📋 About This Mod

Standing Stones Add-on:

There's a mod called Humble Beginnings, it's a simple but effective Class Mod. I also tried to use it with mod Abandoned Prison Tweaks for extra flavor, but that felt like overkill, the only real feature that's missing while using that class mod without Abandoned Prison Tweaks, is the ability to pick your Birthsign during character creation, like you can in Morrowind or Oblivion.

So I decided to just copy paste standing stones into Alternate Start's Abandoned Prison.

Pick your Enemies Add-on:

This add-on adds a bunch of activators, which when activated, make the related factions no longer hostile to the player. This is good if paired with Sidequests of Skyrim or Immersive Speechcraft, since it enabled the player more role-play options, such as living among bandits and such.

List of affected factions:

Dwarven Automatons.

Shrines Add-on:

Adds all vanilla shrines to the nearby shelf.

NEW Starting Equipment Add-on:

Adds 3 new containers which allow the player to pick some basic equipment and supplies.

List of items:

Weapons: Pickaxe, Woodchopping Axe, Hunting Bow(+25x Arrows), Iron Sword, Iron War Axe, Iron Dagger, Iron Greatsword, Iron Greataxe, Iron Warhammer.

Armor: Hide Armor Set(+Shield), Iron Armor Set(+Shield), Warlock's Robes.

Supplies: Torch(3x), Lockpicks(5x), Restorative Potions of All Types(2x), Spell Tomes(Calm, Flames, Healing, Candlelight, Spectral Wolf).
