#THE SHIVERING ISLES MAP HOW TO#
You will need to figure out how to defeat the Gatekeeper of Shivering Isles to obtain the two keys to the Gates of Madness. Without disclosing too much of the storyline, I will say that you won't simply teleport to Shivering Isles you will first be challenged to prove your worthiness for the task of becoming the mad king's champion. Upon accepting the challenge, you will be rewarded with what I consider to be the best visual effect in the expansion, your transportation to the Shivering Isle. Once in the portal room you will have a conversation with the High consul of Shivering Isles, Haskell, who will lay down the storyline and give you an opportunity to accept or decline the challenge. (Note: Please read below about a possible bug which is related to starting the Shivering Isles adventure.) If you decline, you can always travel by land to the Island in Niben Bay when you are ready. If you choose to take on the new quest, you will be immediately teleported into a room which becomes the entry point into the new Shivering Isles content. As is the case with all new quests, the interface allows you to choose to switch to the new quest or to continue on your present path. After 24 hours of game time in Oblivion, you will be notified of a mysterious door appearing on an island in Niben Bay. By design, Elder Scrolls IV – Shivering Isles is integrated into Oblivion and feels like it was always there. You don't experience Elder Scrolls IV – Shivering Isles simply by installing the software and running the game. The game package includes a single DVD and a fold-out map of the Shivering Isles.
