Dragonstar is one of two major cities which appears in Skyrim: Home of the Nords, one of the Project Tamriel fan-created mods for The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. Straddling Skyrim's western border with Hammerfell, Dragonstar has been a divided city since the conclusion of the War of the Bend'r Mahk some thirty years ago. Dragonstar East is the westernmost holding of the Nordic Kingdom of the Reach. The western city, meanwhile, remains under the control of Redguard Crowns, the last remnant of Hammerfell's northern Karthwasten Tomba. At the end of the Simulacrum crises, Imperial forces hastily erected a wall between the city's occupied areas to stop the fighting, a structure which stands to this day.
Jarl Jona, "the Ansei-Ender" rules her holdings from Castle Dragonstar in the eastern city. Dragonstar East is also home to the city's Arena and its Fighters Guild, though the latter has been defunct since the war. Only one establishment, the Shadowkey Tavern, offers rooms in the east, but travelers seeking only gossip and refreshments might seek out Ildgar's Alehouse as well. Much of Dragonstar East was heavily damaged during the war, and some areas have not been reconstructed.
The western half of the city, ruled by Prince Alak'tol since his narrow childhood escape from his former seat at Karthwasten, suffered less damage during the war. Dragonstar West is home to the city's Grand Bazaar, as well as its Mages Guild chapter. Travelers seeking accommodations have more options in the western city; both the Dragon Fountain Inn and Nukra-Tikil Tavern offer beds for rent.
Visitors to Dragonstar should be aware that travel across the Imperial-maintained dividing wall is heavily restricted. Additional precautions should be taken to ensure personal safety; politically-driven violence is common on both sides of the wall.
