LE Alert when NPCs die

[miceder]

I'm looking for a mod that will show a message when a named NPC dies (not generic guards, respawning characters, etc.). I'm tired of dragons (or vampires) attacking me in or around a city, then after I kill them, I have to look around the area to see if anyone died. There aren't a lot of NPCs in skyrim to begin with, so whenever one dies, I always either have to load an earlier save, or resurrect them if I can find the body, to keep the world from getting too empty.

Thanks.

If you're just going to try to resurrect them anyway, why not simply get a mod that makes named unique NPCs essential?

I mentioned resurrecting them, because I technically did that once, compared to the dozens upon dozens of times I reloaded a previous save after finding out someone died. I generally hate using the console, unless necessary (quest bugs), and I still regret bringing the one guy back with it.

I'm the type of person who likes saving everyone, but it's not much fun trying to save people who can't die, so the essential mod wouldn't really work for me. (It's also more fun casting Mayhem when I get bored if the townsfolk can actually kill each other, although I obviously don't save after that).

Good thought on the Essential NPC mod, it's just not for me though.

I've been working on creating spell effects which can toggle essential, or protected flags on NPC's thus allowing you to make them kill able or not kill able at a whim. I've already finished my custom spell which toggles whether they are resurrected or killed.

 

Alas though, my schedule is hectic, so I have no time table as to when I'll be done.
