Daystar Destroyed and Imperial City Vampirized MOD (IDEA)

[LifeTaker]

So, yeah, I was watching Blade and thought about the whole sun turning black and vampires ruling the world thing and decided to post this really cool idea I had.

 

Please read it all the way through. The beginning is just cliff notes, and it gets way cooler at the end.

 

Should anyone choose to actually create this mod, all they have to do is say "Original concept by Lifetaker." and I won't cry about it.

 

Also, feel free to take some creative license with this.

 

The idea is as follows.

 

Vampire quest: You get this if you're a vampire when you take the quest.

Learn about a vampire lord (Demetri) from talking to beggars about rumors and giving them gold.

Learn that an adventurer knows where to find the vampire, map marker.

Go to adventurers house. He's dead (Who could have guessed?)

Interrogate his neighbor.

Neighbor tells you that you're a vampire and you need to get out and go back from whence you came.

You ask, where did I come from?

He tells you the location of a cave.

You hit up the cave and the vampires there tell you that he's not here, but at some shrine praying to Dagon.

You hit up the shrine and talk to him.

His name is Demetri.

He tells you about a plan to take the "Dragon's Eye Crystal" from the Imperial City Palace.

You agree.

He tells you where it is and how to get to it.

You go to the palace and fight through a swarm or guards and monks and crap to get to the top.(all guards and crap are scaled and not overpowered)

You get the crystal and have to fight another squad of guards.

You escape through a sewer grate that leads you to the outside of the city.

You run back to the cave.

The vampire lord takes the crystal and puts it on an altar.

Now he needs a daedric book of spells from the Imperial City Library.

What?

No seriously, you have to do it.

But aren't there like a million guards?

No, take the sewer.

Oh yeah.

Also, take this spell of cloning. It'll clone you three times, so there will be four of you.

Alright.

So you go to the library via tunnels and have to sneak through the library to get to the shelves.

Sneaking around the blind monks, you get the book.

Immediately after getting the book, a monk hears you and starts shouting.

Like twenty guards pour in.

You use the spell to copy yourself.

Yourselves tell you that they have this covered and that you need to run like hell.

You take the book and yourself to the cave and put it on the altar.

The vampire lord guy tells you that the ritual is almost complete. All he needs now is a Colossal soul gem.

Whaaaat?

No seriously, we need one.

But didn't I just get you some awesome crystal?

Yeah, but we need another and stuff.

Fine...

You can find it in the arcane university, here are some markers to a convenient sewer grate inside the tower and a spell to teleport you to the arcane university laboratory.

Alright.

So, you go to the tower via convenient sewer passages, and get into the university.

By now, you're pretty infamous, seeing as you've stolen a bunch of imperial artifacts and stuff.

The mages begin pouring in.

You read the incantation in the book and open a portal.

The mages begin ass raping you, so you get into the portal and teleport into the lab.

The mages in the lab begin hitting you and more mages pour in from the portal that you opened.

The mages have like 10 health a piece, and can only use fireball, but there's like twenty of them.

If you use that spell you got earlier, you should be good.

So, you kill the mages and get the gem.

You go back through the portal and have to fight five battlemages.

You kill them and get back into the sewer.

You get back to the cave and the vampires all cheer you all the way to the back of the cave.

You place the soul gem on the altar and the vampire lord tells you that the items are all there.

Whew.

He utters a short prayer and tells everyone to get outside as "The days of hiding from the daystar are complete."

The altar begins glowing really big and a laser beam shoots through the ceiling and up through a now obvious hole in the top of the cave.

You all follow your vampire lord outside and get to see an awesome cutscene.

The sunlight begins to fade as the beam of light cruises toward the sun.

The sun begins getting covered in sunspots and the darkness spreads along its surface.

The world is cast in darkness, night is forever.

The vampire lord tells you and all of the (twenty or so) vampires to follow him towards the imperial city.

You all sprint there and kill the guards at the gate.

You all walk in and kill every guard in the imperial city. The doors are boarded up and the people (anyone who isn't an essential guard, but imperial guards and palace guards litter the streets) are inside.

After every guard is dead, you speak to the vampire lord.

He tells you, and only you, to follow him to the imperial palace.

You all go in and the only people left standing are the chancellor and four of his body guards, surrounded by five vampires.

You and the lord stride towards the humans and deliver your demands.

The vampires will keep the imperial city and the chancellor can lead the humans from some other city.

The chancellor kisses at the vampire lord's feet and is escorted out along with his guards to the outer city walls, where he is told to go to every city and tell everyone what happened to the Imperial city.

The vampires unbarricade all of the doors and windows of the imperial city and the corpses of the dead are hung from the light posts.

