ABOUT
Time is against you Seeker, it yawns at your heels.

''You must be wiser than the divided house. Swifter than the shadow of dominion. One wrong step and we are lost. I know the hand that fate will deal, but not how the cards will be played. The only certainty is Blood and Steel, Tears and Fire. And the deep threat long forgotten. Time is against you. You must be Kai'Arwan. Find the truth.. ''

STORY
Over a hundred years have passed since the events of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, and it is now 4E 316.

The land of Hammerfell is in a weakened state after having cut ties with the Empire. Increased hostilities between The Crowns and The Forebears, the leading factions of Hammerfell, has left them open to invasion by the Thalmor starting the Second Great War. In the midst of this chaos the Dwemer, a long lost race, have seemingly returned to Tameriel with monstrous constructs of flesh and steel at their command. Hammerfell must unify if it is to survive these dire threats.

The player starts the game in a dark prison mine. You are befriended by an fellow inmate named Ketch Varkas, who listens to your creation story and gives you the run down on the prison. Ketch tasks you with helping plan a prison riot to mask your escape. During the madness, Ketch betrays you to make his escape leaving you and other fellow conspirators to be captured. You are sentenced to death and taken into the badlands on a sand barge. During the trek to your final destination the convoy is shaken when a colossal Dwemer construct suddenly erupts out of the ground and lays waste the convoy. Your cage is sent flying into a ravine and smashed against the rock. The player dies watching the Colossus disappear into a sand storm. The player awakens in a shadowy realm where they are met by mysterious Wraith who claims they are now banished from death and told to "Find the Path". The player resurrects next to the broken cage, their body healed. Making their way out of the wreckage and navigating the labyrinthine ravine they eventually find a remote village where people take you in to recover. Impressed with your efforts they award you the title of Arwan - a Pathfinder.

The world is now yours to explore at will and the three major story threads of Hammerfell, the truth of your immortality, the outcome of the Second Great War, and the return of the Dwemer are ready to be investigated but the tide of fate will define your life in ways you could never have foreseen.

SETTING
This installment of The Elder Scrolls takes place in the new region of Hammerfell

Hammerfell, also known as Volenfell in Dwemeris, Hegathe in Aldmeris, and Deathland in Nedic, is a vast province in the west of Tamriel, bordered by High Rock to the north, Skyrim to the northeast and Cyrodiil to the east and southeast. It is the homeland of the Redguards. Once a province of the Tamrielic Empire until the Great War, Hammerfell became a sovereign nation in 4E 175 after its rejection of the White-Gold Concordat.

Hammerfell is a massive region, covered by vast mountain ranges, grasslands, and deserts. The desolate Alik'r Desert is one of Hammerfell's most well-known regions, taking up a large fraction of the province.

Hammerfell is especially notable for being the home of the Redguards, a race of men known for being cunning warriors and skilled swordsmen. Though many skirmishes followed upon the invasion of Yokuda, the land remained Redguard territory. Before the Redguards, however, the Dwemer once occupied Hammerfell.

Hammerfell is a completely new kind of landscape to explore in The Elder Scrolls series. A harsh, arid but beautiful land with unique cultures, characters and locations. The 8 major cities are the most well realized in the series and they are complemented with smaller townships, ruins and dungeons dotted through the land with huge swaths of wilderness separating them all.

Hammerfell is divided up into 10 regions with unique but complementary biomes, geography and settlements. The Alik'r Desert, Totambu Forrest, Dragontail Mountains, Western Reach, Colovain Highlands, Helkori Plains, Dak'Fron Badlands, Goldmoor Coast, Hew's Bane and The Abecean Isles.

Alik'r Desert
The Alik'r Desert takes up all of the western region of Hammerfell, and is widely regarded as the most inhospitable region in all of Tamriel. The Alik'r Desert is home to the ruins of countless civilizations that had perished beneath its sands. Its blazing heat, ferocious sandstorms, and lack of water, makes it nearly impossible to survive in the Alik'r Desert. The Desert is populated by monstrous beasts, including giant scorpions and Dunerippers and is inhabited only by the nomadic Dune Dweller Redguards. The Sands of the Alik'r stretch for miles and miles, where one can easily get lost. This presents an interesting gameplay mechanic where depending on the time or the day, the shifting sands could hide or reveal the entrances to particular dungeons.

A large settlement in this region is the ancient city of Hegathe.

The Alik'r Desert has a similar landscape as the Sahara Desert.

Totambu Forrest
Totambu Forrest is a small tropical region on the North of Hammerfell between the Dragontail Mountains and Illiac Bay. The Totambu Forrest is a hot and humid jungle where mountain streams flow from rocky waterfalls to deep cool freshwater pools. A royal family dwell in a city with the same name and the region is policed by the Order of the Scarab. Totambu Forrest shares its largest city and Capital of Hammerfell with the Alik'r Desert; Sentinel - The Jewel of the Desert. Sentinel is bay far the largest city in the game an operates as a port and center of all trade and knowledge.

The landscape of Totambu is similar to Kakadu in Australia and Sentinel is based on Constantinople in its prime

Dragontail Mountains
The Dragontail Mountains are a mountain range in Northern Hammerfell that acts as a border to many other regions including Totambu Forrest and the Alik'r Desert. The mountains are mostly steep and barren places where the people live in a few sheltered valleys or the giant underground cavern cities that the ancient Dewmer carved into the mountainsides. These caverns go deep into the earth and have never been fully explored. Adventures have been known to return with treasures, strange tales or never come back at all. Hidden deep within the mountains is the almost inaccessible Valley of the Blades, where Redguards to the mastery of combat seek to revive ancient secrets.

The landscape of Dragontail reference the Afghan mountains and large caves of Mexico.

Western Reach
The Western Reach is the northern most region that borders both Skyrim and High Rock. This is a wild area with few flat clearings, dotted with trees and rich in valuable ore. Marauding orcs and otherworldly creatures stalk the land while the Reachmen, the natives of this region allied with the Foresworn, fight a constant proxy war with the Nords to the North. The city of Elinhir is secretly home to the "Mages Guild". As magic is not as accepted in Hammerfell as other regions of Tamerial, mages must practice far away from civilization or risk their lives.

Dragonstar is the largest settlement in the region. Once a small mining settlement it has expanded over centuries and evolved into a centre for trading and clashing of cultures.

Western Reach is based of the Andes Mountains of South America.

Colovian Highlands
Colovian Highlands lie in the far east of the country serving as the rugged frontier between Hammerfell and Cyrodill. The Highlands are the desolate western foothills of the Jerall Mountains. North-south travel is quite often impossible due to the sheer sides of the Highlands. The foliage and colour is similar to the Goldmoor region, with light forestation and wispy grasses between islands of bare rock. The Highlands are among the sparser regions in the country, both in terms of vegetation and dungeons.

Few roads run through the area meaning adventures travel by foot or one small goat trails. Far from anywhere however is the secretive Assassins Guild, not to be confused with the Dark Brotherhood as their methodology and beliefs are incompatible.

Colovain Highlands are based on Aragon region of Spain

Helkori Plains

Goldmoor
Goldmoor is a vast land of grassy hills, monolithic tors, and coastal inlets located in the south of Hammerfell

Hammerfell is played in a fixed first erson perspective to add immersion, this view is only changed to a cinematic thrisd person perstived during cinematics and character conversations.
