📋 About This Mod
Gives birthsign abilities to NPCs, on combat start/when a follower is activated by player
as this should cover any NPC potentially using them.
(e.g. talk with the follower once after they start following to give the follower sign abilities, AFAIK there is no event for AIfollow so I am using activate)
latest MWSE-Lua develop required

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Adds depth to NPC encounters—now they can hit you with the same birthsign tricks you use
- Lightweight and focused: does one thing and does it well
- Community-tested with 51 endorsements and 759 downloads
⚠️ Cons
- Only triggers on combat start or follower activation—won't affect NPCs outside those situations
- Requires MWSE-Lua, so you'll need to set that up first
- Last updated in March 2024—may not be compatible with future Morrowind patches
For Morrowind players who want more unpredictable combat and enjoy seeing NPCs use the same birthsign powers they have. If you're a modder looking to expand NPC behavior or a player who likes gameplay overhauls, this is a neat addition. Skip if you prefer vanilla NPCs or don't want to bother with MWSE dependencies.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the latest MWSE-Lua installed, as this mod relies on it.
- Test in a new save or after installing to ensure NPCs trigger birthsigns correctly.
- If you use other NPC behavior mods, check for conflicts—this mod may override or be overridden.