After about a month, a vampire runner will come to you (on a horse if you're on the countryside, or on foot if you're inside) and tell you that there is a large army of the living coming to take the city back. He will also become your companion until you get back to the vampire lord.

You go back to the vampire lord.

He tells you that there simply aren't enough vampires to combat the living.

He asks you to go to four different caves and consult four of the most powerful litches in Cyrodiil and ask for them to combine their powers to create the largest army of the dead that the world has ever seen.

You have a choice. The game now makes you save.

You can either say that you have plenty enough and fight the humans as you are, and probably lose, or you can get the litches to help you and probably win.

 

The Arrogant: (no autosave)

The way of the arrogant and foolhardy.

You decide that you have plenty enough men.

You go into battle with the imperial army and almost all of your men are killed or wounded horribly. There are barely enough people to continue fighting and you are forced to surrender. The city returns to normal and it is as if nothing happened. You will be in jail and the sun will have reverted. You then have to wait out your sentence in the jail cell or pick the lock.

 

The Tactician: (autosave)

The way of the tactical and logical.

You decide that it would be foolish to sally forth and that you would lose all that you have gained. You decide to talk to the litches. Each litch you meet agrees that the tactics are sound and possible. They agree to go to Daystar's End and begin raising an army of the dead. You go to the palace and the vampire lord tells you that you've done well. While you were gone, he talked to the count of Skingrad and got his help in defending the palace. You greet the count and leave. The litches move to the district that all the graves and stuff are in. The litches make a pentagram on the ground in blood and ask for you to stand at it's head. You stand there (cinematic type thing) and listen to them mumble for a while and then you look around and see skeletons and zombies appearing above the graves. The zombies and skeletons immediately run outside the keep walls, followed by the guards. The lord talks to you and tells you that there is fighting to be had. You run outside and see the imperial army being destroyed by skeletons, zombies, and vampires. You enter a little fight with like ten of the imperial soldiers where you basically put your sword in their mouths and twist it around (IT'S SO EASY). A runner comes to you and tells you that the lord was horribly injured. You go to the palace where the litches are standing around him using magic and trying to heal him. He's stuck full of silver arrows and tells you the following. "Daystar's End has come. You shall rule this great city of the dead in my place. My fate has come to pass. Gurglegurgle..." Dead. The litches tell you that there was nothing that they could have done for him. You say it's cool tell them to get him buried. The human army deafeated, you leave the safety of your walls and go to a group of vampires standing around all of the counts and countesses of the land. You tell them each to go back to their own homelands and give your city a weekly pick of beggars from each of their cities. They agree and are escorted away. The Skingrad count bids you adieu and leaves for his home. A runner from the palace tells you that Demetri had made it clear that you would inherit the throne. So, you retire to your room. There is a note on the bed. You read it and it tells you to look in the chest. You look in the chest and it's full of armor and weapons. You get his armor, Demetri's Gloves, Curiass, Hood, Boots, and Greaves. Looks a lot like this http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/images/7...-1193316696.jpg You also get his sword, the "Daystar's Edge" which would look like this http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/images/5...-1192695813.jpg You then get a really cool palace room.

 

Changes that this mod makes on the in game world: (IF YOU CHOOSE THE TACTICIAN)

No more sun damage for vampires.

New sun texture.

Four new caves containing Litches and their undead zombies.

No more vampire lairs. What vampire wouldn't want to move to a vampire city?

The Imperial City is now called "Daystar's End" and is ruled by vampires.

All imperial guards who patrol the roads are now vampires.

Dead (rotted) bodies litter the streets, and there is blood EVERYWHERE.

Everyone in the imperial city who was once alive is now a vampire.

The guards are vampires clad in Imperial Legion armor.

Two new shops open: "The Cattle Pit" is a club where people can go to socialize with other vampires and act angsty as well as rent a room with a human in it to tell to go to sleep where the vampire can feed from them, killing them. The merchant's inn is renamed to the "Bloodmoon" where a player can get human hearts for sale as well as blood potions. The creator of the mod can do what they want with the other shops as well as they stay about the same. I don't want there to be a complete shop overhaul, but owners and names may change as well as the look of the shop.

 

 

But wait, there's more!

 

Remember when I said that "if you were a vampire when you started the quest" you'd have all that stuff happen?

Well, what if you aren't?

The beggar will tell you to go to the adventurers house.

The neighbor of the adventurer will tell you to go to a local vampire hunter for more info.

The vampire hunter and his team will be there and speak to you.

They've been following a particularly evil vampire, Demetri, on his path to some unknown end.

