⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Huge community trust (13,316 endorsements) — this is a proven, popular overhaul.
- Fixes a real annoyance: the vanilla sanctuary's lack of storage and beds.
- Makes the sanctuary feel like a proper assassin HQ instead of a damp hole.
👎 Cons
- Last updated in 2016 — may have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions or mods.
- No detailed feature list or screenshots in the description, so you're going in somewhat blind.
- Only affects the Dawnstar Sanctuary — other Dark Brotherhood locations remain untouched.
