LE Mod that adds Mage's Familiars

[jd44]

I have an idea for a mod that adds Familiars to the game. This is something that no one has done but would be fun for those who play mages. My idea is as follows.

Once you finish the quest “Under Saarthal” for the Mage College, Tolfdir give you a spell book “Call Familiar”. When you cast the spell a screen pops up having you choose between two familiars (once chosen it is permanent), a Sprite, or a Quasit.

Both Familiars:

Use the animal slot

Have a magic pool that is equal to 100+1 per level of its master.

Are not targetable.

The Sprite will hover over your head (like Candlelight) and will be a tiny humanoid with butterfly wings and leafy garb. When you enter dark areas it will turn into a ball of light (the Candlelight spell) and provide light for you.

The Sprite knows the “Heal Other” spell and will use it on the PC or followers when their HP drops below 75% of their health. It can equip 2 rings. When you cast “Call Familiar” when the Sprite is already called it will open a menu with the option to equip a ring and an option to learn new restoration spells. The ring slot allow you to equip any ring in your inventory to one of the slots or switch out rings if you want. The option to learn new restoration spells will allow you to “teach” the sprite any restoration spell that you have a spell book for in your inventory. The Sprite also gains perks as the PC levels as listed below.

20: Apprentice Restoration, Recovery 1

30: Adept Restoration, Respite

40: Expert Restoration, Recovery 2

50: Master Restoration,

The Quasit is a small devilish looking creature that sits on your shoulder. He will automatically cast Transmute on your inventory when you have enough ore in it to do so. He will cast Oakflesh on you when ever battle starts, and will do so when the spell wares off if it has enough magic to do so. When you cast “Call Familiar” when the Quasit is already called it will open a menu option that allows you to command the Quasit to “Transmute” weapons and armor in your inventory. When you select this option, it will show a list of weapons and armor from your inventory, you move the ones you would like to “transmute” to “his” inventory and confirm. 50% (round down; minimum 1) of their base materials will be added to your inventory.

I do not know how to mod, but if this is something that people would like, then I open it up for any moder to make this a reality.