They believe that he's after the Dragon's Eye Gem in the Imperial City Palace.

They send you and a compliment of vampire hunters to the palace. You explain to the chancellor what's about to happen and as he's completely denying you any access, an imperial runner comes up and says "OH CRAP OH CRAP THEY'RE MESSING OUR CRAP UP!"

So the chancellor believes you and lets you into the gem room.

The guards in there are dead and the gem is gone. You see Demetri go down into a sewer grate while four vampires stand around it. The vampires fight you and the guards.

You kill the vampires.

You report back to the chancellor and tell him that the gem is gone.

He's all like "Why would he want that thing? It has no magical value, our mages have looked over it multiple times.

One of the vampire hunters is like "Well, there's a reason that he wanted it, so it has to have SOME value."

You leave and go back to your fort.

The Vampire Hunter scholar starts talking about the death of the sun and you all disbelieve him.

He says that if he's right, the vampires will be after some ancient texts.

You all go to the imperial city library and find three vampires fighting off the last of the monks in the room. You kill the vampires and look at the carnage.

You speak to one of the last remaining monks and he tells you that the only book missing is the book on Daedric Rituals.

You all go a little pale as you think of a world without sun.

You head back to the fort.

The scholar believes that the mages guild is the last target. So, you all go there.

You enter the mages guild lobby and there is a portal in the middle of the room. A few battlemages are standing around it and then Demetri steps through the portal. You say "OUTNUMBERED, BYACH!"

He says "NUPE!"

He multiplies into like five guys and then the Demetris begin killing the battlemages.

You all kill the Demetris and count the bodies. In the fighting, one of them slipped out. As you're about to search the bodies, they all disappear.

 

So you all go back to the fort.

You tell the scholar what happened.

He begins sobbing.

You ask why.

He tells you that the sun is no more. You all run to the top of the fort and look at the sun.

The sun gets struck by a bolt from somewhere in the wilderness.

The sun begins to turn black.

You all frown.

The scholar tells you all that the next logical choice would be to attack the Imperial city while the time is right.

You all run to the imperial city.

The doors and windows are all boarded up and the streets are filled with imperial guards.

You go straight to the chancellor.

He tells you that they're screwed and they have no backup.

He starts crying and an imperial runner comes in with a couple of arrows stuck in his back.

Through gritted teeth, he tells you all that the vampires have broken the outer wall and the streets run red with blood! WE'RE SCREWED!

Suddenly, the runner dies and twenty or so vampires come in through the door, followed by Demetri.

The chancellor gets on his hands and knees.

Demetri tells you all to stop grovelling and get up. So, he does, and then Demetri says that he's won, blah blah blah.

You are all escorted through the burning streets while the dead bodies rot in the gutters and the vampires attack the barricades.

The chancellor, once outside the walls, blames you for all of this.

You are all like "Whaaaat? I tried to help"

And he gets all Downs-rage and starts running off.

So, you all go back to the fort.

Once there, a "Rebellion" runner shows up.

Apparently, the people still in the city have joined forces against their new hosts.

They need supplies and a supply line. So, you make a sort of underground railroad and get supplies to the survivors.

Later the chancellor comes back and tells you that he's really sorry and he didn't mean it.

It's alright.

So he tells you about his plan to make an army of the living to kill off the vampires.

So, you go to each of the counts and countesses and tell them all what happened to the imperial city.

They join your cause and you all march to the city (even count skingrad, but he doesn't come himself). Upon getting there, your forces are winning. and there are a few vamps left. There's a little of everyone. Each town guard is represented and there are a few legion guys left too.

You finish them off and enter the market district.

You see that the rebellion has taken place and the people have weapons and are killing the vampires in the streets.

You all join in and sweep the city clean of the vamps.

You go to the palace and get in.

Once in the palace, there's a cool boss battle with Demetri and his five guards and you win.

Cheering!

You're given a cool room in the palace with some vampire slayer armor (looks like this http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/images/1...1201014365.jpg) and your disposition with everyone in the Imperial city is raised to 100.

 

No real changes in this one, other than everyone loving you and you getting really awesome armor.

 

 

So yeah. That's my mod idea. I really don't have oblivion installed, but I've played it a bunch. There is a lot here, so I don't suppose anyone would be able to make it themselves. I certainly don't know anything about modding or any of that stuff, so I guess this idea will sit around and gather dust.

 

It's nice to have gotten that off of my chest.

 

Well, good luck to the maker and my best wishes go with them.

 

Thanks for reading!

Just wondering if a Moderator could move this to the ideas/suggestions thread. I didn't see it before I posted this, so it's in the wrong section.

 

Thanks!
