Dark Brotherhood World

 

Introduction:

Hello and thank you very much for your time reading this topic. I am new to modding and only have experience in the basics of modding, so i'll need some help before I can actually be capable of finishing and releasing this mod. Anyways, enough of this and i'll get to a small sum of ideas of this mod that I am currently working on.

 

The New World:

In this mod, i'll be creating a new place for the new world for specifically the faction; The Dark Brotherhood, where nearly everything about this land revolves around just that faction. So far, my current idea is to make this land and island but perhaps in the future i'll change my mind and make this a continent. Before entering the land of the Dark Brotherhood, you'll only be capable of moving on past the obstacle (currently a gate) if you are blessed with one of Sithis' blessings, these blessings are: Sithis' Child and True Son of Sithis. When you accept any of these blessings, your items will be placed in a chest next to the gate excluding your armor and one of the blessings have a significant effect, the True Son of Sithis. While having this blessing, your health will be set to 1 and your melee attacks will be significantly increased to a point where you'll be one shotting everything, causing you to rely entirely on stealth, rendering most shouts and spells to become useless.

 

Blessings:

The blessings of Sithis is to enhance gameplay to change player experience. True Son of Sithis blessing is to create the game to become more of how the game was intended to be; stealthy and more difficult, it's either they die first, or you become spotted and may die first. There is no point in heavy armor because well, you cant reduce damage to be at a value below 1 when you're hit, there will be many traps all over this new world in big numbers to make it much more intresting; the player must stay careful. The blessing Son of Sithis doesn't affect stats as much, making the game sort of default still, it still removes your items into a chest but it is meant to be used as an alternative way to get past the gate.

 

Quests:

The quests I plan for this mod is to give more of a mini game feeling like it was in Oblivion, assassinating but in a fun-thrilling way! but there wouldn't be just like 10 quests, it'll be a whole world of quests just like that!

 

Storyline In Store

WARNING: SMALL VANILLA SPOILER

I wont tell TOO much, but i'll tell the idea for the intro I CURRENTLY have (it may change). After completing the Dark Brotherhood quest series, you'll receive an urgent message requiring more brothers and sisters to help an investigation case on the Dark Brotherhood (years of the brotherhood recruiting after the incident) being assigned top priority by the guard captain (sounds familiar?) and many families have been captured, so you'll need to free them.

 

Umm... Unbalanced?

-It may seem that it may not be balanced at all such as me setting all NPCs in this new world to have 1hp, but that's not what I am doing. With "True Son of Sithis" blessing, you may only one shot things with MELEE weapons, so NPCs will have a ton of health while this blessing is active (making shouts and spells useless and force you to be more into sneaking, im not sure what I should do with bows though, perhaps this is where a scripter comes in and makes a "headshot" trigger to 1 shot? ;) ).

-With the normal mode blessing "Sithis' Child", you wont have the dmg or health increase/decrease, everything will be played as if it was any other mod.

 

Outro:

That's abit of it that I am planning, as i've mentioned in the intro; I am new to modding. I have no clue how big this mod may be, no clue how long this will take for me to learn to become capable of doing this by myself so talented modders out there, you have a choice. A) If you really want this process to hurry and you're excited for this to become released, you may help me! :biggrin: or B) You can wait forever for me to learn how to properly use CK, learn how to use model creation programs such as Blender, learn how to full understand scripts, and finally do the whole thing. The choice is yours, im doing this regardless any option, by the way, this info isn't the entire mod... There will be much more! ^^
