Experience a new world, full of dangers! From snowy mountain-tops to dark forests! Meet unique and interesting characters in this new world.
Ulfgard Chronicles is a new mod that will feature the realm of Ulfgard. The realm consists of the three provinces, Snjarland, Drengrey and Ulreth.


The Provinces (http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd272/zaldir/VikingWorld.jpg?t=1269989497)
Drengrey
A land filled with dark forests! Here you'll have to watch your back, as the land is full of bandits and evil doers!
Inside these forests are plenty of villages and camps, all fighting to survive.

Snjarland
A cold, snowy province. Knowing how to make a fireplace is the key to survival in this harsh province.
This land is ruled by the Chieftain Ragnar.
Its mountain-range, goes from the far east to the west, and divides the land from Ulreth and Drengrey.

Ulreth
The province where the king of Ulfgard lives. A brutal king, who cares only for himself and the nobles, and not for the people.
That is why the people here have gone against the king in a rebellion! Join them or join the king in this struggle.
Here, green plains stretch as far as the eye can see, and light forests filled with peaceful animals is found in the middle of the land.
To the south, it borders to Snjarland, and its snowy mountain range is a nice view for the inhabitants of Ulreth. To the west lies dark Drengrey, where no one dares travel. Those few who dares, never returns!



The Factions
Rebels
The rebels fights the king of Ulreth, and fights for the people! By joining them, you will not be getting heaps of gold, but just the thought that your helping the people is enough, eh?

Ulrethian Army
The army fights for the king, and against the uprising rebellion in Ulreth. You want gold and riches? Then this is the perfect faction for you!

Subfactions
Vikings
The Vikings live their own lives in the cold and almost inhabitable land of Snjarland. On the southern shores, they are being invaded by the Vanirs, and it's your choice if you want to help them or not, and maybe even work against them... They also play a part in the main quest in Ulreth.

Bandits
The bandits robs travelers and merchants in the dark forests of Drengrey. No road is safe in this land because of these bandits. They are well organized, and lead by one leader, but still they seem like uncivilized ravages! Like the Vikings, they do play a part in the conflict of Ulreth.

We're done with the heightmap now, and partially the planning. Soon we're ready to start modding... More members of the team is always useful! We'll start posting screenshots when progress is made!

Ooh, is this Snowy land perchance Skyrim? Would be an excellent endeavor, even if the rest isn't exactly lore correct, putting nords as vikings in the Skyrim environment would be awesome and something I've been waiting for a long time. I'm a Hammerfall driven modeler, so I might be able to help if I have time sometime. Just saying...you'd have the instant permission to use a LOT of Viking stuff already available.(Well probably not required since it's mostly modders resource but still more support) :)

I see, but why not Skyrim, there's a perfect niche to fill there with a Viking Society and a rugged cold land. I can understand not wanting too much expectations, too much of a challenge. But these kind of projects get a lot modding support if they are TES Lore backed. I will help if I can. This more of a tribute to the History of Vikings, isn't it? That's noble too. :dance: I live in Estonia, my parents are finns, so I'm kind of a fan :hubbahubba:

Yeah I suppose, I'm adept at Scripting, Modeling, finding resources, texturing or whatever. I've been a part of and working with the Craftybits team a while now, and I'm almost singlehandedly working on a quite elaborate Necromancy Addon for craftybits (for which I'm looking help for too, btw), so I'm constantly busy, but I can find time for anything you might need. I also like lorefriendly things, but that's not an issue here :D How big is your island going to be?

It is not in Skyrim for two reasons:

1. We didn't want lore to be a hinder.
2. WE want Vikings, not nords :)

Welcome to the team btw! :D

We're done with some interiors, and heightmapping.

But this will go extremely slow, if we have no more than 1 exterior Designer. (+ me, who do whatever is needed :P )

So, if anyone wants to give it a try, please post an application on our forum. (It's not a job, and you work as much as you want) :)
