Nuccius, the official Dres contact in Soulrest. Once one of numerous wealthy Dunmer merchant families in Soulrest, Urukhus is the symbol of a bygone age of Dunmer superiority over Argonia. Urukhus specialises in Dunmer merchandise and has been known to sell Bonemold armour and chitin armour amongst other assorted decorative items and pieces of furniture. He exercises his privileges with his Dunmer brothers in the North (especially Stormhold) in offering imports from Morrowind via the Topal seas. His connections, however, are ever-dwindling and, as such, is desperate to get a piece of the action of one of the criminal families. Being Dunmer, his morals are loose and there is always the danger that he will step on one too many toes on day... Please provide items for sale on the relevant stall or table nearby and mark them as owned by the NPC. [/HR] At-a-glance Details [/HR] Interior Name: 2BMLRSoulrestLCMerchant01 Region: Parchlands Settlement: Soulrest Architecture: Kothringi LC House Exterior cell coordinates: (-25,-26 of the BlackMarshesSoulrestLowerChildWS) Claim Size & Difficulty: Medium. Inhabitants: The owners have not been created yet. Mission Connections: None as yet. NPCs: 1. The NPC must have (full) dialogue and AI. Please choose an appropriate race (this can be discussed, if needs be). Don't forget the pathgrid for them. The NPC is already named but you may change the name if necessary, so please discuss this and other details in the claims discussion thread ('General Info' below). Here is JK's tutorial on dialogue: Dialogue Tutorial . General Info: Please keep up to date on associated topics in the: Claims Discussion Forums . [/HR] How to mod your interior Interior modding carries with it the same responsibilities as it does on our father project, Silgrad Tower. This means that there will need to be NPCs, Containers, Lighting etc. For a really nice checklist that is very, very thorough, try this one from Zurke: A handy checklist to create an interior for ST . Zurke is the most experienced and prolific interior modder I know of so it's all good advice. [/HR] Cluttering your Interior Please try to use as many of our own BM objects as seems feasible (whichever are appropriate to the owner and the purpose of the building). Unlike the mini-claims, the Soulrest claims do not come with some existing objects present. However, in some of the larger claims, it may prove feasible to copy-and-paste from existing interior claims but please consult a core member before doing so. For more information about mini-claims, read this: Interiors Strategy . In creating your claim, try to consider the story behind the owner of the house (which you may adapt unless stated) and add clutter as appropriate to them and the particular locations. This might include foodstuffs, flora, cutlery, paintings, tribal items, custom furniture, bedding and maybe a desk if this interior involves using the NPC as a trader. There are now LOTS of cultural objects for Argonian dwellings including cupboards, rootchairs and so on but other races can use some of our own items too, especially race-neutral objects such as cutlery, bamboo furniture, ingredients and books. Please ask or check this essential thread to find out more: Clutter Advice . Please remember to light the area. Imperial lighting should mainly be used in Soulrest and we have a few lighting options that are unique although you may consider using SI lights as well if they fit with the interior in question. If you have any further suggestions, requests for models and so on then please consult this thread: Furnitures & Clutters or this one: http://www.silgrad.com/wbb2/thread.php?threadid=11447. Just ask if you have any special ideas for extra models. Have fun! :goodjob:

I think this guy's name needs to be changed. It sounds pretty Imperial and he should probably have a Dunmeri one...

Also, change the dude's name to Tervos Omavel, a fairly traditional Dunmeri name (he has an Imperial one ATM which doesn't fit with him being a dark elf).

Done. :check:
He is referred to in the CS as Urukhus Nuccius though. We'll just have to manage that little glitch.

No problem, as long as the name comes up OK in-game.
