LE Better Stealing

[Megachipman]

Everyone already knows about the weird "Stolen Goods" system in Skyrim, and how every merchant everywhere knows that THAT very specific apple you have is Stolen property (yet dont turn you in to the guards)

 

A neat mod that I would like be like, have it so it keeps track of where you stole something, so if you stole something in Riften, a merchant in Solitude won't blink an eye if you try to sell it to them. I mean, how would they know that was Little Orphan Timmy's apple you took from his room as he slept?

 

So basically I want a mod that will allow you to sell stolen goods outside of the city you stole it from.

 

Just having that would make me happy with the mod, but other things that could be added that would be nice:

-How far you have to travel to sell a stolen good depends on how valuable it is, examples:

 

• Stealing really cheap like a fork: A different merchant than the one you stole it from
• Something more expensive like armor: Would have to at least leave the city, could still sell to smaller villages in the hold.
• Something very expensive, like gems, jewels, and things from the jarl themselves: You'd have to leave the hold itself and sell it someplace else.

 

-Being able to attempt to sell stolen goods anyway:

 

Have like a random chance based on your speechcraft skill for a merchant to accept buying your stolen goods. Say if you steal a fancy breastplate from the armorer, and tried to sell it to the nearby general goods store. You would have a random chance for the shopkeep to just shrug and buy it (chance for them to buy it could possibly increase based on how many other things you sold before hand, because it could get lost in the horde of stuff). Or a chance for the merchant to realise it's stolen and call the guards, and you'd get a bounty (probably in the like 100 - 200 gold range, penalty for both stealing and trying to sell stolen goods.)

 

It would be nice to be able to freelance thief for a bit before joining the thieves guild
