Boethiah's Calling - Alternate Questline

My first thought was, he lied in every word...

Adds 70+ lines of fully voiced dialogue. All created with vanilla assets. Minimal splicing and no AI was used. Many lines are from cut content intended to be in the original Boethiah Quest but never implemented by Bethesda.

Mod Overview

This mod adds an alternate way to complete Boethiah's Calling. Now a "friend" can trick and attempt to sacrifice you to Boethiah. Of course, the player being the main character and all, miraculously will survive the attempt on their life. Regaining consciousness hours later and on the brink of death, its up to the player to then track down the deceiver and get revenge, finding clues and dealing with traps along the way.

This effectively adds an alternate way to obtain the Ebony Mail without killing one your friends.

Quest Details

This Mod adds a new Quest entitled "The Man in Black".

By default, can be started at same level as when Boeithah's Calling starts. (Customizable in FOMOD. Level 30 in Vanilla Skyrim, changeable with Timing is Everything etc.)

• []To begin, speak with the Dark Elf, Rudin Filaro, at the Braidwood Inn in Kynesgrove.[/]

  []Through dialogue, he will pose as friendly priest of Mara and will attempt to entice the player to join him on a quest.[/]

  []Only when the destination is reached, will his deception be realized. By then it will be too late.[/]

  []Barely surviving the sacrifice ritual, the player will need to find clues and deal with traps in order to hunt down the deceiver. [/]

  []When they finally reach them, they can get their revenge and obtain the Ebony Mail.[/]

• []If Boethiah deems you unfit to own the Ebony Mail, a Dark Elf named Mia will hunt you down. (See Video)[/]

  []This can occur even if you went the vanilla route of Boethiah's Calling.[/]

  []The encounter occurs randomly in the wilderness of Skyrim.[/]

If the Ebony Mail is detected in your inventory and you have less than 5 murders committed, (Based on the Murder count in Stats Tab in the in-game Menu), then Mia will hunt you down. The actual encounter will occur in the wilderness of Skyrim 2-3 weeks after the detection of the Ebony Mail occurs.

The philosophy behind the ambush is adding a thematic consequence for taking the armor if your character isn't one Boethiah would want to have it. Similar, to how she sends you off to kill her previous champion in the original quest because he was unfit to have it.
