MimeArmy Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 There are a few mods out there for dispatching the Thieves Guild - but none of them have that great a level of immersion as one would hope, and I feel that something slightly more elaborate is needed. Basically - there have been found in someone in Riften's house certain pamphlets regarding the Thieves Guild (I can't remember who's) and they could very well be from an unused "Destroy the Thieves Guild" Quest.Basically - my idea is such:Mjoll contacts you, telling you that she has a plan to rid Riften of the Thieves Guild once and for all - and she tells you to go and talk to the citizen that has the pamphlets. Upon talking to them, they give you the pamphlets and tell you to give them to the other store owners in Riften. You go about doing this - and give them each a leaflet. After giving them all out, you're confronted with a Corrupt Guard who knows what you've been up to, and arrests you. However, rather than throwing you in jail, he hands you and Mjoll over top the guild - and they incarcerate you. The next part of the quest is to escape - not sure how this part'd be done, but you don't actually run into any members of the Guild. After escaping, you agree with Mjoll that the plan is too long winded and that a new change of plan is in order. She says she'll go about telling the citizens, and that you should meet her outside the Ratway at midnight. When you get there, you find that the other citizens are outside, and that they're planning to storm the Ratway. You do so - and there's a big fight between the Riften...ites... :blink: and the Guild, and after you win, you have to go to the Jarl to tell them that the Guild is no more.This could lead on to a separate quest that's dependent on your point in the Civil War Questline, involving either exiling Maven or ousting her as Jarl - however, this would probably be an even bigger undertaking, and would take a lot of work. However, with a lot of people thinking behind it, it could theoretically be quite straightforward. However, while all these ideas are well and good on paper... I have absolutely no modding skill whatsoever. So I thought that perhaps I should suggest it to you guys here at the Nexus. It's just an idea - but I could actually see it becoming quite something, if people were willing to put the work in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MimeArmy Posted April 10, 2014 Author Share Posted April 10, 2014 Addition: The aspect regarding the Jarl would be the case of having Maven ousted, say - before Season Unending or Completing the Civil War for the Imperials - there would have to be a way of keeping Laila as the Jarl. If Maven is already Jarl, there would have to be a way of having Laila reinstated as Jarl, etc, etc. In fact, it doesn't sound so complicated when explained like this, but I imagine it would still be quite an undertaking.

MimeArmy Posted April 11, 2014 Author Share Posted April 11, 2014 Something like this?http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/28880/?I saw that one - and I do think it's good... I just don't think it's immersive enough, really. But something along the same sort of lines, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MimeArmy Posted April 11, 2014 Author Share Posted April 11, 2014 (edited) NOTE: The Pamphlets are found downstairs in the Pawned Prawn, as it turns out. I'll try and get a screenshot. Edited April 11, 2014 by MimeArmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MimeArmy Posted April 11, 2014 Author Share Posted April 11, 2014 NOTE REGARDING THE JARL: The parameters for which Jarl is at which point would be as follows:If you do the quest before Season Unending, and you give Riften to the Imperials, Laila simply agrees to side with the Imperials - and then even though she's Jarl, you don't take Riften for the Imperials in the Civil War. If you storm as the Stormcloaks, she simply changes allegiance again. If you do this AFTER season Unending, you have to meet with Laila and agree for her to be reinstated as Jarl, with her changing allegiances. Then the above Civil War conditions are the same.If you do this AFTER the Civil War - you either just get rid of Maven, or you replace her with Laila - who once again, changes allegiance. Okay, so this does sound a bit more complex than I thought it would... but surely if the effort was put in it would be manageable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
