Because the OP mentioned it on Tr or the official ES forums once, and one of my co-students was reading it too, I bought a copy of the first book half a year ago. I'm reading the second part now and although I can see why it's so popular, it really doesn't hold a candle fantasy-wise to Clive Barker,...

Do you have Java installed?

Some time ago I made a Sketchup model of a round temple, that's made out of cake-piece modules. Perhaps there are some ideas there that might work for your temple?

Do whatever you want with this. (including throwing it away and writing your own) I've said goodbye (even though I'm still lurking, which I'm trying very hard to get away from). I might ocassionally post a concept or two in my own thread (trying to get away from that too (hard when you have no life)...

I have a new alternative temple concept, interior and exterior: [url=http://img27.imageshack.us/my.php?image=xfronta.jpg][img]http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/8557/xfronta.th.jpg[/img][/url] [url=http://img27.imageshack.us/my.php?image=xbacka.jpg][img]http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/2796/xbacka.th....

Harke, in the future don't come into a discussion 5 pages without reading what has transpired so far. Especially don't speak with such a certain tone when doing so. Pardon. I really tried to read everything, but somehow I missed the completely awesome concepts at the top of page four when I posted ...

Congratulations! May your administrations be fruitful.

We should design Tear cantons that are based on the cantons in Vivec (same shapes and textures), but are much more slender (four should fit more or less in a Vivec canton, while having the same height). That way we might reuse the vanilla Velothi interior architecture pieces. The cantons, which hous...

Isn't that like..er two holy numbers multiplied or something?

It seems your Lore & Quest shoes will be hard to fill. Your vision of the Hammerfell Lore was the main aspect of TR that capivated me over the last two years. As a matter of fact, how they might unfold is what still draws me to TR from time to time. You certainly have an eye for quality in ideas...

Congratulations.

Congratulations from a 'gone' person.

Thank you for satisfying my curiosity, Lady. I thought it would be something like this.

Just curious... More than two years ago we had a WSG on the [url=http://tamriel-rebuilt.org/old_forum/viewtopic.php?t=17672&highlight=direnni]Direnni Tower[/url]. What was the deal? Were there ever any plans to add it to the mod? (if only as a part of the horizon). If so, what happened to that i...

Revoke.

Real Life is biting me in the buttock. Reasons? 1). Husband now works from home. I've no unmolested modding time before 23:45 AM. 2). Morrowind too buggy. 3). Ran out of writing inspiration. 4). Exams/new academic year 5). Since I stopped working out because of my star-crossed employment at the engi...

Gundammit! Can someone please explain in a few sentences what this anime is about?

1) Interior is clean. 2) Interior is the right mesh (and you seem to have used gridsnap). 3) No North marker. <Put one in and rotate it correctly, preferably at (0,0,0)> 4) Lighting <Illegal To Sleep Here should be ticked> 5) /Furniture mixing <replace everything with ´com´ in its name by some...

Btw, shouldn't there be jungle stuff for the Argon Jungle?

If you can find the word ´Blades´ in my text, you get one Septim.

The text is meant to be a reply to a request for a possible new Blades member to be sent to OE.
Your Blade in OE has requested an inquiry into Cesarion Xiphosurus to determine if he is an applicable candidate.

Decoded Document


Security clearance: secret

Subject: antecedents of prospect Cesarion Xiphosurus
Sender: Operative Ebony Starr, Sentinel Department
Enclosure: family tree


Dear Sir,

As promised, here lies the result of the inquiry into the antecedents of prospect Cesarion Xiphosurus.
The inquiry covered the following subjects; family relations up to the third generation, education, vocation, ancillary activities and motivation.


Family relations:

Prospect’s family tree is quite narrow, it seems all members have lived in Sentinel State for all their lives, with the exception of Claudius Xiphosurus, Cesarion’s father. See enclosure.

Due to his grandmother Bodibara’s profession, Cesarion has only four known great-great-grandparents, who all seem to have been employed in and around Sentinel Cities’ fish markets. Both pairs had only one child each, which seems to be common in the rest of the prospect’s family as well.

His great-grandmother Loti’s parents were called Hortyn and Zarai and his great-grandfather Franklyn’s parents were named Hera and Alys. Loti seems to have been a hunter, while Franklyn seems to have stuck to his parent’s trade. Loti and Franklyn had only one daughter who took up the honorable profession of concibinage, much to her father’s dismay.
The daughter, Bodibara, assuaged his doubts, however, by saying to her parents that her chosen profession was much like that of her father’s, which utterly convinced him.

