Alternative Start - The Dragonborn

So as someone who likes playing lots of varying characters it can get tiring/frustrating going through the intro quests up to having the full Unrelenting Force as this is generally how far I always take my characters despite what other quests I want to take on. Unrelenting force is too handy not to get especially for melee characters. However as someone who doesn't like fast travelling, all the walking between areas plus the two climbs up to the grey beards takes an awefully long time.

 

I'd love it if someone had a mod or knew how to make a mod that basically started you at the Greybeards with all the game considering all quests to the point where you've given them back the Horn and received Unrelenting force maxed out. Perhaps including a journal of your 'adventures so far' which just summarizes the events you would have missed and once read initiates the next quest in the main quest (which I believe is the Thalmor party with Delphine)

 

I'd make this myself but I honestly have no clue how to use the editor to even edit items let alone a chunk of the quest line.

Download a save file that has the quests completed that you want. Or just use one of your own save files from that point. Open console, change characters face race and whatever else you want, continue playing.

Is it possible to use the console to completely wipe your characters levels, learned skills and inventory? My one character is almost done with the horn quests and is almost level 22, I don't want to start new characters at this level :/

 

Edit: Sorry if this is a dumb question but I really don't use the console much :x

Yea, it is possible. This website for example lists every command necessary. What it won´t let you do (without the risk of breaking your save game) is restarting the quest to kill the dragon at whiterun tower, e.g. you´ll still own breezehome and have Lydia as a housecarl.

 

The one possibility to make a "sort of" greybeard savegame starting with lvl 1 and horn of windcaller completed would be to cheat yourself through the first part of the main quest: use "kill"-command on all eney actors and don´t let them hit you, don´t cast any spells, don´t craft anything,...

That way no skills will level up.

I too have spent quite some time thinking of how a greybeard game start could be implemented in a way that does not outrightly contradict lore or breaks important game mechanics.

One day I gave up thinking "F**k it if there was a lore-friendly, not-game-breaking way, Arthmoor would have implemented it by now."

There was a Morrowind mod that made Jiub the Nerevarene but that could be to take it a big far. I would like an option to start with the main quest finished an a question about what side you supported in the war or if you where neutral. Add a full unrelenting force shout an place the Blades at Skyhaven we would be all set.
