Sebastien95 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 (edited) http://i1129.photobucket.com/albums/m513/Ogonka/Customdbmasks.png Sebastien95 and his girlfriend present you The Ultimate Mod Idea. - We already have a lot of masks in game.Exactly - so why can't the Dragonborn himself create his own one? Miraak had one, and dragon priests had plenty of them. That's why we came up with the idea. The Idea is to create a mod that allows our Last Dragonborn to obtain his own Mask. Requirements- Dragonborn DLC with finished Main Questline (Killing Miraak)- Skyrim with finished Main Questline (Killing Alduin)- Obtaining Mask of Konahrik (after collecting all the Dragon Priest Masks- Quest won’t run if Dovakhiin killed Paarthurnax The QuestIf all requirements are completed, Dragonborn will recive a letter from Greybeards. It would say that they have a special item for him, because they're impressed by deeds of the Dragonborn.After he gets into High Hrothgar Arngeir says that they - The Greybeards - have the knowledge of crafting Masks similar to Dragon Priest’s or Miraaks, and Dovahkiin has the oportunity to obtain one for himself.They ask him to bring them Dragon Bone or Dragon Scale - each of them depends of the future armor type of our mask.(Dragon Bone – Heavy, Dragon Scale – Light)After he brings required item, they ask about mask appearance - we see trade-like list on screen, and choose desired mask model, color, etc.Then they return to conversation, where Dragonborn is asked about enchantments/bonuses/powers, which will be added to the mask.When the conversation is over, Arngeir asks the Dragonborn to wait a week, because work on such powerfull artifact is really difficult even for the Greyberds.After a week The Dragonborn recives another letter, which informs him that the mask was finally created and we need to appear in High Hrothgar to collect it.And the last of all - player is asked to name the mask - there pops up a box to type a custom name of the mask. Default name is "Dovahkiin" or "Dragonborn". Quest ends here. -- By far it looks pretty simple, but it's not.To make this mod work, we need:-3D Modelist, to create custom mask models.-Ideas for custom masks (sketches, digital projects)-Person who will write this mod (dialogues, quests) All ideas to develop this thread are welcomed!

hydrosparky Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Having all Dragon Priest Masks should be a requirement. After all the Greybeards might need ideas for design and enchant? And how about adding a fetch an item (in this case a ton of different materials) quest? And a Hidden Enchantments Tome for the Greybeards to find an enchantment?

luzburg Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 What if you've killed Paarthurnax? Also google spell check just fixed my spelling for paarthy!! lol I think that the person that crafts the dragon priest mask should be Eorlund since he has the skyforge and that is capable of forging powerful artifacts.

Sebastien95 Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 @hydrosparkyYou're right, We'll change it. We don't like the second idea, because it will make the quest too long and boring, We want it new, interesting and fast, and as We said, Greybeards know how to do that, they don't need additional items. @luzburgFirst part is great, We totally forgot about it, but part about Eorlund doesn't fit to our idea, besides weapons and armor made in Skyforge have nothing to do with magical powers, that we want add to masks, they are just slightly better. Thanks for your comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edhelsereg Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I really like this idea, but based on what you have so far it doesn't feel lore-friendly to me. Somehow I don't think the Greybeards would support the Dragonborn's emulation of the Dragon Priests. The way the Dragon Priest lore is set up right now, DP masks are all artifacts of an ancient era, so maybe the quest should involve going back in time (using the wooden mask of course) and meeting the DP in the past, and making a Dragonborn mask. This idea would be a lot more ambitious and imo, a lot richer and lore-friendlier. Please keep me informed on the progress of this project, I have experience in modeling and texturing.

TalsgarDerReisende Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Nice idea but IMO involving the greybeards is ... unwise.If it were for them, the dragonborn would sit around in High Hrothgar for the whole time and learn to control his voice. I can't imagine the greybeards trying to create a mask that will be used to slain people or creatures (metaphorically spoken).Maybe Neloth could be of use since he has a very great knowledge of enchanting and maybe even time travel. If i had to name a person in skyrim that can travel through time, it would be him. Another option would be Falion in Morthal. According to himself, he has travelled very far, has seen daedra and dwemer and maybe dragon worshippers of ancient times as well.

EamonC Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Just a suggestion; it would be cool if, instead of a letter, the Greybeards shoouted 'Dovahkiin!' again. I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be too hard to implement, and it would be a lot more lore friendly, as their only contact with the outside world is when they pick up a sack of food from the courier-guy who never speaks to them. Just a thought :) Otherwise, looks awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could actually make a full new questline about becoming a Dragonpriest and stuff like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
