📋 About This Mod
This mod adds a total of 21 lore-friendly quests to the Thieves Guild. These missions become available starting at the Rank Mastermind (8), although they can also be undertaken by a Masterthief.
All the quests have been designed and written by me.
The quests typically focus on lesser-known aspects of the canon lore, but none of them attempt to provide a personal interpretation. Unresolved "lore" elements addressed in these missions (such as the possible romance between Bolvyn Venim and Fathasa Llethri) remain unsolved; it's not my - or anyone's - business to provide answers.
Crazy Legs Farantamo, Jim Stacey's companion, offers these missions in the back room of the bookshop in the Vivec canals. To undertake them, simply engage in dialogue using the new topic "Jobs for the Thieves Guild."
