Zebsi Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Fair enough, but do keep in mind that my NPC expansion will require Zebsirious as a master :P And yeah, I've thought that as well. I might involve them in a quest in some way. I'm not sure though. By the way, if you'd like to see my progress on the NPC project, I occasionally post updates on my blog thing. Although tbh I'm bad at routinely making updates, so they don't come very often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasperBark Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Okay it's downloaded and installed with no issue. One last thing, if there is a snow elf king or a really powerful battle-mage, do you think you can name him Lorian Alfar? Preferably around the shrine of Meridia. It's the name of my snow elf OC.

It's the name of my snow elf OC.I'm actually pretty low on Snow Elf names, so absolutely. However, all but one of the colonies are led by matriarchs, and pretty much every Snow Elf will be located within a colony, so placing him at the shrine of Meridia isn't possible. How does court wizard sound? So any spoilers? Or is it a top secret???I mean like, main storyline?There's no main questline. It's set up like Interesting NPCs almost, character-centric with the occasional quest here and there. Some NPCs have 2-3 quests to unlock them as a follower, but that's pretty much as much of a storyline that you'll get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasperBark Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Really? Okay spoilers ahead then. His backstory varies through different playerthroughs, so it can get a little complicated. Lorian was born during the merethic era, but at the time the barbarian known as Ysgramor came back to skyrim to commit genocide on the falmer, Lorian was just a young boy with only a basic understanding of restoration magic. Though he had an impressive build for someone his age it was all for show, he had no combat experience, regardless he and his family were one of the unlucky few who were forced into slavery by the atmorans to build the city known as Windhelm. He along with his family were beaten daily, and were forced to watch as others received the same abuse when they weren't the ones being tormented. However, his mother was discretely teaching him ice magic when they had the free time in preparation for their escape. Eventually the time came when Windhelm was finished and the slaves were to be executed. Lorian watched with tears in his eyes as his kin were being butchered in front of him. Unfortunately his father was fed up with this brutality and attacked the atmorans wildly, completely ignoring the plan. He was swiftly felled by none other than Ahzidal before he could do any damage. Lorian's mother then flew into a rage summoning a small blizzard that slew several atmorans and mildly injured Ahzidal. She then told Lorian to run and so he did, he didn't see it but he knew his mother died as well. He was able to escape with the commotion along with a few other snow elves. They tried to warn their leaders about the upcoming threat, but were ignored since such a thing sounded simply absurd, especially when coming from people who seemed insane. When Lorian and his group of survivors realized it was pointless they moved south toward Cyrodiil and found sanctuary there. He even learned the art of light magic from his ayleid friends, and later the art of the sword. For a time, they were safe with the ayleids who worshiped Meridia and even helped their ayleid hosts in aiding Alessia's slave rebellion, which is were he learned to wield a sword. However neither the falmer survivors nor the ayleid lords who helped the imperials did not expect the rise of the Alessian Order. Once again Lorian Alfar was forced to flee. This time he went strait to the Summerset Isle and once again found peace. Of course, as we all know, this didn't last forever as war tended to follow him. He was present when Tiber Septim unleashed the dreadful dwemer brass god onto Summerset. Lorian watched in terror as the world around him burned as he was powerless to stop it despite the immense power he gained over the years as a mage and a warrior. Lorian Alfar is a mer who has had a long history of pain, so his personality reflects that. He isn't however, as somber as one would think given his circumstances, although he isn't exactly chipper either. He no longer worships the elven gods like Auriel, as he feels betrayed by them. Instead his pantheon consists of Meridia, Malacath, and Azura. If he is called weak for using magic he will retort by asking if it is cowardly to use your own natural ability, but not cowardly to hide behind layers of metal and using a slab of said metal to fight for you.

JasperBark Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I would prefer if Lorian would only ever appear outside of kilkreath temple by the statue itself, or Azura's shrine. I wouldn't want him to conflict with the newer version of the Equinox auroran mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasperBark Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 A little more regarding his personality. He is actually a thalmor sympathizer but does not agree with some of their methods. Though Lorian will admit that he believes Talos is a god, he is strongly against Talos worship. He hates both sides of the civil war for this reason. If the dragonborn is a vampire he will warn him/her to get cured or be cut down. If you decide to make him a follower, I think it would be a good idea for him to dismiss himself if the player is doing the companions questline, or maybe if he is able to travel with the player to sovngarde, he will cast a spell on Ysgramor to destroy his soul once you enter the Hall of Valor.

JasperBark Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Zebsi I forgot to ask, are your mods that bring back the lost races going to be separate or all in one big mod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
