📋 About This Mod
A year of sporadic work has finally yielded my standalone follower framework for Oblivion.
I promised after my demo mod to give you this to use on any NPC that will allow you to.
Requirement:
Compatability:
This mod should work with other companion mods. However it can be buggy if you mix commands.
CM Partners also work without having to use CM as a master. Using Tes4Edit to clean any errors. (See comments.)
To Install:
Use a mod manager or extract everything to Data folder.
Spells:
Are automatically added after you escape your cell or start somewhere else.
Adding to party:
Must be a living friendly NPC with a disposition of 70 to follow. For creatures they need to be non-aggressive or tamed by another spell effect like calm or command creature. You can have a total of 3 NPC Followers + 1 Creature Follower.
Adding a member to your party will:
-
[]Receive a blessing ability (Party buff)[/]
[]Be summonable[/]
[]Ignore friendly hits[/]
[]Add them to follower faction[/]
Dismiss & Remove:
The removal of a party member will reset all stats back to their default values. Essential status and equipment will remain.
Cleared when no longer following or dead. A Notification will show.
Sharing Items:
You will be able to access follower inventories.
Summoning and Reviving:
While in the following state, followers can be summoned to you.
You have a 2 minute window to revive your fallen followers.
Options Spell:
Can switch on/off the main processing for behavior like sneaking and sandboxing AI.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Recent update (April 2025) shows active development
- Modular design means you can customize how it works
- Decent community support with 128 endorsements
⚠️ Cons
- Only 128 endorsements, so it's a niche mod with limited reach
- No mention of compatibility with other follower mods or game versions
For players who want a lightweight, modular way to manage followers and creatures without a heavy all-in-one mod. If you're into tinkering with follower behavior and settings, this could be your base. Skip if you need a fully featured follower overhaul with quests and dialogue.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a framework, check if other mods require it as a dependency—might be useful for future mods.
- Test with a simple follower first to see how the settings work before adding creatures.
- Look for a mod manager to keep track of the files, especially if you plan to add other follower mods.
