Seeking Writers For Ambitious Mod Project

Recommended Posts

So I've begun a modding project that's quickly gotten beyond what I can reasonably accomplish on my own in scope and scale, so I've decided to open it up to the community, as I feel not only will it go quicker and actually reach its goals, but end up being of a higher quality than if I just did it alone. Many minds and all that.

 

Here's the basic premise: A new NPC at the Bard's College in Solitude will attempt to restore the ruined books you find in ruins and whatnot (not the burned books, however), for a small fee of course. These will be all new texts, some complete, some fragmentary, dating primarily from the early First Era, and shedding light on the Nords who lived at that time and whose tombs and catacombs you spend an inordinate amount of time in.

 

Some of these books will be skill books, and all will be worth more than the initial investment in having them restored (though there is a chance of a book being in too poor quality to restore) so the player can always sell them for profit. There's some possible additional functionality I've got in mind too, but the main thing is the books.

 

I'm not making this to provide the player a new way to make money and skill books, however, I'm making this for player like me, who read the books you find in-game and take great pleasure in it.

 

So here's the deal: I've got a substantial amount of the mod's basics planned out and I realized to really do it proper, at least in my mind, would require nearly 70,000 words of new material being written. You can see why I need help.

 

Thus, I'm looking for writers to help with the workload. I'm not too picky but the following are traits that give you bonus points:

- Familiarity with Elder Scrolls lore

- Experience with world building and/or conlanging

- Knowledge of Dovahzul

- Interest or background in real world history and/or anthropology

 

If you're at all interested, reply here and we can talk details. Also it's worth noting that while this post got long winded, it's still just a brief overview of what I've got in mind.

 

Thanks,

Exo

 

EDIT: Also worth mentioning is you aren't required to commit to anything, there's no minimum amount of work you're required to do, etc.
