Notes
- If you go here before the Dark Brotherhood quest it is full of mercenaries, similar to Marauders. No one is on Roderick's bed (you can sleep on it if you like) and there is no medicine cabinet.
- There was originally a city named Sutch at this location; the city was, obviously, removed before release, but the fort and the Oblivion gate remained. In addition, there are two references to the "city" of Sutch in journal entries for the Fighters Guild quests Mystery at Harlun's Watch and The Wandering Scholar.

- A city named Sutch located in Hammerfell is mentioned in the book Thief of Virtue. There could be a connection, considering Fort Sutch's location near the border of Hammerfell.
