Telvanni Districts

Post by Bohlox »

I remember reading somewhere that there are three telvanni districts. one on vvardenfell, another on some islands and then the main district on the mainland. With an archmagister and council for each. Is this official lore or did someone make it up? Personally, I think that sounds really cool.

Anyways, what I'm asking is if this is acutal lore, then will we see this mysterious third district in TR?

Plugin "Rise of House Telvanni":

Inner Sea Islands
You won't find them on any map. They are a sporadic collection of little Telvanni and Indoril holdings that are sprinkled around the Inner Sea. Wonderful place to research they are, full of little nooks and crannies that divulge the most amusing mysteries. One Island is composed entirely of crab shells.

I was the Archmagister of the Inner Sea Islands. Did you know that there are Archmagisters all over the place? I say that; I really mean there are three: one for Vvardenfell, that's you. One for the Inner Sea, currently a woman named Drevyah who spent the earlier part of her life trying to usurp power from me. And there is one for Mainland Telvanni District. I forget his name. Some old croaker. You are all subservient to the Grandmagister of Port Telvannis, though no one really cares about that

I haven't played RoHT, but its one of the ones I consider to be essential, others are TR of course, UL and BuUL, as soon as I get them all running then I'll be able to get the full telvanni experience, but not until I get them all running. There's others but I can live without the those. RoHT has been giving me trouble but I'll figure it out. But anyways, does anybody in the other districts mention the inner sea district? Like the mainland council being rude (sending assassins, asset denial and other traditional telvanni political rudeness) to you because they see you as a threat, because you hold the position of archmagister in two districts. Being an Archmagister would be a big deal I think, well, not really I guess, but personal holdings and assets of telvanni mage lords are. And if your archmagister of a district or even on the council, then you'd have to have holdings and assets in the area otherwise there would be no point in allowing yourself to be represented in that districts council.

The problem with this though is that while RoHT is an excellent and very well done mod, it conflicts with a lot of lore. I'm not even sure there is an inner island district of Telvanni, and the person who is in charge of House Telvanni is just another Archmagister, there is no Grandmagister title.

Basically, while it is an outstanding mod, we will not be basing our mod off of that one, so anything you read about RoHT lore wise, I'd suggest to take with a grain of salt, because we already have our plans for House Telvanni, and a lot of it will not match up with RoHT.
