Backbone of Daggerfall's Main Quest. edit Location(s): Iliac Bay Prerequisite Quest: Privateer's Hold Reward: None ID: s0000999

Although this is no quest in the traditional way, this questfile is the backbone of the entire Main Quest of Daggerfall.

It is triggered from within _BRISIEN as soon as you exit from Privateer's Hold. The purpose of this questfile is to trigger the start of the Main Quest's various subplots. Following table shows the quests that are started, along with the required conditions.

[edit] Notes

• Although it is intended for the various subplots to start at different character levels, due the game's internal processing, they can all be started as soon as your character reaches level 3. Only one quest flag is used to check your character's level and it is set to "True" as soon as you reach level 3.
  This issue is corrected by a third-party quest patch, found here.
• The quest start-up should end as soon as all required quest were started, but due some logical errors within the questfile, this quest will never end.
  There is also a third-party quest patch, which corrects this problem, along with the character level issue, mentioned in the note above. It can be found here.
• If any of the subplots won't start, or you turned them down in the first place, there is a tool which can re-initiate the corresponding subplot. It can be found here.
