Employment

I would like to see a mod for Jobs. I currently have jobs of skyrim installed and it works great but it makes me want something a little different.

 

My Idea

Employers in different areas of skyrim. Talking to them has the option to apply for a job. They then give you an item that allows you to use a nearby interactive item to begin working.

 

Jobs give a set rate of money per hour for continuous work. A small amount but for more immersion Working animation lasts until cancelled and awards gold at a slow but continous rate.

 

Examples:

 

Job: Lumber Worker

Item Given: Wood Working Tools

Work Area: Table Near any saw mill in a lumber yard.

Description: Basically just sawing lumber continuously awards like 5 septims an hour.

 

Job: Enchanter

Item Given: Enchanting Tools

Work Area: Interactive Object set on top of Enchanting Area like an orb.

Description: Basically just use the standard working animation and give however much gold an hour to be balanced.

 

Job: Merchant Assistant

Item Given: Trade Contracts

Work Area: A register behind shop keeps counters.

Description: Just stand behing counter "selling" wares.

 

Job: Blacksmith

Item Given: Smelting Tools

Work Area: Interactive object by smelter.

Description: Keep smelter stoked for the blacksmith.

 

It would also be cool if you could gain marginal skill increases for work done. The equivalent of one skill level per 8 hours worked.

See the mod 'professions' I think it is called. It does some of what you want, but you'll have to roleplay a lot of the functionality--ie., there isn't any scripting set up to formally allow you to work. I agree with you that it would be good to have more variation in the kinds of work to do--less involving killing, more involving creating.

I really like the idea of being a merchant. Selling stuff from your travels perhaps, have NPCs come and go, maybe with some quests involved to keep things interesting.

- Someone steals your ware, find out who the thief is.

- A client comes in and asks for a rare item, you locate it for him/her

- A competitor opens up shop and you have to compete to keep your business
