For other uses, see Stros M'kai.

Stros M'Kai is a small island zone in The Elder Scrolls Online that lies off the southern coast of the province of Hammerfell. Pirates and smugglers find safe haven in Stros M'Kai, which is ruled by the self-appointed Headman Bhosek the Bloody. Dwemer ruins are known to exist on the island.

Background[]

"One of the first landfalls settled by the Redguards when they sailed east from their lost homeland of Yokuda, the island of Stros M'Kai is now a haven for freebooters, sea-rovers, and other nautical entrepeneurs who roam the Abecean Sea."

Stros M'Kai was previously inhabited by the Dwemer prior to their disappearance in 1E 700 as evidenced by prominent ruins of Bthzark situated on and in the Ogres Tooth Mountains and various other surrounding artificial features.[1] By 1E 808, the ancestors of the Redguards, the Yokudans, arrived on the island from ancient Yokuda and built the port-cities of Saintsport and Port Hunding.[2] A statue of Frandar Hunding, a revered Yokudan warrior-prince, is a major feature of Port Hunding, which was also named in his honor. Aside from the native Redguards, goblins also inhabit the island, particularly in the north.[1]
