East Wing Furnishings E8. North Wing Furnishings E9. West Wing Furnishings ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Adventuring, or in a town, a courier will find you. He will give you two letters: A ~ WANTED, A GOOD HOME This letter will give you the opportunity to adopt two children. Go to see Constance Michel at the Honor Hall Orphanage In Riften and she will explain that you need to have a suitable home, one with a room for children. If you already own a home, just go see the Jarl's Steward for that particular home to add the room. The home in Solitude is a good choice because you do not give up another room for it and everyone in the family seems to like it there. An odd thing happened when I sent my first child there. My wife, who I had asked to join the Blades with me, became AOL when I let the Dragon live, but re-appeared in my home in Solitude along with the first child. I'm curious if this happens to anyone else who has misplaced their spouse! Anyway, once you have met the requirement, you can either return to Honor Hall Orphanage and adopt one or two kids, or you can look around the towns and villages for others. Just speak to them to get their background stories. If they're available for adoption, that option will be available. I particularly like the poor little flower girl in Windhelm, myself. I wanted to adopt the kid hires you to off the head of the Orphanage but he isn't adoptable, apparently. You can play games with your kids, buy or make them gifts, and give them allowances. One of the kids will eventually ask for a pet. So far, we've adopted a rabbit, and after a wolf ate the rabbit (I was living at Lake View Manor at the time), a skeever. Personally, I prefer dogs! And you can have a dog, if you like. Without a companion, go in search of a stray, ask it to join you, then bring it back to the home you want it in and ask it to wait there for you. Go to adventuring until you get a notice that the dog got tired of waiting. Generally, he stays in the house, even if the house is full of people. Achievement: PROUD PARENT (adopt a child) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ B ~ A LETTER FROM THE STEWARD OF FALKREATH Who the Jarls and Stewards are depend on if you're just starting or you've already finished Skyrim. But I believe the Housecarls stay the same. B1. LAKEVIEW MANOR ~ Falkreath Hold You need to be the Thane of Falkreath to buy the property to build Lakeview Manor, so speak to the Jarl first. Even if you are already a Thane, he'll make you one again. If you're not one, you need to do the quests necessary for it. Anotherwards, take quests from the Jarl, the Jarl's Steward and the locals. Once you're a Thane, you'll get a Housecarl, Rayya. Have her be your companion. Don't worry, it's just temporary, you can go back to your favorite companion afterwards. Speak to the Steward to buy the land for 5,000 gold. Achievement: LAND OWNER (buy a plot of land) Lakeview Manor is N/E of Falkreath and a short walk North of Pinewatch. There you find a starter pile of 20 logs, a wood chopping block, a drafting table, a carpenter's bench, an anvil and a chest. There are three iron ore veins to be found in the area. Two are in the rocks, behind and to the right of, the carpenter's bench. The third is N/E of the basic house. A corundum ore vein is S/W of the house. You also have a clay deposit and a stone quarry nearby. Unlike ore, clay and stone can be mined indefinitely. You can store these and all other supplies that you find, purchase and/or create, in the chest. The chest has a few meager supplies to get you started, but to actually build anything, you need all necessary building supplies, except for the sawn logs, in your inventory. B2. WINDSTAD MANOR ~ Hjaalmarch Hold You need to be the Thane of Morthal to buy the property to build Windstad Manor. Once you're the Thane. you'll get your Housecarl, Valdimar. As before, have your Housecarl join you as a temporary companion. Speak with the Jarl's Steward, usually in one of the side rooms, to buy land for 5,000 gold. Windstad Manor is N/E of Morthal, halfway between Solitude and Dawn Star. As before, you have a starter pile of 20 logs, a wood chopping block, a drafting table, a carpenter's bench, an anvil, a chest, a clay deposit and a stone quarry. An iron ore vein is just South of the basic house. B3. HELJARCHEN HALL ~ The Pale You need to be the Thane of Dawnstar to buy the property to build Heljarchen Hall. Once you're the Thane, immediately grab Gregor, your Housecarl, as he tends to wander off and can be a bit of a pain to find. Do not speak to the steward this time. The Jarl will sell you the property directly, for 5000 gold. If you can't find your housecarl, Gregor, just go to the property without him and he'll eventually show up there while you're building. Achievement: LANDBARON (buy 3 plots of land) Heljarchen Hall is S/W of Dawnstar, S/E of Morthal and halfway between Dawnstar and Whiterun. As before, you have a starter pile of 20 logs, a wood chopping block, a drafting table, a carpenter's bench, an anvil, a chest, a clay deposit and a stone quarry. A corundum ore vein is East of the back left side of the basic house. