📋 About This Mod
Get the spell from Falkreath's House of Arkay! The book is right beside the Shine of Arkay inside.
When cast, it teleports the corpse to a hidden room. This means that, if it is a respawning NPC, it will safely reset when the cell it was killed in resets.
It DOES NOT 'disable' or 'delete' the NPC.
You are rewarded with a Fortify 10 HP buff for 24 hours, and given gold.
As of Version 1. 3, the gold amount paid to you is a % of the total gold value of all items left on the body.
-
[]Total value < 100 gold = nothing.
[
]Total value 100 - 500 gold = 10% of value.[]Total value 500 - 1000 gold = 15% of value.
[]Total value 1000 - 2000 gold = 20% of value.
[]Total value 2000 - 4000 gold = 25% of value.
[]Total value > 4000 gold = 30% of value.
I've balanced the gold value returned, to make it much less than selling, but worthy for bodies you do not want to strip.
If you need to visit the hidden cell for some reason, type 'coc tcArkaysBurial' in your console.

If you like what I do, please consider subbing to my Patreon. Even with just $1 a month, together with the other players it makes difference at scale! I've found Patreon support to be a tremendous reserve of strength, and it influences me to be more 'professional' about my mods and support.
I offer $1 benefits, like having your name put in Realm of Lorkhan's "Book of Patrons". That means that tens
of thousands of other Skyrim players will have your name on their hard-drive.
Doing this lets me put more energy into my mods!
