When a root is first collected, the quest, "Seeking Your Roots" begins. The quest mirrors The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim quest, "A Return To Your Roots" where the crimson cousin of the Nirnroot, the Crimson Nirnroot is collected.

Nirnroots grow near water sources and can be found all around Cyrodiil. Many Nirnroots are found in pots within shops, homes, and guilds. Taking some of these potted samples is a crime.

BiologyEdit

Unlike every other plant in the game, Nirnroot does not regrow; each plant can only be harvested once. Consequently, Nirnroot is a rare plant - in fact, so rare, that no alchemist recognizes what the plant is except a man named Sinderion, located in the basement of the West Weald Inn in Skingrad.

Number of plantsEdit

There are a total of 306 Nirnroots in Cyrodiil (263 outdoors, 43 indoors).

Locating themEdit

Most Nirnroots are found near bodies of water, some are found in various buildings throughout Cyrodiil. Paying attention to shorelines and potted plants while traveling helps locate these plants without extra effort. A faint, pulsating sound emits from the location of a Nirnroot.

QuestEdit

Seeking Your Roots. Speak to Sinderion in the basement of the West Weald Inn in Skingrad, or harvest Nirnroot for the first time then speak to any alchemist to learn Sinderions location. After collecting enough Nirnroot, Sinderion will create an Elixir of Exploration with increasing degrees of strength.

Region LocationsEdit

Generally speaking, one can walk or ride along any major or minor body of water and find Nirnroot growing. Sometimes they grow between rocks or behind trees, and so require a bit of searching, but most often they are found relatively out in the open. Traveling along the Niben between Leyawiin and Bravil will yield quite a few Nirnroot.
