Fragginborn Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 The town of Lamplight is now in beta and the creation of the quests is now set to begin. You can find the Lamplight mod at the Nexus and TESAlliance The Nexus:http://skyrim.nexusm...le.php?id=15548 The following is Part One of the story line of Lamplight. For those who may be interested in helping with this rather large endeavor please PM me and we'll talk. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lamplight - The Bandit Guild of Skyrim Part One The story starts with a note delivered by the Hold's Courier. The note begs the Dovahkiin to meet a certain person to learn of a great treasure stolen by the Bandits. Intrigued, you meet this person and soon learn what it is that these, otherwise moronic, bandits have obtained. It turns out to be the priceless "Great Axe of King Torygg". Though murdered by Ulfric, the King's Axe is still legally the property of his beautiful wife, Elisif and she wants it back – NOW! You also learn that other clans and guilds want this axe and are in a "bidding war" for it. It's a bidding war that involves all the nefarious factions of Skyrim killing anyone in the way to obtaining it from the bandits. The Dovahkiin must act quickly to ensure the rightful owner regains possession of it before it is lost for forever. Your quest to retain the Great Axe of Torygg begins with a trip to the bandit controlled town of Lamplight. SPOILERS! Upon reaching the entrance to the town of Lamplight, which is built within a large cavern, the Dovahkiin finds himself over-powered by the bandits and soon unconscious. The Dovahkiin slowly awakes to the sounds of bandits arguing about what to do with him. After a brief brawl, which is common among the bandits, it is decided that the most feared of all bandits must make the decision to either kill the Dovahkiin or find some other use for him/her. Dovahkiin is to meet the dangerous…Frank. Upon learning of this meeting you are knocked out from a chicken punch from behind and the scene goes black, yet again. As you awaken, again, you can hardly make out a silhouette of a person sitting in front of you. Within your cage, your hands are tied and you are kneeling before this figure. Before you can get your bearings you hear the crackling voice of an old woman screaming "Turn the lights up, you idiots!". The silhouette turns into an image of a very old, and rather cranky, woman…it's Frank! Why the bandits hold her in such high regards will only be learned as the story unfolds.

Fragginborn Posted June 16, 2012 Author Share Posted June 16, 2012 Lamplight goes Beta 2! Lamplight Beta2 is found here:http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/15548/ Lamplight is now BETA 1! http://lamplight.pcgamingnetwork.com/tmp/lamplight04-r-upload.jpg Mod web site: Lamplight Bandit Guild For information on the bandits in Skyrim read the Wikia page here: Wikia Bandit Info Always check the installation instruction as they may change frequently! Lamplight - The Bandit Guild of Skyrim/******************************//* Lamplight Beta 02 /* By: Ingenue/* And/* Brewskie (Fragginborn) /* 6/16/12 /******************************/ Always check the installation instruction as they may change frequently! Mod web site: http://lamplight.pcgamingnetwork.com For information on the bandits in Skyrim read the Wikia page here: http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Bandits_%28Skyrim%29 The premise of the mod is to create a new guild of Bandit outlaws. They are all over Skyrim but where do they come from? What's their story? I hope to answer those questions, er... at least make something up :) Lamplight - The Bandit Guild is now in beta. This means that the heart of the story and quests are now going to be created. To read the story line there will be a special post at the mod web site link above. Even though the mod is in beta nothing is finalized, including the lighting, buildings or anything else. Anything can change as it is being developed. The mod starts with a visit to the Southern entrance to the town of Lamplight where a group of bandits are at guard. The player is informed that they are not welcome and will attack of the player doesn't leave. As the player walks away he is confronted by "Scurrvy" who gives the player instructions on how to get in to Lamplight. Once the player follows the instructions given by Surrvy the bandits guarding the entrance will have disappeared. This is only temporary as there will be a new confrontation with these bandits in the next release of the mod (Beta 3) You can get in to Lamplight after the initial quest. If you would like to see most of the characters that will later be in the quests within Lamplight go in to the Tavern. BTW...you can disregard the dragon sitting on the Tavern...he will be in one of the quests later in the game. Remember, the more input I get from the people using the mod the better I can make it. So please give me your thoughts! /****************************//* Conflict With Other Mods *//****************************/ Too early to know. But unless some other mod is using the same space in Tamriel there should be no problems. /****************//* Known Issues *//****************/ Please let me know if you discover any problems. /****************//* UnInstall *//****************/ If you have an earlier version of Lamplight please delete the following folders before installing this version.Hopefully this will be the last change in installation methods.Before you uninstall please leave the interior of Lamplight Town, if your character is now there, and create a save point.
