<a href="/wiki/Video_game" title="Video game">video game</a> <i><a href="/wiki/The_Elder_Scrolls_III:_Morrowind" title="The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind">The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind</a></i>, developed by <a href="/wiki/Bethesda_Game_Studios" title="Bethesda Game Studios">Bethesda Game Studios</a> and released for <a href="/wiki/Microsoft_Windows" title="Microsoft Windows">Windows</a> in 2003. The expansion was later released as part of the <i>Morrowind: Game of the Year Edition</i> for the <a href="/wiki/Xbox_(console)" title="Xbox (console)">Xbox</a> in 2004. The expansion adds a landmass to the game, Solstheim, a setting modelled on <a href="/wiki/Norse_mythology" title="Norse mythology">Norse mythology</a>. The primary questline of <i>Bloodmoon</i> involves the investigation of the Bloodmoon Prophecy that foretells the return of the demigod Hircine. A secondary features a new faction, the East Empire Company, which tasks the player to establish a mining colony. <i>Bloodmoon</i> also provides the player with the ability to become a werewolf, a feature closely embedded in the main storyline and quests. The expansion features more detailed environments, including weather shaders such as snowfall and blizzards. </p><p><i>Bloodmoon</i> was developed over six months with a stated objective of making a more open-ended expansion focused on action and exploration, in contrast to the closed design of the previous expansion, <i><a href="/wiki/The_Elder_Scrolls_III:_Tribunal" title="The Elder Scrolls III: Tribunal">The Elder Scrolls III: Tribunal</a></i>. Design of the game's questlines reflected a more open-ended ethos, with the use of branching questlines reflecting player choices. Upon release, <i>Bloodmoon</i> received positive reviews from critics, with praise directed to the expansion's highly distinctive visual design and landscape and the design of its branching questlines, particularly the East Empire Company questline, with criticism directed towards the limitations of gameplay when playing as a werewolf and various performance issues and bugs.

The island is recently colonized by the Empire, who administer it from Fort Frostmoth. However, most of Solstheim is uninhabited wilderness, occupied by outlying villages of indigenous Nord tribes, including the Skaal who occupy a major village and the mead hall of Thirsk.<sup id="cite_ref-RPG_3-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-RPG-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> On the south end of the island is Raven Rock, the site of a prospective ebony mining colony being developed by the East Empire Company. <i><a href="/wiki/The_Elder_Scrolls_V:_Skyrim_%E2%80%93_Dragonborn" title="The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim – Dragonborn">Dragonborn</a></i>, an expansion to <i><a href="/wiki/The_Elder_Scrolls_V:_Skyrim" title="The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim">The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim</a></i> also takes place on the island of Solstheim, set after the events of <i>Bloodmoon</i>.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Story">Story</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Elder_Scrolls_III:_Bloodmoon&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Story"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><i>Bloodmoon</i> introduces two major questlines: a main quest and a factional quest for the East Empire Company.<sup id="cite_ref-RPG_3-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-RPG-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The player initiates the main quest by interacting with Falx Carius, the Captain of Fort Frostmoth, completing small tasks to improve the morale of the fort. Upon completion, the player returns to fort to discover it has been attacked and Carius is missing. The player travels north to the land of the Skaal and completes a series of rituals and tests to gain the trust of the leader, Tharsten Heart-Fang. The player investigates signs of what the Skaal describe as the Bloodmoon Prophecy, in which the appearance of disturbances and werewolves in Solstheim signal the return of the Daedric Prince Hircine in each Age. The player is infected with the werewolf disease, Sanies Lupinus, when the Skaal Village becomes attacked by werewolves, and Heart-Fang is discovered missing. At this point, the main quest diverges depending upon whether the player chooses to cure themselves of the disease to assist the Skaal, or to become a werewolf and fight the Skaal on behalf of Hircine. In the end, both threads converge as the Bloodmoon Prophecy becomes true and Hircine abducts the player for the Great Hunt. Reunited with Carius and Heart-Fang, who have also been abducted for the Great Hunt, the player navigates the maze within Mortrag Glacier to find and defeat the aspect of Hircine to put an end to the Great Hunt. </p><p>The East Empire Company questline is a secondary questline in which the player joins the faction and assists in the establishment of a mining colony on the site of Raven Rock. Players initiate the questline by talking to Carnius Magius, the Factor of the expedition, whose unscrupulous plans for the colony often come at odds with his deputy, Falco Galenus. For most of the questline, players can side with Carnius or Falco to undertake tasks to build the colony, including establishing the mine, choosing which type of shops to construct, and resolving problems in the colony including missing shipments, thieves, and disturbances from local natives and monsters. At the end of the questline, the player either aids Carnius to stage an attack on the colony, only to be attacked in turn as Carnius has deemed the player is a liability, or assist Falco in defending the colony against Carnius' fake attack. Both branches end with the player confronting Carinus and defeating him, being rewarded with a promotion as the new Factor of the colony and constructing a player-owned estate in Raven Rock. </p> <div
