Blackridge is an abandoned town located in Cyrodiil, in the Bloodfall Kingdom.[1]

HistoryEdit

In 4E 170,[nb 1] Captain Martius Silius and his soldiers came to Blackridge seeking food and refuge after having been ambushed by goblins. The town had nothing to spare, as the previous harvest had been disastrous. After the town elder refused, Silius stabbed him through the chest, and the soldiers killed everyone in town.[2] Martius Silius was tried for the murders on the 30th of Frostfall, 4E 171, but the verdict never came, because the Thalmor declared the Great War that day, and the Empire called all soldiers to fight in the war.[2]

In 4E 180, the Warrior visited the abandoned Blackridge while investigating a series of murders.[1] There, they encountered Boregis, a survivor of the massacre ten years earlier, who revealed that he was murdering the culprits one by one for revenge. After a confrontation, the Warrior defeated Boregis.[1]

NotesEdit

^  Boregis states in 4E 180 that the town had been abandoned for ten years.
