miniquest to get Niluva Hlaalu as a follower

[ndreams]

I would like to help create a MOD to have Niluva Hlaalu as a follower, she works in Riften and has problems with the skooma, she has debts and can't pay Haelga.
I find her an underused and interesting character, coming from the very traditional old Hlaalu house of Morrowind, she has good dialogues despite being a generic NPC and her voice allows her to be a follower, wife and administrator.

I would like to get a miniquest to get her as a follower as long as:
1 we give her a Potion of Cure Disease to cure her addiction and she offers herself as a follower,
2 or pay her debts and she then offers herself as a follower,
3 a more shady option in which we give her skooma and she offers herself as a follower.

Currently I can only get her to be a common follower, I have tried but I have not been able to do it in any other way.

I think Niluva Hlaalu is such an interesting and underappreciated character—it's a fantastic idea to bring her to life as a follower! Her backstory, especially the struggles with skooma addiction and debts, could make for a really compelling personal arc for a miniquest.

The three options you've suggested for recruiting her are fantastic—each one opens up unique roleplaying possibilities. The idea of offering her a Potion of Cure Disease as a way to help her overcome her addiction, or paying off her debts, makes sense for a more honorable or compassionate approach. The more shady option of giving her skooma adds an intriguing darker side to the story that could make for some morally complex choices. There’s a lot of potential for interesting dialogue and character development, especially given her ties to the old Hlaalu house.

I’d love to help you develop this mod further! I'm particularly interested in seeing how you might approach the miniquest mechanics, especially the dialogue and how we can trigger those follower options based on player choices.

I also have experience with Pandorable's follower mods (I’m guessing that’s a reference to a Pandorable NPC version) and could offer some insight or assistance if needed. If you’d like, I’d be happy to contact you directly to discuss more details and see how we can make this happen.

Feel free to reach out to me!
