Deleted472477User Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 (edited) I have two characters--one an Orc, even!--who have both completed Forgemaster's Fingers. Neither has committed any crimes against the orcs. But all the orcs in all the strongholds won't have anything to do with them suddenly. I don't have any mods affecting NPCs behaviors or anything else weird going on that I'm aware of. Neither has killed any orcs except in defense against bandits. This started happening fairly recently. Google searching turns up nothing. Any advice? Or am I just not going to be able to do any quests for them or trade with them? ETA: Both have a custom follower. On a hunch I left the follower at Riverwood then went back. This time, my Orc was offered the chance to do the quest, as if she were a stranger. I have no idea why, but if it works, it works. Still would like to know any ideas anyone might have. Edited June 5, 2014 by nyxalinth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IsharaMeradin Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I have seen custom followers react negatively to all sorts of things that the player is not automatically hostile with. Take giants for example. One custom follower would attack any giant seen despite that giant being "friendly" (i.e. sharing the same road). Shoot, some custom followers can't even handle those temporary quest tag along people. It could therefore stand to reason that your follower was/is "faction incompetent" and causing immediate hostility towards the Orcs. I do not know if the Forgemaster quest is repeatable but it might be should your blood-kin status somehow be lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
