Bring order into a world of chaos and truly transform Skyrim as you set out to save it. Claim bandit strongholds for your chosen faction to prevent the bandits from coming back and make Skyrim a safer place.

For my off-the-cuff idea, claiming Valtheim's abilities is surprisingly well-received. People like their actions to have a lasting, positive impact on the world, and they also like not to be blackmailed by bandits who don't realize their inferiority. It's nice to know that these bandits aren't a problem for you or anyone else, and you only have to deal with them once instead of having to find new houseguests every two weeks.

I've done various types of mods since then, as my interests basically change randomly, but if people were talking about one of my mods, the idea of ​​a feature to declare locations would often be thrown around in more and more parts of Skyrim. Only recently have I been able to build a system that scales easily from one area to another, allowing you to claim more and more areas as your character defeats the enemies there, thus stabilizing one Skyrim at a time.

Lawbringer is a mod that allows you to claim multiple bandit outposts for the faction you support, and the framework can be expanded to let you claim any location for any faction you like. Once you clear the supported area, you'll be able to find nearby banners and use them to capture the fortress. After that, waiting or leaving the fortress will clear it and cause it to be taken over by the faction you requested protection from. Lawbringer supports Radiant Exclusions by default, so as long as you have the Radiant Exclusions plugin, there's no chance it will let you clear a boss that no longer exists.

Currently, five regions have added support for Guards, Imperial Soldiers, or Stormcloaks. These are:

The ruins of Bthalft

Forsus Watchtower

nirheim

pine bridge

Rift Valley Watchtower
