</noinclude>{{Lore Link|Red Mountain}} goes by many names.

The mountain is a vast volcano that dominates the island of {{Lore Link|Vvardenfell}} in [[Lore:Morrowind|Morrowind]].<noinclude> The mountain has had two major eruptions: the Sun's Death event in {{Year|1E 668}}, and the {{Lore Link|Red Year}} in the {{Year|4E 5}}.{{Ref|name=TNM|{{Cite book|The Nirnoot Missive}}}}{{Ref|name=THoRRVI|{{Cite book|History of Raven Rock, Vol. I}}}}</noinclude> The island was actually named after the volcano: the original name of Red Mountain was '''Vvardenfell''', which translates to "City of the Strong Shield" in Dwemeri {{Ref|name=PGE1M|{{Cite book|PGE|1|Morrowind}}}}. It is a small continent all to itself, riven from the rest of Morrowind by the remains of a colossal crater. On a clear day, its peak can be seen from the city of {{Lore Link|Almalexia (city)|Almalexia}}, 250 miles to the south.{{Ref|name=PGE1M}} Red Mountain truly dominates {{Lore Link|Dunmer}} life, reaching far beyond its immediate surroundings. It is generally considered to be the most dangerous region on the continent. In this wasteland of deep ravines, so-called {{Lore Link|Foyada}}, and lava pools, {{Lore Link|The Blight|blighted}} monsters run free and the minions of [[Lore:Dagoth Ur|Dagoth Ur]], so-called ash creatures roam the land. Entrance to Red Mountain is limited: around the perimeter of Red Mountain the [[Lore:Tribunal|Tribunal]] constructed the {{Lore Link|Ghostfence}} (~ {{Year|3E 400}} - {{Year|3E 417}}), a giant Spirit Wall. The only way inside without extended jump or levitation is through {{Lore Link|Ghostgate}} in the south. This region can be marked by the steep climbs to the top of the mountain and by the {{Lore Link|The Blight|Ash Storms}} that fill the air and limit visibility to a few feet. Travelers new to Morrowind should be wary of this region, and anyone entering should proceed with caution.
Since the loss of the [[Lore:Dwemer|Dwemer]] Artifacts (~ {{Year|3E 414}}), {{Lore Link|Sunder}} and {{Lore Link|Keening}}, few have ventured inside the Ghostfence. Red Mountain is almost entirely uncharted, and one will not find any accurate, up-to-date maps or terrain guides anywhere. It is known, however, that there are four ancient Dwemer Citadels in the region, three of which are residences for Dagoth Ur's most trusted ash vampires; the other being the headquarters of Dagoth Ur himself. Even though this area is extremely dangerous, {{Lore Link|Glass}} and {{Lore Link|Ebony}} mines have been set up inside the Ghostfence under Imperial guard.
During the [[Lore:Imperial Simulacrum|Imperial Simulacrum]], [[Lore:Jagar Tharn|Jagar Tharn]] used the Dwarven mines beneath the mountain as a hiding place for a piece of the shattered [[Lore:Staff of Chaos|Staff of Chaos]]. The [[Lore:Hero|Eternal Champion]] discovered the entrance to the mines by striking the Hammer of Gharen against the Anvil of Mithas to produce a ringing which would reveal its location. The hero retrieved the piece, completing the Staff, only to discover that Tharn had drained its power into the [[Lore:Jewel of Fire|Jewel of Fire]].{{Ref|Events of [[Arena:Arena|Arena]]}}
The [[Lore:Foyada Mamaea|Foyada Mamaea]] leads from Ghostgate to the {{Lore Link|Moonmoth Legion Fort}} near {{Lore Link|Balmora}}, and an unnamed foyada follows the Ghostfence northwest to {{Lore Link|Ald'ruhn}}. Just north of the Ghostfence is the lost Dunmer fortress of the Sixth House, {{Lore Link|Kogoruhn}}. {{MWTense|There is a secret entrance that links this structure with Red Mountain proper.
