Blackrose Prison (Online)

For other uses, see Blackrose Prison.

"When Imperial Potentate Versidue-Shaie wanted a distant dungeon to house the most feared criminal and political prisoners of the Second Empire, he ordered a penal institution built on the coast of Black Marsh; it was named Blackrose Prison after the ancient city a day's march to the north."

The Blackrose Prison is a group arena that appears in The Elder Scrolls Online: Murkmire, found south of Dead-Water Village. The Blackrose Prison has been taken under control by the Blackguards, Naga descendants of the original prison inmates. The dungeon focuses on various mechanics, fighting through waves of enemies in five different arenas.

Quests[]

"Built in a single day centuries ago by the powerful mage Pelladil Direnni and his Stone Atronachs, Blackrose Prison was once one of the Empire's most feared penal colonies. Those unfortunate (or unlucky) enough to be sent to the prison, located in the southern swamps of Murkmire, were rarely seen again. Now, the dungeon's crumbling ruins serve a new role as a proving ground for the Blackguard, a monstrous band comprised of the descendants of the prison's former inmates."
