About the Game

"Frostwater VIllage” is a lore-friendly mod that adds the titular Frostwater Village to the game. This settlement of outcasts from Windhelm and refugees from across Tamriel calls upon the Dragonborn for help. Through assisting the denizens of Frostwater Village, players will build up the settlement while obtaining unique loot along the way. With a focus on narrative and puzzle solving, this mod aims to expand the world of Skyrim and provide a short but fun questline for players.
