Areas of Vvardenfell controlled by House Redoran (red areas)

House Redoran prizes the virtues of duty, gravity, and piety. Duty is to one's own honor, and to one's family and clan. Gravity is the essential seriousness of life. Life is hard, and events must be judged, endured, and reflected upon with due care and earnestness. Piety is respect for the gods, and the virtues they represent. A light, careless life is not worth living. — Great Houses of Morrowind

House Redoran is one of the five remaining Great Houses of the Dunmer. It governs the Redoran District of northwestern Morrowind from the city of Blacklight, close to the border with Skyrim. In the District of Vvardenfell, the House's council seat is located in Ald'ruhn, and all councilors live there in the hollowed shell of a colossal prehistoric Emperor Crab, in the district known as Ald'ruhn-under-Skar. Other Redoran-dominated towns on Vvardenfell include Khuul, Maar Gan and Ald Velothi.

The main focus of House Redoran is maintaining the traditions of the settled Dunmer and, more specifically, the way of the warrior. Due to this focus, the Tribunal Temple was a natural ally. There is also mutual respect between them and the Fighters Guild and Imperial Legion. They have less respect for the other Imperial institutions, such as the Mages Guild, the Thieves Guild, and the Imperial Cult religion.

For more information, see the main lore article.

Joining House Redoran

Joining House Redoran is relatively simple: you need to talk with Neminda, who is located on the main floor of the Redoran Council Hall in Ald'ruhn. The Redoran Council Hall is located in the Manor District, Under-Skar, on the north side of town. Under-Skar is the large Emperor Crab shell building in front of you when you climb the second set of stairs through the middle of town.

Normally, you can join only one Great House in the game, but there is a bug which allows you to join both House Redoran and House Hlaalu. For more information, see the Glitches article.

After visiting the Cavern of the Incarnate and receiving Moon-and-Star, Neminda will not allow you to join House Redoran due to your conflict with the Temple. The ban is lifted after Athyn Sarethi names you Redoran Hortator.

If you have achieved at least level 21 and reputation of 50 or higher, and then bypassed becoming Redoran Hortator in the main quest, Neminda may not allow you to join House Redoran, even if you have completed the rest of the main quest. This can be fixed by visiting Athyn Sarethi, talking to him about Redoran Hortator and completing the Hortator quests. Bolvyn Venim may not give the option to defeat him, but you will still be able to join the house if you gain the support of the other councilors. It is not necessary to officially become Hortator in order to join the other Great Houses.

Bugs

• When asked about Requirements, members of House Redoran will, in addition to the aforementioned skills, mistakenly claim that Block and Marksman are favored skills.

Expelled from House Redoran

If expelled, go to Neminda or Athyn Sarethi and ask to make amends. You can make amends only once; if expelled again you are out forever. Being expelled does not let you join another house.
