What rank, where and why?

The Great House of Redoran is Highly Honored in these tasks indeed! But I, a mere Councilman of Redoran, suppose that even if the Great House may fight the Nords to the west; that does not mean Nordic members should be given a fear or discrimination against.

The Nords are our natural enemies; but this was long ago. During the days where the Dwemer existed and we were still Chimer so say the Tribunal Hierocrypha. (And the Apocrypha for those within our ranks whom doubt the Tribunal's face-value.)

If we to be exact; the Kingdom of Skyrim is our, the Velothi people, natural enemy. But the Nordic people? They are not. Like with the Arnesian War; which we now see there are some flaws in our reasoning to support the war but we still honor the glorious Martyr and his Saint status, we should not see the Argonians as our natural enemy!

They are citizens of this great land, Morrowind, as we are! The Honor within our House that has lasted GENERATIONS, and will last EVEN MORE, must be laid down upon these peoples.

So while we defend Our people, Our Families, Our House and Our Temple from the Skyrim aggression to come; we will gladly accept Nordic people into our ranks. We will even accept Beast-folk to prove to the arrogant and faithless Telvanni, and the opportunistic Hlaalu, that we are a House FOR the people of Morrowind and is made up BY the people of Morrowind!

Though the Nerevarine, Blessed him and May the Three Bless him and his Ancestors, has killed the Devil Dagoth Ur, We must still contain the threat still imposed upon the Mountain. The threat being the remaining Blight Creatures and surviving Dagoth slaves. I propose the Council of the Great House of Redoran, upon the Mainland of BlackLight and in Vvardenfell upon Ald'ruhn, pass a proposal that shall send three Redoran divisions to Ghostgate to help the Buyont Armigers there.

We shall show all that we still have to clean up Red Mountain in order for it to be safe and peaceful for all Dunmeri peoples and non Dunmeri peoples.

But; we mustn't lost sight of what is rightful ours in Vvardenfell as well: the Caldera Ebony Mines.

EDIT: I'd Also like to Join the Great House Redoran.

Question time: How does the former ArchMaster, Bolyn Venim, fare in your eyes my fellow Redorans?

For me it's that he did do some great things such as secure Redoran territory; but in the end he did some crap I just can not forgive (such as Arythn Serthi's son), and his xenophobia does put him at a bad end.

So he's kind of better in my eyes than Ovras Dren. A bit. He did attempt to maintain some kind of pseudo-honor and sometimes abandoned honor for practicability.

But when he starts in fighting within Redoran, having Redoran against Redoran and forget the codes of Redoran is for the people, for honor, and for Temple: He's crossed a line that he can not be forgiven for.

Well got the irony, the Telvanni couldn't accept for they were too divided and their Arch-Magistrate wouldn't intervene or make decisions (such as naming you Hortator; Only Aryon the 'good Telvanni' wants to. And mostly for being the lead-man of Telvanni now in Vvardenfell as if you aren't Telvanni he likely takes over.)

It was within their own quotas of individualism of doing whatever you want that ultimately almost killed them; as there was no boundaries or power someone had over the rest. The Council and the Arch-Magistrate had the same power; just neither had the time to use it.

For Redoran it's the very fact that this change nearly cost their honor and reputation as a peoples-Warrior House. If not a Peoples House (as they are typically more of a "Popular Front" type of House, with mixes of people that have the determination of being honorable to House, Kin, and Temple.), which Bolvyn wasn't being apart of.

Although no doubt he had his qualities, it was that he was using his position as Arch-Master for means-to-ends that benefited *him* in the end rather than the House. For the Sarenthi situation; that is true. But Arythn's son was taken from him without consent and they were ordered to kill him if he tried to escape.

The very idea of a Redoran, much less the Leader, using children within the political game of keeping Arythn quiet is very disturbing and damning of the idea House Redoran was based on. As we seen the Telvanni do it *all* the time. Be it Fyr or any Telvanni. (Ayron didn't do it; but considering he was a direct study of Fyr? He would have done so if it benefited his situationon both making Redoran agree to certain decisions in the Grand Council of Vvardenfell or merely reptuation among the Telvanni Council)

So Bolvyn's methods can be damning of him, even within the understanding of some things he did.

