mtrLineage - Role-Playing Mod allowing to choose your Ancestors Lineage during Character Creation

This mod adds many character lineages that can be selected after character generation. As explained in the book 'Notes of Racial Phylogeny' (ignoring whether the book is correct in first place) children in Elder Scrolls universe are born with racial traits of the mother, but some traces of the father may also be present. This, or any further ancestry, is what this mod lets you to specify in your character sheet while acquiring secondary racial characteristics. If you think that some of the options are too crazy, simply ignore them. Happy roleplaying!

Mod should be safe to install mid playthrough. There is an option to manually trigger choice window in the configuration menu. Just save for

safety beforehand.

Playing this mod DOES NOT require having Merlord's Character Backgrounds installed.

Mod might not work as intended with levelling mods changing the way Attributes are calculated, particularly the Attribute penalties will probably get overwritten. It should still be playable, but this needs to be kept in mind when picking the Lineage.

Adding your own Lineages

To add your own lineages, call the addLineage() function from the interop file and pass it a lineage definition.

local function intialize(e)

local interop = require("mtrLineage.interop")

local testLineage = {

id = "test",

name = "A Test Lineage",

description = "Put a description here",

doOnce = function()

--Only called once, when the lineage is activated

mwscript.addSpell{

reference = tes3.player,

spell = "TestLineageSpell"

callback = function(data)

--This function is called when LG is activated and during onLoad event

interop.addLineage(testLineage)
