gandie Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 so today while i was on break at work i was thinking about skyrim, more specifically modding skyrim. If i were good at coding, and computering in general i would do this myself, but alas, i am not. so im asking someone, anyone please create the mod that i imagined today while my mind was lost in the skyrim universe. My idea was to add the Christian God to skyrim. Now please dont call me insane, i know its not lore friendly, and i know it would be insane. But if someone made this mod for me, i would actualy purchase a second copy of skyrim for the computer (i use the ps3 version). I have several ideas for what to actually put into the mod, and im not very good with words so please ask if u would like me to elaborate. - Add cross alters in various places in skyrim- Cross alters give the player a "Resurrection" ability, so that if in some case they die, their souls rise from their bodys as a ghost/spirit/ethereal character. - To regain their earthly bodies the character would have to travel to one of the cross alters and pray.- While in the afterlife there appear other ethereal beings, high level angels and demons, who are constantly fighting each other. these two forces could appear in hordes or in 1-1 combat. - The demons would constantly be trying to kill you , and the angels protecting u.- addition of "The Holy Bible" book, or set of books to the game- A quest line where you are asked by the archangel Gabriele to help spread the "Word of God"- the quests would consist of -gathering followers (similar to the blades) -fighting high level demons/dedra -collecting the different books of the bible-adding a chapel house, where Gabriele, followers, books, sleeping quarters, unique weapons and armor, and other things in every other skyrim house. i know this is a massive project to undergo, but i think it would be so cool. other ideas are more then welcome. but if anyone does create this mod for me please keep it wholesome and true. it would be a shame if someone created this mod to insult or pervade Christianity.

Th3uNKn0wN Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 You do know that what you request requires a VERY good modder. Who most of them aren't bothered by this or busy with their own mods. It's immensily difficult to uphold to the ideas you gave.Somethings as the quest lines and such shouldt be a problem, but scripting and creating all that ghost-stuff, and angels and demons. Them showing up when you are a ghost. I doubt anyone is possible to do it. And if they do, I don't think they want to. But, if there's anyone out there willing to take the challenge, please do :)Is not a bad idea, just a bit over-the-top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gandie Posted March 9, 2012 Author Share Posted March 9, 2012 i knew it was a long shot, and if it is possible i hope, no i pray someone makes it. i know its insanely difficult but i challenge anyone to try it. even if its only parts of my original idea.

Chernobylite12 Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 It definitely is doable, but what is questionable is if anyone *would* do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rennn Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 (edited) One problem is that in the Bible, which I assume would be made canon, angels don't have wings or humanoid shapes unless you go with the new lore. Think more along the lines of "spinning, floating eyeball wheels akin to something from the Twilight Zone". Unless we also move Skyrim into the Renaissance or later, I think there's a secondary lore conflict even aside from the Aedra and Daedra stuff. Not to mention it'd take a seriously dedicated modder to even replicate the Bible alone. I mean, look at the Lolcat Bible. That thing was in development for quite a while, and grammar doesn't even really matter there. Then there's the question of which version you want included, as the NT is roughly 1/6 the length of the OT. On top of that, there are multiple versions of both the OT and the NT, and in some cases they carry very different messages depending both on translation and on whatever the author felt like changing.

xDarkAuthorx Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I'm not Christian, but its a good idea for a mod all the same! I could actually see it being quite fun to play and would certainly download it. Skyrims environment seems just right for it. That said, I don't think it will get made. Not because the idea isn't cool, but because its not so much a "mod" as it is an entirely different game running on Skyrims engine. It would require a HELL (pun, hehe) of a lot of work and scripts and texturing and animations and...pretty much a crap-ton of the some of the hardest stuff to do. The modders that are good enough to do it probably won't want to, especially since it really does appeal mostly to a smaller audience. Now, if anyone DID make it, that would be pretty cool. You should buy Skyrim for the PC anyway, just so you have access to all the other awesome mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gandie Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 Well as far as conflicting lore, i realize that its not compatible, but a rough clash would do fine for the fun of the mod. something like the dedra are some badda$$ demons. as far as which version to use for the bible, use the king James one. the wording is old and confusing like some of the skyrim style books. and give the angels wings just to look awesome. as far as the workload i would obviously assist wherever i could, comming up with a quest line or helping with incorporating lore. Im almost completely ignorant of computers, and fairly new to skyrim but i would love to see this mod. id do whatever i could to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twistedlimit Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I don't see all your ideas being made, but I would like to see a portal that teleports you to an alternate universe where the angels and demons are fighting. There are npcs there like Gabriel who give quests to kill some demons among other things. I am not christian and I believe in something totally different. I do see it being an interesting mod. I play a Paladin character in Skyrim and I set limitations to him like only wearing Dwarven armor since it's the only holy looking armor in the game. I think it would give greater depth to the characters in Skyrim who follow a holy path. If not angels and demons I would like to see Aedra and Daedra fighting.

RoyalPredator Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Hmm... Nice idea.It would be much better if we don't die, just become "Ghost", and with a shout we can be mortal again. This way we don't have to use "TIM" where we got our head cut-down at 50% hp, or "TGM" what ruins the whole game. Reloading sucks anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
