Quests & Factions

The world of Oblivion is a tapestry woven with countless quests and interconnected factions, each offering unique storylines, challenges, and rewards. Whether you're drawn to the thrill of combat, the allure of magic, the cunning of thievery, or the pursuit of divine justice, there's a quest and a faction tailored to your playstyle.

Cyrodiil is home to several major guilds: the Fighter's Guild, Mages Guild, and Thieves Guild. Each offers a distinct questline that allows players to rise through the ranks, gaining access to better equipment, training, and unique abilities. The Dark Brotherhood, a shadowy organization of assassins, provides a more morally ambiguous path, while the Knights of the Nine expansion introduces a holy order dedicated to combating evil.
