I saw trebtreb's Custom Sigils mod on nexus and I was thinking, is there a way to start a clan/guild with it's own sigil under your banner. Seeing as Skyrim is in a state of civil war, I am surprised Bethesda didn't include other clans/guilds looking to grasp power. Perhaps a system where you can create your own guild/clan that can be sent to take territory but also have one other very important element to it. The one thing I saw as missing from Skyrim and it's mod list is a quest that has emotional weight to it's choices and characters/companions that are more than meet shields. Maybe have a back story to why these people rally behind you under your banner. Give them a reason to fight for you and give you a reason to not just use them as shields. The back story could be that you and a group of others are captured and made to work as slaves. The group you are with will, in a Spartacus sort of way, rally behind you and each of these characters have a past to them that you explore through dialog. No characters in Skyrim made me care if they lived or died because they were just faces most of them. The quest could after you escape and form your clan make you pick your side of Stormcloak, Imperial or Independent so that you can just ignore both and take Solitude and Windhelm yourself. Sort of in the way Fallout New Vegas let you take control of Vegas and kick out the NCR and the Legion. I am not much of a Creation Kit expert so I can't make this but I am a writer. Something like this would be very cool in my opinion. Thoughts?
