📋 About This Mod

Damnit, Arcadia! I don't have ataxia! I don't have the rattles! I don't even have one disease! I'm a perfectly healthy dragonborn!

Pick one of the versions below:

  • []Confidently Correct - Arcadia will only suggest you have ataxia if you do. She will only suggest you have the rattles if you do.

    []Confidently Incorrect - Arcadia will assume you have either ataxia or the rattles when you have any disease(s).

  • Mind Your Own Business - Arcadia won't greet you with any comment about ataxia or the rattles... ever!

    These plugins are ESL-flagged. Regardless, it should be trivial to merge if you want to keep that plugin count low.

    Note: If you choose option 1 and play with Beyond Skyrim: Bruma, some new diseases may trigger the rattles commentary. I have a separate fix here that corrects the new diseases so that NPCs can correctly identify specific diseases.
