Toolset Tutorial - Simple Followers

This tutorial aims to reproduce the steps undertaken by myself to create one or more custom Followers, implementing them in a simplistic manner with relatively low scripting effort. The goals for myself were this:

• being able to start the new standalone module with a party of 4+

• have them start at level 6

• being able to swap them out through the Party Picker so we got only three at a time

• Having a custom background for the Party Picker

• Custom skill, talent and stat progression for Followers

• Specializations for Followers from the get-go like vanilla Followers

What I didn’t take into consideration much is plot interactivity. There are Follower tutorials on the DA Toolset Wiki which I think cover this particular subject much more adequately.

Additionally, I have included the XLS files I have used for my own in-progress mod's 2DAs relevant to the custom follower framework.

Hope this is of use to someone. Do point out if I messed up somewhere.

Many thanks to the members of the DA Toolset Discord server, you are all lovely inspirational people ♥
