A Mod for Mental Illness


Tyaasei

Recommended Posts

As stated in the title, I think it would be interesting to have a mod like this to add more realism into the game. There is, after all, a daedric god of madness.They could progress slowly, like vampirism in the Dawnguard DLC, and slowly have more and more of an effect. There could be certain potions you have to take to alleviate some symptoms, and certain acts or events could cause them to get worse or better or even be the cause of certain illnesses. For instance, excessive killing of unhostile NPC's could cause psychopathy or psychotic behavior to develop. Or seeing an ally killed could cause depression.

 

Just some thoughts...

I really like this idea - a kind of iNeed type mod where you can end up having to fulfil a blood lust, or are restricted in your abilities by grief etc, etc ... it is a really unique concept, I personally haven't seen anything like it. I really hope a talented modder is inspired by this!!!

I think this idea could work. You could have a full-blown insanity mod built into that, when you had a high psychotic level. You could change the sky into something quite apocalyptic, and replace the NPCs with rabbits, chickens and the like. Having Draugr replaced by someone like Nazeem would be good, the implication being that they have somehow managed to haunt the poor Dragonborn's delusional mind :D

I am in the process of making a mod with over 10 common mental disorders, their effects and urges, ways to alleviate the effects and urges, and cures (I am making them as realistic as possible, although in real life these disorders do not have cures yet, just medications) for the various disorders in mini-quests. I will also eventually add a few full quests to help the added NPCs of Skyrim afflicted with these mental disorders by going through their respective quest (one for each mental disorder) and helping them find the cure. This mod may take months but I am a part time college student and have a lot of free time. If you are interested in voice-acting, please contact me at [email protected].
