Shadows over Everrest

[Peppez]

Hello everybody, I am working on a new module (and my first slightly-big one too). So far I have one new creature, four new armors, five new buildings (one small village), Two new weapon models, one with three texture variations the other with four and both are scripted. And so far I have only the start of the quest done. Hopefully when I am done the quest will be at least moderatly long, and I should also have some side-quests thrown in there :thumbsup:

 

Here is the main storyline I have so far:

 

The player travels into the small village of Everrest and talks to the Villager Elder, who tells him about how a Villager has recently gone missing. He tells the player that they couldn't find any trace of him, but when they payed the local hunter to search for him he told them that he had found a blood trail leading to a haunted cave, then goes into details about what happened in the cave.He tells you about how when they sent a villager in to explore the cave he ran out screaming about hearing voices inside the cave. Once the player accepts the quest he must go to an haunted cave in search of the missing villager. Once you get to the cave and explore a few floors of cave tunnels, you find the missing villagers body, on his body you pick up a note that says that he ran into some sort of black monster outside the cave while he was picking blackberries and says that he wants you to warn the village about the monster. So you start going back on your way through the cave until you get to the beginning and encounter an ancient skeleton. Once you kill it you decide that the two events seem to be linked and you go back to the elder and tell him about the skeleton and the note. Once you tell the elder he tells you that he will investiate the skeleton while you investiate the mysterious black creature. He tells you to go to the local hunter and ask if he has seen any trace of the monster. Once you get to the local hunters shack and talk to him he tells you that he'll tell you what he knows for a silver bow and 10 arrows. Once you give him the bow and arrows he will tell you that he saw the creature behind Lord Drad's Estate to the south. Once you get there you encounter three Death Cult Necromancers who try to kill you. Once you kill them all you go back to the elder and he says that is to be expected, and that he just finished reading about a cullt of necromancers intent on bringing their Lord of Death to life again and to wreak havok on tamriel once again, but to do so they would need five things the Book of Grief, Blood of the Ancient, The Demon Claw (Sword), Eye of Puresight, and the Amulet of Gods-Blood. And if they get all of those things the death god (The Unnamed One) will return and devour the souls of all living in tamriel and only his generals will survive to lead his undead-army and conquer the world.

 

Well thats all i am going to say at the moment (have more ideas but they are not linked in the story yet)

 

Side-Quest Ideas:

 

The Beasts Lair:

 

Talk to Penn Windragon about his brother Andrew Windragon (The dead man in the cave) and he will tell you to go to the local hunter and ask him if he knows where the Black monsters lair is, and the hunter will tell you that the deer population around his shack is dwindling and for 10 venison he will tell you. Once you pay him he will tell you where the beasts lair is. Once you get there, find the monster, kill it and bring back one of its horns he will give you a unique blade (The Dreamweaver) which was his fathers.

 

Heart of the Dragon: (Will probably use Saiden Storms akatosh mounts)

 

Talk to Kicks-His-Tail about dragons and he will tell you about a cave north of everrest where a dragon lives, the dragon killed and ate his wife and daughter and ever since then he has vowed to get his revenge, but he recently hurt his leg and cannot kill it. He wants you to go and kill it, once you do that and come back to him he will give you one-thousand gold and a powerful enchanted bow called the Soulstealing Thorn-Thrower.

 

Everrest House:

 

( If my scripting is good enough )

Talk to Anew Withers and buy land for a house, then every three days more of the house will be finished (kind of like in morrowind). After nine days your house is completly done and you must buy furnishings for it.

( if my scripting is not good enough )

Talk to Anew Withers and buy the abandoned house in Everrest for 10000 gold (its a mansion :thumbsup: ). And then buy furnishings for it.

 

The Elder's Lost Book

 

Talk to the village elder (after you finish the main quest) and he will tell you about a rare book that was recently stolen by bandits. He wants you to go and get it, when you find the bandits you can either, buy the book from them (they don't know how valuble it is) or kill them and take it. Once you give the book back to the Elder he will teach you a spell that causes the victim to turn into a loaf of bread (Yeah seriously :biggrin: )

 

Of course there will be more options when (if) all the ideas are in the game, like when you get the unique sword The Dreamweaver, and you have found the energy transfer machine (Just an Idea for the main-quest.... you take the Demon Claw sword and you can take the evil energy out of it and place in good energy into it, or just take out the bad energy and make the sword neutral.... and you can do the same with this except you can also make the blade evil)

 

If you have any suggestions or ideas or just want to tell me what you think, just leave a comment and tell me.

 

Peace, :thanks:

Sounds awesome, but you may want to consider changing the silver bow for a different one, such as daedric. It's hard to get a silver bow when you're a high level.

[Peppez]

Hmm, didn't think about that, but then again it would be even harder to find a daedric bow at a low level :thumbsup: , besides the quest isn't exactly supposed to be easy :biggrin:

 

Edit: I might be able to make it leveled.

 

Anyways I gotta get some sleep,

 

Peace, :thanks:

Alright cave is done.
