📋 About This Mod

(Update in 8/1/2024)

New - Optional SkyPatcher file for Fjola.

It is compatible to every mod even replacer, thx to the power of SkyPatcher.

This file Need SkyPatcher to work.

If you downloaded 1. 0. 0 before:

Pls update the mod to 2. 0. 0 as 1. 0. 0 is not work as intended. Won't break your game with 1. 0. 0 tho, just not functioning.

"I owe you a debt, and I aim to repay it. We'll see each other again someday. For now, goodbye, and thanks." said by Fjola the Bandit Leader.

"Well, I guess today is the day then. Follow my ass, fight for me with your life and carry my burden without getting pay until forever." said by the Dragonborn.

"Fjola is now following you." said by the game.

"Perfect." said by the Player.

Good day, Nexus and Skyrim traveler. After exploring CK, I manage to start make some small mod to change the game little by little.

This is my third mod(the second is WIP), also my second mod after I started to mess with CK, pls be gentle ;)

Introduction

No one can owe a debt to Dragonborn and get out forever.

This mod simply make the Mistwatch bandit leader Fjola become a potential follower and potential marriage partner After you finish the quest.

I know there is already a mod call Fjola - Mistwatch Leader SSE, the mod is good, but not perfect as it edit the relationship from the beginning and facegen record which case some problem. This mod don't change Fjola' s behavior only until you finish the quest and not edit any NPC record.

So this mod did the same job by edit the quest script. Which mean it have better compatibility to those mod edit NPC like NPC replacer, plug and play with no blackface problem. Still, thank you branlof776 for his mod as it share the same thought with mine and inspire me.

Remember to download the optional file if you want her to be renamed.

Requirements

Put it anywhere under USSEP.

Optional files:

See Compatibility part.

Install mid game?

This mod won't work if you install after you finish the quest, but fine to install in mid game.

Optional files:

If you meet her before you install the esp, some state will not be changed(like level) as this is how skyrim work, NPC' s record is already write into your save.
