Maigrets Tarana The Golden Impling

MOD NAME: Maigrets Tarana The Golden Impling

AUTHOR: Maigrets

VERSION 1. 1

No changes have been made to the original mod since and there probably won't be, but one never knows. The Readme is basically the same as well except for a couple of changes to contact info and a few other small things.

DESCRIPTION: This mod adds an Impling called Tarana (meaning "music" or "musical"). Imps are known to love music and this one is no exception. Except for the fact you can't play music for it. Just imagine you can... I decided to make this companion when I read a request thread on the Tesnexus forums started by Sheralynn and myrmaad and Graewolph also showed interest. So this is for them and anyone else of course!! Request Thread (probably archived by now): http://thenexusforums.com/index.php?showtopic=86529&st=0

This companion is STRICTLY a pet and should not be taken into fights, although if unavoidable it will flee very quickly and return when it is safe. There will be a summon spell when you find the nest and there is a small starting quest and story.

The stats are the same as a vanilla Imp except for a speed increase so it can keep up, intelligence boost, lowered aggression and confidence so it will flee. Depending on your speed it may still have trouble keeping up if you run a lot, but it will catch up to you. It should defend itself if cornered as it has the leveled vanilla spells, but is unlikely as it will flee anyway.

If you don't see it when you get to it's hiding place, look up or just find the Summoning Stone for the spell. It's in plain view and if you read the little story you'll know what to look for.

I was going to change this part so that you get the spell when first activating Tarana like my other companions, but due to her location it will be an issue. Sometimes she flies (spawns) up the hill and is hard to get at and I'm not going to move her and her nest. It will also alter the quest story as the Summoning Stone is part of it.

Tarana is also Essential since I did some reading, and in Mythology Imps are usually Immortal. Anyway she's small so she needs some help. Stats may need adjustment, however I'm not going to do any more at this stage.

She is an Impling, half normal size, and I've made 2 esp files because the creature will purr when activated with one esp or will purr as an idle animation with the other esp. The idle purr is constant like the wing flapping sound, but I personally find the purr much more soothing. It
