Frostcrag Spire

The Frostcrag Spire, also known as Wizard's Tower (DLC3), is the third official Oblivion plug-in made available by Bethesda. It is available for download for the Xbox 360 and PC. The 17.6MB "Wizard's Tower" download costs 150 points on Xbox Live, or US$1.89 for PC.

From the official website:

"Located high in the Jerall Mountains of Cyrodiil away from prying eyes, this add-on makes the Wizard's Tower, Frostcrag Spire, become available. Packed with numerous useful enhancements, this structure will prove invaluable to magic-oriented characters."

Features:

  • A fully detailed tower for you to explore
  • A breathtaking view of Cyrodiil from the highest point in the land (if you can ever find a time when it's not stormy or overcast up there, which seems independent of the weather below)
  • Simple furnishings including a bed for leveling up
  • An indoor botanical garden with over 130 specimens... including Oblivion-native herbs and a Nirnroot!
  • Summon Atronach Familiars that obey your commands
  • Instant teleportation to every Mages Guild in Cyrodiil, though the teleport to Kvatch Mages Guild is inactive.
  • New Spell and Recharge vendor in the Imperial City
  • Fully upgrade the furnishings in your lair to suit your needs
  • Upgrade to a fully functional Enchanting and Spellmaking station with no need to join Mages Guild
  • Upgrade to a laboratory that buffs your Alchemy skill
  • A Vault With Roughly 15 to 20 chests to house your items

[edit] Upgrading your new home

Upon entering the Spire, you'll find a hand pedestal holding the book Frostcrag Spire Memoirs. Upon reading it, you'll discover that Aurelinwae at the Mystic Emporium in the Imperial City Market District will sell you furniture for the Spire. Talk to Aurelinwae and purchase these things from her:
