Skyrim - An Idea for a Major Conversion [ Alagaësia ]


MCBM

Recommended Posts

As a huge fan of the Eragon series, I was planning to create a quest involving the riders sword. Here is the current plot: It isn't like you the full eragon universe, but it takes Eragon plot lines and puts them in to skyrim.

 

1: You come across an elf wandering around outside of Riften.

2: You approach him, and his name is Rhunon, and you ask him what he is doing

3: He tells you that he is wandering around looking for brightsteel. He tells you about how it is used to create the Rider's sword, which is extremely effective on dragons and capable of taking them down in mere hits.

4: You tell him that you will keep your eye out if you find any. He suggests checking Riften.

5: You enter a empty house in Riften with a trapdoor on the floor

6: Before you enter, a courier runs up to you and hands you a letter: "When the time comes and you need a weapon, look under the roots of the Menoa tree." signed by "a friend".

7: You go through the trapdoor and run through a small dungeon. You approach a fight with a Dragon Priest, and after defeating it walk right into a room with a dragon that is not damageable with your weapon.

8: You just barely escape through a crevice in the ceiling which brings you into the forests outside of Riften

9: You see a big tree, the Menoa Tree, and have a conversation with it.

10: It gives you a BrightSteel Ore if you shout Fire Breath on it.

11: You find Rhunon again and he tells you to follow him to his smith.

12: He tells you that he refuses to make the sword, and tells you a short tale about the past mixing Tamriel lore with some Eragon lore

13: He tells you how to create the sword

14: You go to the forge and create the sword, in the color of the dragon in the dungeon

15: You go back into the dungeon, and the sword allows you to kill the dragon. Upon defeating it, your sword gains a point of damage.

16: Reward is the Dragon Sword, which gains a point in damage whenever you kill a dragon with it.

 

I love eragon though, and would love to tweak this to fit your mod or help you with anything that I can do in my reach. I really hope this turns out as epic as it is planned.

Great idea, but i reckon that would totally rock as a mod on its own but wouldn't really fit with this.

we should all put something like mine in our signiture. by the way check my name idea

 

Damn, you are right. I forgot the signatures xD Ok everyone, try to add it to your sigs if you can!

 

And yes your name is good :) I can imagine Eragon naming it this way.

 

It's crazy how fast the comments are coming lol, I come back after like 4 hours and there's 5 extra pages to read.

 

@MCBM: I know that Zar'roc doesn't start on fire, what I meant was that if we are able to do it with our characters, it would take away from the uniqueness of Eragon's sword :tongue: . However, I can't remember why exactly he was able to do it, I need to read the third book again. Maybe our characters can go through a similar process to allow that to happen.

 

Another thing I was thinking of is how the dragon will age. I believe earlier I read that it would grow as time went on. I didn't know if this means real time or game time. The problem with it being game time would be that somebody could just rest repeatedly and get their dragon huge in no time. I was thinking it could grow/age as the character levels up (but power-leveling could cause a similar problem). Once again, just throwing some ideas out there, I don't know what is/isn't possible, or what's best lol.

 

I know, right? :D Yesterday moring ( like 8:00 am GMT + 0 ) there were like 5 pages in this thread !!

 

Eragon's sword just happened to light up on fire whenever he called its name. It was random and not intentional :P

 

Well I agree that some people could rest continusously to advance their dragon though consider this : waiting for a day takes like 24 seconds, almost half a minute. I doubt anyone would wait for whole in game months just to make the dragon big. Also, there is power-leveling so theres no evading whoever wants ( and mean like WANTS ) their dragon to get big. But your idea is good on how the dragon will age nevertheless. Thanks :)

That is a good idea but as brunnwag said it wouldn't fit here. We are planning to create Alagaësia, so this mod will not be set on Tamriel. However, you might be interrested in THIS mod, since it will take place in Skyrim.

and it also states that once the two have hatched, they should be sent to eragon and he would send two more eggs.

I would certainly like not to mess up CP's idea.

 

Sure I said that there would be like 5-6 Dragon Riders too. It will not be like a year after. More like 8-10 years after Inheritance.

 

 

Roran will have built his castle, Arya will be well into her new title, Nasuada will be busy getting the Kingdom into shape while arguing with Orrin etc etc

 

 

I think that there would be enough time for Eragon to gather up 5 people and Murthagh to help in their tutorship as well ( Murtagh has returned )

 

 

 

***

Also i think about making a forum of that mod/conversion ;) it should have one ;)

Why only 8-10 years? We can even place it after 100 years after, and Eragon still can be alive, and it will look more naturally to gain moredragon riders, reunite the old ones etc.

i am not certain bout the dying mother dragon, not sure why. just doesnt seem right for Inheritance cycle. Then the young dragon would be unbound and how will a wild dragon be dying (yes it could be found later in the main quest)it wont be natural, lives forever.wont be too big, bout 10 years old. Plus it seems a little far fetched (wild dragons dont speak in language, but emotions, images ect...)

 

She could die of being hurt or something like that, and can send you a imaginated picture of you taking the egg, and you would feel like you want the egg to be saved(she send you emotion), and in that moment when you agree, she will cast spell, that allow the egg to hatch for a rider(dragons can use magic, like saphira repaired that big jewel in farthen dur) instead of saying "thank you, i am glad, because my child won't be alone, because you will take care of it, and become its rider, so you won't leave it anyways" ;)

we should maybe try to find some proffessional modders to help. They can then tell us whats availible to do and stuff. i dont know where to look though.

 

The modders are all here. If they want to help we would be grateful :)

100 years is a bit extreme :) No I think a decade would be perfect....and there are not other Dragon Riders...Eldunari.

And the forum will be made soon :)

And I agree about the dragon idea :)

I have made a forum for the mod, so if you think it's good and not unnecessary, we can move there ;)

if you think it is stupid to have a forum, then tell me, and i will delete it ;)

Oh, you made one. We can move there for the time being but I'm gonna make a proper one later. Same forum as this one.
