If you're someone who can't resist a good piece of cheese, get ready, because Tamriel is taking this passion to an epic level! 'Cheeses of Tamriel' is a quirky and thematic expansion for 'The Elder Scrolls: Betrayal of the Second Era' that brings a love for dairy straight to your gaming table. Now, let's be clear: these aren't for you to eat (though the temptation is real), but for your fictional characters to enjoy while adventuring through the land.
This set introduces 20 unique cheeses sourced directly from the world of The Elder Scrolls Online. Most of them (19 varieties) feature fantastic art and flavor names but share the same mechanical effect, keeping the game balanced while adding visual flair. However, there is a crown jewel: the legendary 'Shivering Cheese', which provides a slightly better benefit than the others, making it the ultimate prize for any party.
But beware! In Tamriel, gluttony comes with a cost. Overconsuming these dairy delights might keep your character healthy, but it will leave them feeling 'clogged up' — specifically, plagued by fatigue. It's the kind of addition that adds a bit of spice to your campaign, bringing extra customization and that signature touch of humor the franchise is known for. One final warning: Argonians, stay away! Dairy is definitely not approved for Argonian consumption. If you're already diving into the base campaign and want to add a bit of personality (and saturated fat) to your heroes, this is the perfect addition.
