Morrowind:Shrines
Throughout Vvardenfell, there are numerous shrines which grant temporary boons to anyone, for a small donation.
Tribunal Shrines
All of these shrines give you at least four options for your blessings. The first three are common to all of them, Cure Common Disease, Cure Blight Disease, and Cure Poison. The other blessings vary from shrine to shrine. The size of the donation required depends on your status with the Tribunal Temple. Non-members must pay 35 gold in order to receive a blessing. Laymen and Novices need pay only 5 gold, and Initiates or above can receive blessings for free.

NOTE: Vivec's Mystery and Almsivi Restoration are actually free for non-members due to a bug in the script.
Imperial Cult Altars
Imperial Cult Altars are available at all Imperial Cult locations. These cost 25 gold for non-members, 10 gold for Laymen and Novices, and are again free for Initiates and above. There are four blessings available from these shrines. Just like Tribunal Shrines, they have Cure Common Disease, Cure Blight Disease, and Cure Poison. And in addition, they have Restore Attributes, which is exactly the same as Almsivi Restoration on the Shrines of the Tribunal (it restores skills as well as attributes despite the name). They can be found at the following locations:
- Ald'ruhn, Guild of Mages
- Buckmoth Legion Fort, Interior
- Ebonheart, Imperial Chapels
- Gnisis, Fort Darius
- Moonmoth Legion Fort, Interior
- Pelagiad, Fort Pelagiad
- Sadrith Mora, Wolverine Hall, Imperial Shrine
- Vivec, Foreign Quarter Canalworks
Special Shrines
There are a few unique shrines, mostly related to Tribunal Temple quests. These provide more powerful blessings, though at a somewhat higher price. Below is a chart detailing these shrines, giving location, blessing, and required donation.
Shrine | Location | Requirements | Blessing |
---|---|---|---|
Assarnibibi Shrine | Mount Assarnibibi | Must complete 4 corners quest | Cure Common Disease, Cure Blight Disease, and Cure Poison |
The first time you activate this shrine after completing the quest, you will be rewarded with the Ebony Mail. | |||
Shrine of Humility / Fields of Kummu Shrine |
Ascadian Isles Region, [1,-5] | Muck | Feather 100 pts for 48 min |
Shrine of Pride / Ghostgate Shrine |
Red Mountain Region, [2,5] | Soul Gem | Fortify Magicka 50 pts, Shield 25 pts for 48 min |
Warning: This shrine will take one of each type of soul gem you have in your inventory, including filled gems. If you don't want to lose them, drop all but one gem (preferably low-quality and empty) before activating the shrine. Azura's Star will not be taken, so it's safe to carry. | |||
Shrine of Valor / Koal Cave Shrine |
Koal Cave | Dreugh Wax | Fortify Unarmored, Light Armor, Medium Armor, Heavy Armor 10 pts for 48 min (Dreugh_Cuirass_TTRM) |
If you have defeated the Dreugh Warlord deeper in the cave, you will also receive an enchanted Dreugh Cuirass with a Fortify Endurance 10 pts for 60 secs Cast-on-Use enchantment on it. This is not a one-time-only reward, so you can get an endless supply of them for every Dreugh Wax you donate. Since they're worth over 5,000 gold, this is a good way to get a lot of cash quickly. | |||
Magic Rock of Maar Gan | Maar Gan, Temple | After taunting the Daedra | Fortify Speechcraft and Personality 10 pts for 48 min |
Mount Kand Shrine | Mount Kand, Cavern | During or after Pilgrimage to Mount Kand quest | Fortify Endurance and Intelligence 10 pts for 48 min |
Shrine of Generosity / Palace Shrine |
Vivec, Palace | 100 Gold | Fortify Mercantile and Luck 10 pts for 48 min |
There are two shrines in front of the entrance to the palace. You only need to donate to one of them. | |||
Sanctus Shrine | Sheogorad Region, [1,21] | During or after Silent Pilgrimage quest | Fortify Endurance and Willpower 10 pts for 48 min |
Shrine of the Mask | Gnisis, Temple | Potion of Cure Disease | Cure Common Disease, Cure Blight Disease, and Cure Poison |
Shrine of Courtesy / Shrine of the Puzzle Canal |
Vivec, Puzzle Canal | Silver Longsword | Water Breathing and Swift Swim 25 pts for 48 min |
The Silver Longsword is only required the first time. You can return to this shrine as many times as you like without making another donation. | |||
Shrine of Daring / Shrine to Stop the Moon |
Vivec Temple | Potion of Rising Force | Levitate 100 pts for 24 min |
Any strength Rising Force potion will do, and it will automatically select the weakest in your inventory. Home-brew Levitate potions will not work, however. Danso Indules near the shrine sells some potions you can use. | |||
Statue of Malacath | Sheogorad Region, [5,21] | Daedra's Heart | Blessings of the First Corner: Fortify Strength 10-20 pts for 48 min |
Statue of Mehrunes Dagon | Ald Sotha | none | Blessings of the Second Corner: Fortify Destruction and Axe, and Fortify Attack 10 pts for 48 min |
Statue of Molag Bal | Bal Ur | During 4 corners quest | Blessings of the Third Corner: Fortify Speechcraft 5 pts for 24 min |
The first time you activate this shrine, you will also receive a new spell: Command of the Third Corner: Command Humanoid 5-25 pts for 30 secs on Touch, (cost 30 magicka) | |||
Statue of Sheogorath | Ald Daedroth, Inner Shrine | Gambolpuddy | Blessings of the Fourth Corner: Fortify Intelligence, Luck, Personality, and Willpower 1-25 pts for 24 min, Drain Intelligence, Luck, Personality, and Willpower 1-25 pts for 24 min |
Yes, this shrine could just as easily be a curse as a blessing, as it both raises and lowers the same four attributes by a random amount. Very unpredictable, but what else would you expect from the Mad God? | |||
Shrine of Justice / Vivec Ash Mask |
Gnisis, Temple | Potion of Cure Common Disease | New spell: Vivec's Touch: Cure Common and Blight Disease on Touch (cost 10 magicka) |
This mask is hidden inside the pillar. Interacting with a panel on the pillar itself will reveal the real mask. |
