From the introduction: This game was written out of my personal desire to combine existing house rules with new material to enable myself and my friends to role-play in the Elder Scrolls setting, but at a certain point it grew a lot bigger than anticipated and I realized I just wanted to write a full conversion. I had experience with the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay and Dark Heresy (2nd Edition) systems by Fantasy Flight Games, and decided to use them as a model for this new game.