Bodibara never married for very long, so it was impossible for our investigator to determine
who the father of the prospect’s mother, Rea, was. What she did find out, is that Rea has brother named Trayvond who apparently left Sentinel and joined the Mages Guild in Cheydinhal.
Rea is a seamstress and married an Imperial sailor called Claudius Xiphosurus. It seems that the wedding date wasn’t entirely inspired by Morrwha, as Cesarion seems to have been born six months into the marriage.


Education:

Prospect received his primary education at Ubu Preparatory School.* In Sentinel. Subjects: panegrystics, ancient Yoku, arithmetic, dialectics, echelothurgistics, haruspectrometry, history, gymnastics. A former teacher, miss Juno Mayzond, remarked to our investigator that Cesarion Xiphosurus was an excellent gymnast, but barely managed to interpret the meaning of bird flight. On the whole, he seems to have been an average student.
After primary school Cesarion Xiphosurus seems to have been enrolled in at a training school for warriors, but dropped out after thirteen months.


Vocation:

After Cesarion abandoned his education, Claudius Xiphosurus seems to have thrown his son out of the family home. It seems Cesarion went to work at a pottery workshop in Rihad, but got fired soon after. He seems to have taken up burglary after meeting members of the Durai Ungai in a local tavern.
After prospect was arrested for breaking and entering of a Roseguard home, he seems to have taken up antiques dealing in Taneth. **
When the Organization got wind of his exploits in smuggling Dwemer artifacts from Hew’s Bane, the Headship made the decision to contact him.


Ancillary activities:

Prospect has been seen around the concubines of Rihad on several occasions. It would seem that the usual caveat does not apply here, since it is unlikely that prospect could become a target of blackmail. As a former consort of the Dura Ungai, Cesarion Xiphosurus would not have any kind of reputation to protect.
It would seem that the skill prospect acquired in repairing old trinkets for his friends, would suggest he will take up working with enchanted weapons fairly quickly.


Motivation:

It seems that Cesarion wants to study what he calls “Nudrihiâ€Â￾ in the East. He wants to follow the example of his uncle Trayvond who resides at the Mages Guild in Cheydinhal. Prospect’s more heterodox activities suggest he would be better suited for the Organization rather than for the Mages Guild, which he knows from his time in Rihad.


Notes:

* Closed after a scandal in 417.

** Tried for Breaking and Entering by the Court of the Utei in 410.

SoIaF is suck. Why don't you just read a book about the War of the Roses instead. I plan to read at least one SoIaF book, just to see what the fuss is all about. (they're not in the shops here).

It is the only one? :o I think I will wait for that recommendation thingy. I didn't highlight the changes (because I made many and it would take longer to highlight them than it took me to correct them). You should read my version. I changed a few things. for instance, why do you call a gang of ban...

Journal of the Robber-Knight Morndas, I think... Been away from civilization long enough that I don’t remember what day it is... this has happened to us too many times before. Fortunately, this cave seems to have been cleared out before we arrived here. The only opposition we met was a rat. ...

It still has a few minor spelling issues -which may or may not be important- and I think it's 'Morndas' not 'Mondas'.

I'll post a version with my recommendations shortly.

A mabrigash is an Ashlander witch-warrior, a renegade wise woman who has forsaken the established rules of behavior for an Ashlander woman to become a master of dark magic and the weapons of war.

Welcome to TR, hugon!

I love the buildings (and not just because I'm Dutch myself).

How does claiming work...do you outline the idea and then claim? Do you write the entire desin first? I've got my sights on q2-6-Mis.

Pick anything you want. You could even pick one piece interiors, because you´ve shown us you can use gridsnap already. If you want to practive for when you get promoted, you could make us something Redoran. For extra kudos download the latest TR_Data and show us you can use that. It´s full off...

Welcome to TR, witcher93,

If you make a Morrowind interior I'll be happy to review it for you.

I will look at your file one last time. For reasons discussed [url=http://tamriel-rebuilt.org/old_forum/viewtopic.php?t=16687]in this sticky[/url] I'd like you to make a new interior (if that's what you want to be promoted for), no NPCs or creatures. P.S.: I don't do promotions, just reviews, so it'...

What exactly is required from quest Designers?
Which criteria does a good quest design have to fulfil?

If the actual quest is made my by the quest department, where does the quest design stop? Should there be NPCs circumscribed? etc. etc.

interior review: 1). Northmarker set in the correct direction. (It is good practice to put the Northmarker at (0,0,0) before you put everything else in the interior). I would move it to (0,0,0) and put the interior next to it. Doormarker bleeds through floor and door. 2). Lighting is set correctly. ...

interior review ( not the exterior or the NPC or the PGRD) I've checked the changes you made in the interior. You fixed most of what I mentioned correctly. I'm not mentioning what you corrected, as the review would become too long. Floating: misc_de_bowl_white_01 and misc_uni_pillow_01 still float s...
