Ash creatures are horrific monsters spawned by Dagoth Ur through connection with the disease known as Corprus. They can most commonly be found in the vicinity of Red Mountain, although exceptions do occur throughout the game.
Ascended SleeperEdit
Ascended Sleepers are distorted half-Dunmer, half-beast abominations created through magic. They are usually associated with Dagoth Ur. Sleepers are intelligent, aggressive, and dangerous to all but the most experienced travelers, hurling powerful Destruction spells at their foes. When killed, they leave no corpse except for their skull.
Ascended Sleepers will greet you in one of two ways:
- "What are you doing? You have no idea. Poor animal. You struggle and fight, and understand nothing."
- "A bug. A weed. A piece of dust. Busy, busy, busy."
They also have a dialogue topic:
- Understand nothing: "You think what you do has meaning? You think you slay me, and I am dead? It is just dream and waking over and over, one appearance after another, nothing real. What you do here means nothing. Why do we waste our breath on you?"

Ash GhoulEdit
Ash Ghouls are half-Dunmer, half-beast creatures created by the dark magic of Dagoth Ur. Like Ash Zombies, they appear to be Dunmer who have had their upper faces removed, but a wormlike proboscis grows out of the hollow space. Despite being called "ghouls", these creatures are not undead; the only exception is Dagoth Baler, who is set as "undead" instead of "humanoid".
Ash Ghouls have three dialogue topics:
- Dagoth Ur: "He will not come to you, Lord Nerevar. It is you who must beg forgiveness. Go to him, beneath Red Mountain, kneel before him, and he will show you mercy."
- Fallen brother: "The soul of Dagoth Gares is among us. You have broken his body, but his spirit is with us in our waking dreams."
- Will not submit: "You have chosen war with Dagoth Ur. We grieve for your loss, but we will not spare you. You refused the sweetness of Lord Dagoth's friendship. Now know the bitterness of his fury."

BugsEdit
- Contrary to what people in Vvardenfell may say, Ash Ghouls do not drop Ghoul Hearts.
The Morrowind Patch Project, version 1.6.4, fixes this bug.
Ash SlaveEdit
Ash Slaves are deranged humanoid creatures created by the dark magic of Dagoth Ur. Approach with caution, as they will often cast ranged destruction spells at you.
Their dialogue is oddly furniture-related; their greetings consist of the following:
- "The chairs. The tables. All confused. We hear the words, and must speak them. We take them, and arrange them, but still, they will not be quiet."
- "Everything is wrong. This is not straight. This is too high. This is in my way. We must put them right."

Ash VampireEdit
Ash Vampires are formidable creatures created by the dark magic of Dagoth Ur. They serve as the nobility of the Sixth House. Despite being called "vampires", these creatures are not undead, and it is not possible to catch vampirism from them. Unlike other creatures, there are no generic ash vampires.

BugsEdit
- Killing an Ash Vampire should weaken Dagoth Ur in the following way:
- However, scripts cannot affect actors that have not loaded yet, so Dagoth Ur will be weakened only if you visit him before killing an Ash Vampire.
- OpenMW fixes this bug. However, that makes it possible to reduce Dagoth Ur's 300 health to zero by killing only six Ash Vampires. To prevent such an outcome, OpenMW also added a hardcoded exception. Thus, killing an Ash Vampire will no longer affect Dagoth Ur in any way.
- All Ash Vampires have unique dialogue, which often go unnoticed as they immediately initiate combat with the player.
- The Morrowind Patch Project, version 1.6.6, addresses this issue. It reduces their Fight stat from 90 to 50.
Ash ZombieEdit
Ash Zombies are creatures magically created and transformed by the followers of Dagoth Ur, serving as the lowest minions in the legions of ash creatures. They appear to be Dunmer who have had their upper face (eyes and nose) carved out to leave only a hollow space. Despite being called "zombies", these creatures are not undead.
Their dialogue, if you can calm them, is pleading for Dagoth Ur to talk to them and let them sleep:
- "WHERE ARE YOU, LORD? We cannot hear you.... SPEAK to us! PLEASE!"
- "What are you? Where is this place? I'm so tired, LET ME SLEEP!"

Corprus StalkerEdit
Corprus Stalkers are deranged and deformed victims of the dreaded Corprus Disease, which has no known cure. Care must be taken when confronting these creatures as they have become incredibly tough owing to the disease. People in Vvardenfell may warn you that you may be infected with Corprus by fighting Stalkers, but this is untrue: the only ways to become infected are during the Sixth House Base quest (an unavoidable outcome) and from Tanusea Veloth.

Lame CorprusEdit
Lame Corpruses are deformed and deranged victims of the dreaded Corprus Disease, suffering the advanced stages. The disease heightens their Strength and abilities, making them dangerous foes. Like Corprus Stalkers, people will warn you about the threat of catching Corprus from them. Again, this is not true, though they may infect you with Black-Heart Blight.
