If you page through Tamriel Rebuilt’s massive, sprawling "Asset Browser" subforum, you’ll find reams of doodads, NPCs, sound effects, and prospective quests authored by specific members of the labor pool. The community settles on a major implementation project-like the overall look and aesthetic of a new area-and the diligent workforce stakes their claim of what they’d like to work on in the forums.
