» Sat Jun 19, 2010 4:28 am - Velothi - the oldest style of building, this architecture type was either brought over from Summerset Isles or influenced by the Dwarven structures in Vvardenfell. It is named after Saint Velothi, the individual who led the Chimer across Tamriel to their new home of Morrowind, and is considered to be the height of Chimer architecture.
- Redoran - the second generation of Chimer construction, the Redoran style is an attempt to blend more completely with the landscape of Morrowind. It combines the stone and techniques of Velothi with natural elements such as giant insect shells and organic curves.
- Telvanni - the xenophobic Telvanni deemed themselves completely apart from the rest of Tamriel, and this is reflected in their more extreme architecture as well. Telvanni architecture consists of naturally-grown (and magically-assisted) tree and root growth, with the buildings themselves carved out from within the natural structures.
- Hlaalu - the diametric opposite of the Telvanni, the Hlaalu embrace the outside world. Their architecture, therefore, is a combination of the traditional Dunmer style (Velothi) and Imperial construction, resulting in buildings that are shaped and outlined much like human structures but still maintain the stone appearance and accents of Velothi.
- Ashlander - the nomadic tribes of Vvardenfell distanced themselves from the civilized towns and instead formed loose-knit communities. These tribes live off the land and their structures are typically made of heavy animal skins and tent-like buildings.
Anyway, lore dictates that Mephala and Boethiah are the daedric lords who taught the Chimer how to live and prosper in their new land. My mod is primarily concerned with the realm of Mephala and the race that lives there, so for their architecture style I am wanting to combine Velothi with a slight nod to Daedric influences.
Any assistance in obtaining these resources is appreciated. Thanks!