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ C ~ THE BEGINNERS GUILD TO HOMESTEADING The book is located on the carpenter's bench. It tells you that you can build your house just a little at a time, as you pick up materials here and there, but doing so is riddled with very annoying glitches. Each time you go back, instead of it being where you left off,it goes back to zero. At first, if you exit the bench, then return, it will reset for you, but not always. The longer it has been since you began building the house, the less likely it'll reset for you. Creating an item that you have not yet made, will sometimes reset it, so if you absolutely must stop before finishing a project, write down what you still need to build. This problem plagues both the X-box 360 and the PS3 systems. I had to completely redo my last house to be able to finish it. Luckily I had a save to go back to. The worst is the Shrine in the cellar. Don't even think about starting it unless you have everything to finish the job, that includes finishing the quests for the Amulets of Mara and Talos, if you started them. Completely finishing one project at a time avoids most of the glitches. A project would be building: the Basic Small House all of the Outside Structures the Main Hall remodeling the basic house into an entryway an east wing a north wing a west wing a cellar furnishing a room I tried the option to have my Steward do the furnishings, twice. Both times, my steward took my money, but nothing was ever done so I ended up doing it myself, poorer for the attempt. How much of any one material you will need depends on what you decide to build. Me, I built everything. To build everything, build each house with different East, North and West wings. C1. Building Materials, the Anvil Before you can do anything, you need to stock up on iron and corundum ingots to make lots of nails, locks, hinges and iron fittings on the Anvil, under building materials: 2 Hinges require 1 iron ingot Iron Fittings require 1 iron ingot 1 Lock requires 1 iron ingot and 1 corundum ingot 10 Nails require 1 iron ingot C2. Other Building Materials Amulets can be bought from Clothiers, Jewelers or general Merchants under Apparel. They can also be found adventuring or thieving. If you want a complete altar in each house you will need three each of the following nine Amulets: Amulet of Akatosh Amulet of Arkay Amulet of Dibella Amulet of Julianos Amulet of Kynareth Amulet of Mara Amulet of Stendaar Amulet of Talos Amulet of Zenithar Soul Gems can be purchsed from merchants, found adventuring, thieving or can be found lying about and for sale at the College of Winterhold: Grand Soul Petty Soul Gem Animal based materials can be found by hunting,adventuring, thieving or purchasing them from a General Merchant, Black Smith or Hunter. Ingredients can be bought from Alchemists. Dragon Bones and Scales, however, can only be obtained by killing dragons. You will need the following Animal based Materials: Bear Claws Bear Pelt Bone Meal Cave Bear Pelt Charred Skeever Hide Chaurus Chitin Cow Hide Deer Hide Dragon Bone Dragon Scale Falmer Ears Frostbite Venom Goat Hide Goat Horns Hagraven Claws Hagraven Feathers Horker Tusks Ice Wolf Pelt Large Antlers Leather Strip Mudcrab Chitin Sabre Cat Pelt Sabre Cat Tooth Skeever Tail Skull Slaughterfish Scales Small Antlers Snow Bear Pelt Snowy Sabre Cat Pelt Troll Fat Troll Skull Wolf Pelt Ores can be mined, or bought from a Black Smith, then smelted to make ingots. If you're having trouble finding a smelter, go to Whiterun. There is one to your right as you enter the city. Ores and Ingots can also be found Adventuring/thieving. Clay and Quarried Stone can only be found in random deposits, but luckily, there are conveniently located deposits on each of your properties. Gemstones are a by-product of mining but they can also be purchased or found. Clay Corundum Ingots smelt 2 corundum ore Ebony Ingot smelt 2 ebony ore Flawless Amethyst Flawless Sapphire Gold Ingot smelt 2 gold ore Iron Ingot smelt 1 iron ore Orichalcum smelt 2 orichalcum ore Quarried Stone Quicksilver Ingot smelt 2 quicksilver ore Refined Malachite smelt 2 malachite ore Refined Moonstone smelt 2 moonstone ore Silver Ingot smelt 2 silver ore Steel Ingot smelt 2 iron ore Misc. items that can only be found by adventuring: Ancient Nord Arrows Ancient Nord Bow Ancient Nord Sword Dwemer Scrap Metal Falmer Sword Misc Items bought from General Merchants or found adventuring: Glass Straw ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ D ~ HOW TO BUILD your DREAM HOUSE Go to the Drafting Table and clic on what you would like to build. You must build the Basic House First. Now, exit the Drafting Table and go to the Carptenter's Bench and click on: D1. THE BASIC HOUSE Click on: Foundation - 1 log and 10 quarried stone Wall Framing - 6 logs and 10 nails Walls - 2 logs, 8 nails, 4 clay Floor - 4 quarried stone Roof Framing - 6 logs Roof - 10 nails, 1 log Door - 1 iron fitting, 1 log, 1 lock, 2 hinges, 2 nails D2. THE Outside Structures Click on: Animal Pen - requires 1 log The Animal Pen allows you to buy one cow and three chickens from your House Apiary (exclusive to LakeView Manor) - requires 2 logs, 1 nails and 2 straw Armorer Workbench - requires 2 quarried stone, 1 iron ingot and 1 log Garden - requires 1 log The Garden allows you to plant 11 plants. No, you can't use plants from a DLC. I suggest you pick the plants you use most in your alchemy. Alchemy needs change as the game progresses, but no worries, you can change the plants whenever you like. Grindstone - requires 1 quarried stone, 1 log and 1 iron fitting Smelter - requires 2 iron fittings, 5 iron ingots, 6 clay and 4 