Introduction
Tales of Skyrim is a massive mod for Minecraft that brings many of the elements of Skyrim into the Minecraft world. The goal of ToS is not to turn Minecraft into an RPG, but rather to take the content, gameplay elements, and overall feel of Skyrim and introduce them to Minecraft in a way that works with the Minecraft style of play.
Tales of Skyrim is currently in development.
What This Mod Does:
- Adds hundreds of new blocks, items, and mobs inspired by those found in Skyrim
- Transforms the world generation to more closely match the land of Skyrim, including new types of biomes, plants, and animals
- Adds challenging new dungeons and ruins to explore that generate randomly in the world
- Adds a brand-new magic and shout system to expand how you play
- Adds many new types of weapons, tools, and armor based on those found in Skyrim, all with unique stats
- Adds randomly generated towns and cities based on those found in Skyrim
What This Mod Does NOT Do:
- Add static, pre-built content that clashes with the infinite random generation of MC, like quests and named NPCs.
- Rip off Skyrim assets, like textures and sounds - all content created for this mod is original! Yes, that includes the code.
Planned Features
Tales of Skyrim adds many new ores to the world. These ores can be smelted into ingots and crafted into brand new sets of weapons, tools, and armor.

Tales of Skyrim features a wide variety of structures that generate randomly in the world. Think strongholds and jungle temples, but much more interesting.
Dungeons:
Dungeons are sprawling underground structures filled with monsters, traps, and treasure. They spawn randomly in the world with an entrance on the surface, so you won't have to dig up a continent to find them.
Two types of dungeons can be found: Nordic and Dwemer. Each has unique blocks, treasure, mobs, traps, and room architecture.
Ruins:
Ruins spawn randomly on the surface and range from standing stones to altars to collapsed towers. Some have treasure, some have secrets, and some have traps or monsters waiting to ambush you.
(-Screenshots coming soon-)
Tales of Skyrim adds many new types of ores for you to mine.
Left to right: Corundum ore/steel block, silver ore/silver block, moonstone ore/moonstone block, orichalcum ore/orichalcum block, malachite ore/malachite block, ebony ore/ebony block, and dwarven metal block. (Dwarven metal does not generate as ores, but you can get Dwarven ingots by smelting scrap found in Dwemer dungeons).
Tales of Skyrim adds four new types of gems: Amethyst, Garnet, Ruby, and Sapphire.

Tales of Skyrim replaces the default MC villages with new towns and cities. Town architecture is based on the various cities found in skyrim, and changes based on the biome where the town spawns. Large towns will be spawned with a wall and a palace, transforming them into cities.
These new towns are populated with the various types of humanoid races that can be found in Skyrim. There are three types of townsfolk - merchants, guards, and jarls. Merchants will buy and sell goods for Septims (which replace emeralds as the common currency), guards will protect the town from mobs (and from you, if you attack the townsfolk), and Jarls will offer bounties for bringing the heads of dangerous creatures.

Types of merchants:
- Alchemist > Buys and sells potion ingredients and potions
- Blacksmith > Buys and sells armor, weapons, and ingots
- Mage > Buys and sells spell books, staffs, mage robes, and soul gems
- General Merchant > Buys and sells books, gems, building plans, and many miscellaneous items
- Hunter > Buys and sells various types of meat
- Farmer > Buys and sells crops, seeds, and food
New merchant mechanics:
- NO trade cooldown! Merchants will only refuse to trade with you if you want to sell something and they have run out of Septims, or if they have run out of stock of the item you want.
- If a merchant runs out of stock of a particular item, they will restock after 2-3 minecraft days.
- Trading multiple times with the same merchant will unlock new types of rare trades.

Tales of Skyrim adds spells that you can cast from an empty hand. Spells can be learned by reading spell tomes that you find in chests or purchase from town merchants. All spells drain magicka when cast - magicka will regenerate very slowly over time if your hunger bar is full, or can be restored instantly by drinking potions of Restore Magicka[/p]

Help Wanted!
Got a talent for sound creation or mixing? Want to help bring this mod to life? Then I need your help!
I have no skill with handling or creating sounds, so at the moment all traps and mobs are re-using vanilla sounds. I'd really like to add custom sounds to this mod, so if you have the talent, drop a comment and let me know.
