Gnisis (Morrowind) is a mining town in the West Gash. It is under Imperial control, but its architecture shows a strong Redoran influence. Its residency consists almost entirely of Dunmer and Orcs, with a smattering of Imperials. As a mining town, Gnisis and its residents are heavily dependent on the Gnisis Eggmine, which has become blighted. There is a temple in the center of Gnisis, notable for Vivec's Ashmask and important to members of the Tribunal Temple on a pilgrimage. Various stands surround the temple where the player can buy and sell goods. A silt strider platform that offers transportation to Ald'ruhn, Khuul, and other towns stands on the edge of the village. Additionally, on the outskirts of Gnisis is Arvs-Drelen, a Telvanni necromancer's tower, home to Baladas Demnevanni, who players may be sent to see on various missions.

Gnisis is also the site of Fort Darius, apparently named after its commander. Darius is the only garrison commander who will allow the player to join the Imperial Legion, providing suitable Imperial equipment and armor that must be worn from then on when dealing with any Legion personnel anywhere in the game; otherwise, they will refuse to speak to the player. Darius also provides missions ranging from rescuing kidnapped hostages to strong-arming the locals into obedience.

History

This town is destroyed during the Fourth Era, during the eruption of Red Mountain.[1] The only survivor of this is Neria Relethyl.[1]