But I don't think it is all 'acceptance' due to Hlaalu was intertwined with the Cammona Tong due to Ovras Dren. The Cammona Tong are still crooks and thugs, they're just bigoted thugs and crooks. Sometimes Slavers.

Even if the Cammona Tong accepted foreigners/outlanders; it wouldn't really redeem House Hlaalu. in reality, House Hlaalu's lesson is to not be as open to Imperial influence or ultra-nationalist influence. The Cammona tong are 'right' to make Morrowind independent. But what they want to do with such is where support leaves.

Xenophobia, keeping tradition of slavery, Dunmeri Supremacist aims and so forth.

I think the main lesson for the Three Great Houses is there are plenty of dangers outside that can dent you or stagger you. But the dangers inside can kill you in one swift motion.

My favorite quest? The Council-member quests and Bal Isra's Manor quest. The Council for you get to do some Abolition work, and realize how the Council works. Sometimes they will go against "tradition" of slavery to both serve themselves (disrupt caldera ebony mines) and to be more of a people's house.

With Bal Isra; it shows you can even be an abolitionist there. Get some beast-folk into your manor (though it never happens) and see how your manor develops as the house that Actually places its home within its territory.

Somewhat; I approve of his House Redoran securing territory. But everything else? No. PAX Redoran actually makes me sympathize with him, and with good reason after his death.

Well...I usually go in par with Temple Quests and Redoran quests; I now sometimes switch clothings when I play as a Temple member and not on Redoran quests (aka wearing 'priestly clothing'), and usually carry all 36 Lessons of Vivec, and Saryoni's Sermons. I devoutly play as a Temple supporting Redoran. I usually play honorably; trying to find the peaceful means if possible. As such with the Mad Lord of Milk. But I am also a Morag Tong member most of the time as well: So when I finally come to terms with fighting, they won't survive long.

"Whether born to the blood of House Redoran, or adopted into service of House Redoran by oath, those who seek to advance in the ranks of House Redoran must demonstrate their virtues by service and obedience. And only when one has mastered all the skills and virtues can one truly call himself a noble of the Great House Redoran."- Serjo Athyn Sarethi

I have, and I have played the others released by the generous modders (whom I speak with for questions, advice and just plain talking ); and I must say. Anyone one whom wants to RP as Redoran or play as it MUST have it. http://lgnpc.org/downloads


Note I'm not only talking about PAX Redoran but also Ald'Ruhn, Ald'Ruhn supplements, Pelegiad, Hla Ode, Ald Velothi, Redoran Vivec, Vivec Foreign-Quarters, and etc.

My opinion is they added alot to make Redoran an alive guild which has its own darkness within its members, and makes bolvyn have a sort of redemption after his death.

It's dynamic so don't expect some things to be built like Raven Rock or Manors; which actually makes it more real. You get to IMAGINE what happens.

It adds alot more quests both relating to other factions (on the Mages Guild Monopoly, Ebony Trade, Hlaalu impersonating a dead-Redoran, and other things); making the factions even more inter-related than they were before.

I do warn though; Do not Join the Morag Tong until after you do your quests for Toris Saren (guy in Redoran canton). He has some interesting quests that will not be offered to you as a Morag Tong member, and especially if you have the writ on him.

I'd love to, though I haven't dwelled much into modding.

But since I do have inspiration (the lovely fellows of PAX Redoran), I'd like to try it. Even though I am a novice of any of those things you have posted, but I'm very keen in story driven aspects, making it very multi-sided (Besides the fact it is OUR land Hlaalu took, West Gnash and Caldera are primarily Redoran territories) conflict as well as add alot of darker faces of Redoran that might appear from the conflict.

Sorry I've missed out so much my faithful warriors. I'm back

Holy [&@%!]! Ezkaton! I mean, My Lord, Redoran stands ready.

Wassup bro? ..Oh and At ease Soldier.

Your new Redoran Councilman stands at the ready to send the enemies of Redoran to Red Mountain itself!