quarried stone The smelter will save you trips to Whiterun as you'll be doing a lot of smelting. Stable - requires 3 logs and 5 nails The Stable allows you to buy a horse from your Steward The Fish Hatchery (exclusive to Windstad Manor) - requires 3 logs 3 quarried stone and 4 nails The Hatchery comes with a couple of Horkers and the option to donate one of each fish or fish byproduct to stock your respawning fishery: Abecean Longfin Clam Meat to acquire Clams Cyrodilic Spadetail Histcarp River Betty Salmon Roe, found in the kitchen, to acquire Salmon Silverside Perch Slaughterfish eggs The Mill (exclusive to Heljarchen Hall) - 2 logs, 2 quarried stone and 2 iron fittings The Mill allows you to make flour from wheat which allows you to bake in the oven. This makes Heljarchen Hall a good place to build the Kitchen, which not only gives you a new ingredient, Salmon roe but new baked goods. Once the Basic House and the Outside Structures are complete, ask your Housecarl to be your House Steward instead. You can now make purchases from him/her of the following: A Carrage with a driver 500 gold A Bard 1,500 gold A Horse 1,000 gold A Cow 200 gold 3 Chickens 25 gold each Should one of your animals die, they become available to buy again from your Steward. You may now also buy lumber from him/her, saving you trips to a mill. You may also buy quarried stone and clay, but seriously, how lazy can you get, it's just outside, for free! D3. The Main Hall Click on: Door - 1 iron fitting, 1 log, 1 lock, 2 hinges and 2 nails Wall Foundation - 4 logs and 30 quarried stone Floor - 6 quarried stone Wall Framing - 16 logs and 20 nails First Level Walls - 4 logs, 16 nails and 8 clay Floor Supports - 6 logs and 10 nails Roof Framing - 10 logs Second Level Walls - 12 nails, 8 nails and 4 logs Roof - 25 nails and 2 logs Cellar - 8 logs and 50 quarried stone D4. Remodeling the Basic House Once the Main Hall is built, you may return to the Drafting Table and re-model the basic house into an entryway at no cost. If you have already furnished the basic house, no worries, you won't lose anything. The furniture just gets redistributed between the main hall and the entryway. If you need ideas, I built my first house with the Library, the Trophy Room and the Enchanter's Tower. I built my second house with The Armory, the Alchemy Lab and the Greenhouse (Windstead Manor, my favorite, has the Fish Hatchery which is good for the Alchemy Lab, as is the Greenhouse). I built my third house with the Kitchen, Storage and the Bedroom with the idea that it'd be a family home (HELJARCHEN HALL is a good place for the kitchen since it has the mill to make flour) You can have an Alchemy Table and Arcane Enchanter in each house even if you don't build the Alchemy Lab or Enchanter's Towers and you can still cook in each house without a kitchen. The Kitchen just offers new items to bake with respawnable butter and milk and one new ingredient, Salmon Roe. Reguardless of how you set them up, I suggest you have one of each wing addition as each has something different to offer in the way of respawnable food and ingredients. D5.

MAJOR GLITCHES AHEAD! before you start the Shrine, be sure that you have every item needed for the Shrines. None should be stuck in your inventory because of unfinished quests. There are three quest amulets that I can recall: The Amulet of Mara (If this amulet is stuck in your inventory as a quest item, it's because you haven't finished one of two quests. The one for Dinya Balu or the one for Maramal, both from the temple of Mara in Riften . Dinya, who can be found in the temple, is the one who gave you the amulet so that you might help lovers. You must wear the amulet during these quests. Maramal, can be found at either the temple or in the Bee and Barb in Riften. His quest is for you to find a spouse. To find a suitable spouse, wear the amulet and speak with people you're interested in. If they're available, an option to marry will be in the dialogue. You can even marry someone from Solstheim if you have the DLC Dragonborn. I married a girl from Skall Village. Avoid marrying quest people or merchants as they won't be replaced. When you find someone agreeable, SAVE (it's terribly important to save here) and return immediately to Maramal in Riften. Pay very close attention to the instructions about the marriage ceremony or you can miss your own wedding and ruin the quest. Once married, the amulet of Mara is no longer a quest item. The Amulet of Talos (if this is an unfinished quest item, don't despair, it's quite fixable even if you have already finished the game, like I did. Go to Solitude and look for Svari. She's one of the three kids running around playing games. You may have to play with the kids first, but I'm not sure. If so, I believe it's the boy who asks you to play tag, or was it hide n seek. Anyway, afterwards, offer to speak with her mother, Greta. Activate the quest and your local map will show you where she is. Sympathyze with her. If you previously called her brother a traitor, as I did, just change your answer, then say that Svari asked you to speak with her and she'll ask you to get the Amulet of Talos off her brother's body, which you obviously already did or you wouldn't be stuck with the amulet. However,if Greta is dead, you're outta luck) The Amulet of ???? (Sorry, I don't remember which one it was but I do remember where it goes. to Torbjorn Shatter-Shield in Windhelm.
