Mods for a Barbarian/Sword and Sorcery setup?

Good day everyone!

 

So I recently got back into Skyrim, with a brand new PC! So I was hoping to start a playthrough that was setup as a Sword and Sorcery game.

 

For those who may not know, Conan The Barbarian is probably the most popular of this genre, but for other examples Frank Frazetta's art was a big inspiration for it. There was also Fire and Ice, Deathstalker and Beastmaster.

 

Luckily Skyrim already has a pretty good base for this style of Fantasy, but there are some things that I believe would make it better. I am looking through Mods and to find some (I have found immersive armor's, really cool!) but I thought I would ask on here incase there is some I may miss that other's may know of.

 

Here is what I am looking for:

 

1. No Mention of Dragonborn! I am doing this playthrough as just a Nord with a taste of adventure and earning gold, no special birth or anything. If the mod has some small mention of Dragonborn then that's fine.

 

2. Very rare and low Magic, what I mean by that is within the S&S genre Magic is more Occult centered where not every other person and can shoot lightening out of their hands, but instead it is limited mostly to Villain characters (Ancient Necromancer/Wizard in a tower/dungeon).

 

3. Damsel in Distress, now it dosent have to be females, but anything that adds NPC's who may be enslaved or captured. Most S&S stories have a Princess or Person Captured by some Bandit's to sell or some Cult for a Sacrifice.

 

4. More Epic Dungeon Bosses, this one is a bit related to the Villains I mentioned. Pretty much more unique Bosses within the Dungeons.

 

Well that's what i'm seeking, but i'm open to just about anything, so if there is something you know about that would add to what i'm looking for, please share!

 

 

 

I appreciate any help, and hope you have a good day!

 

 

 

 

Oh, P.S. for anyone who may be fans of this Genre and like Fire and Ice (And that Rotoscope style animation) I recommend you check out "The Spine Of Night" a movie that just came out that's in that Rotoscope Fantasy style, a nice tribute to the Ralph Bakshi work.

1 - As you want to play as Non-Dragonborn you want to checkout Skyrim Unbound Reborn - https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/27962 This lets you select to play as a non dragonborn character. I'll be honest I dont know it it stops guards or random npcs greeting you as dragonborn through as I always play DB characters.

 

3 - Notice Board - https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/3218 adds jobs where a random NPC will get kidnapped and must be rescued, as well as other gold making jobs. Missives - https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/17576 adds jobs like Notice Board but they are more localized to that hold depending on the town your in.

 

4 - Skyrim Revamped https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/14598 and Skyrim Revamped Rebalanced - https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/27201 - is what I used for boss fights along with many other comabt or overhaul mods :smile:

 

Hope that helps and goodluck :smile:
