[Lord Valarian]

I need people to look over this document. Point out anything unclear or errors. This is final update for my mod. Thanks. Spacing will be fixed later. Armor is plain glass. If I think of something better, i'll change it before the release.

Date:

Category: Quests and Adventures

Upgrade info 1.00:

Right-hand alchemy sorter has been removed. The treasure chest
sorts all light armor into left set of chests and some items on the
right side. To update chest name use the temp file, "ALVU_update_names". Activate, save and then remove.

After
becoming Archmage, you play small quest with a rich story that leaves
many questions and leads to a greater mystery. At the end, you have a
sanctuary room for your travels.

Notes, this is not a house
mod. You teleport in, refuel, reload, get/drop off items, and
teleport out. Also, make sure you remove from the game the "Filled
Colossal Soul Gem". Hannibal Traven needs to gone. If you don't,
you'll have story conflict.

You can rename any chest with
control-activate then open chest. The quest starts in the Archmage's
Quarters.

The Dragon Swords, Level 35+, are handy swords that make combat less
boring and more dynamic. You have five swords for many possible
enemies. Each sword does criticals on an enemy based on cvars with
bonus for one type. Also, there is a random chance that you will
knock an enemy back. The cvars will allow you balance them as you want.

Firestorm
- undead

Icestorm
- goblins

Lightningstorm
- daedra

Wraith
- bandits

Vampire
- no bonus

The armor, level 35+, makes using companions much easier and less
hassle. It drains their magicka to repair armor and weapons. Then
recharges any weapons in their inventory. You can use the armor, but it's meant for companions. It's been throughly tested and balanced.

You can find both in the treasure chest. This is the end of this mod.
When I get to skyrim, i'll convert it. Until then, have fun.

General
Modding Info:
This uses a sorting method for containers and saving
name changes to items you make while playing, some great GFX to
explore too. There is a lot you can use here. Necromancer mods, i'll
can send you my ideas for dark form of the ritual and how to balance
it. Everything used must be given credit in docs.

I'll
respond to constructive criticism (good and why, bad and why), if I
have the time.

Incompatibility
===============

Any
mod that brings Hannibal Traven back will cause story conflicts.
Changes to Rominus Polus might cause mod conflicts. Lore might
conflict with other mods. Structural changes to the Arcane University
might cause mod conflicts.


Known Issues or
Bugs
====================
Hannibal Traven AI has issues. He
should approach you, but doesn't. You need to move to him to trigger
the dialog. I don't how to make him do what is described in the
journal entry. He should teleport out, but won't cast
spells.

Dialog, lore, and lightning needs polishing. Some
balancing needed for teleporting.

Chestname updating has
issues. After you rename a chest, you need to open the chest. A few
seconds later, it will update. If you teleport out then teleport in,
the chest will update. I can't trigger it to open a chest after
renaming without causing other problems.
