One tends not to associate the likes ofSkyrimwith Christmas. Which is surprising, really, given all that snow and burly men with big beards. But with the holiday season upon us, one modder decides to bring yuletide festivities to this cold slice of Tamriel.
Back with another addition to your vanillaSkyrimplaythrough, veteran modderJaySerpahas just released “The Gift of Saturalia – A Quest for the Holidays.” This mod encapsulates anElder Scrollstype of winter celebration with a new quest to hopefully get you in the Christmas spirit.
Featuring fully voiced acting and expansions to some NPC lore, you’ll be given the chance to help others out, as a “bearded old trader” teaches you about the tradition of Saturalia. The quest itself is said to not be too long, but it’s supposed to have “lasting effects, scenes and dialogue after its completion, altering some locations and the life of several NPCs.”
Also, that trailer is pretty current
Here’s everything that “The Gift of Saturalia” boasts:
For those who aren’t aware (I must admit, even as a lifelongElder Scrollsplayer, I was a bit ignorant), Saturalia is a Breton celebration that takes place on the 25th of Evening Star. It’s a time for gift giving, get-togethers, and partying. Sound familiar?
Honestly, if this mod doesn’t get you into the swing of the holiday season, then I don’t know what will. Probably something else, I imagine. Who am I to judge? Not Santa, that’s who.
