Homes of your characters Options

[Lopov]

I found such thread in the Skyrim forums but not here so I'm starting one, the main purpose is not to clutter the regular screenshot thread because as new pics are posted there, some pics are hard to find after awhile. Feel free to post any kind of homes of your characters.

I'll start with Oberon's home northeast of Bruma, namely Snowdrift Manor. While this house is added by Better Cities, it's called Reagan's House by default and you can't own it. I removed its owner with the CS, renamed it to Snowdrift Manor and made Oberon as its owner.

Here are some pics:

Neat manor house that Obe has!

Persephone has had several lairs.

The one in Cyrodiil is an old castle on the border of Hammerfell (added by Unique Landscapes - Cloudtop Mountains, and heavily modded by me)

Ah... I know that tower well.

One of my favorite house mods is Phitt's Mad Mage's Tower? (though it's so quirky that I don't have a character who would actually choose to live there - though I like it so much that I plan on creating a character just for that purpose). It sits in just about that exact spot though. There's a compatibility patch for it, but all it does is fix the land tears and raise it a bit so that the door isn't buried - the two towers are still butted up against each other.

So some time back (when I was trying it out for a home for Bogmok, which didn't work out since the place terrified him), I did my own patch and moved it to the next peak over - to the left from the stairs up to the top rather than to the right.

Here's a view of it from the front of the existing tower (hereinafter known in my game as "Persephone's Tower").

And a shot of the whole area, with both towers.

That was Hanna the elf - the animal conjurer who most recently adventured in the Shivering Isles - in the first pic. Since I've hit something of a wall with Bob, I spent last night traveling with her, so when it came time to get those shots, I just loaded up her game and fast traveled up there. She's actually in the middle of finally dealing with the Orrery quest.

But that's not pertinent to this thread. Houses... that's pertinent to this thread.

This'll take a while, and multiple posts, so I'm going to work my way through the existing posts, and add my own stuff here and there. First, I want to get out of the way the handful of characters I have who live in vanilla houses, since I can just mention them and everybody knows what the houses look like.

Bob (in his first incarnation) owned all the houses. He kept his best stuff in Rosethorn Hall, but mostly worked out of the Waterfront Shack.

Jean the Redguard is a permanent resident of the Shivering Isles and lives in the Duke of Dementia's quarters.

Tim the Enchanter lives in the Archmage's quarters.

Kyla the noble Dunmer lives in the Bruma house. She fell in love with Bruma early on, and it was a natural.

Lydia the Breton ginger lives in the Cheydinhal house.

Jana the Nord goddess lives in Battlehorn Castle.

Z'ren the Khajiit stealth fighter and Arlowe Clanler the (randomly generated) Imperial petty thief both live, in their own games, in the IC Waterfront Shack.

And that's it. I've got some characters who haven't settled down anywhere specific yet, and a few more who are wanderers by nature and aren't going to settle down (and, notably, Hale the Nord dolt, who doesn't know enough to even come in out of the rain), and everyone else lives in modded houses of one sort or another. I'll deal with those over time. I've got screenshots of some of them already, but this post has gone on long enough.
