Features

Tons (2400+ lines and counting) of new dialogue and idles for Maven, Elenwen and a little bit for Ingun.

Full-fledged follower functionality akin to Fallout 4. They react to your quests, actions, places you visit, current time of the day, the gear you're (not) wearing, weather, enemies, other NPCs and more!

Custom affinity system: woo them with flirting and gifts, win their hearts and take them on an adventure with you!

New ways to start, play and complete good ol' vanilla quests, such as "Caught Red-Handed", "Promises to Keep", "Missing in Action", "Heart of Dibella" and more!

New fully voiced alternate lines of "redeemed" Maven between her and Riften NPCs, as well as the entirety of Thieves Guild questline.

New fully voiced alternate lines for essential mods like "Thieves Guild For Good Guys - Taking Care of Business REDUX" and "Goldenglow is Yours".

New / alternate dialogue, reaction idles and scenes for supporting characters, such as: Hemming, Maul, Sibbi, Ri'saad, Haelga, Svana, Madesi, Mjoll, Brynjolf, Mercer Frey, Ondolemar, Senna, Hamal, Elisif, generic guards and beast race characters (khajiit and argonian).

New personal quest of Maven: bring a new spark in a mundane life of "the most dangerous woman in The Rift", find out what really happened to her late husband and acquire a fine piece of a "forbidden" literature.

New personal quest of Elenwen: save her from ongoing assassination plot - gain an unexpected ally and take on a sweet roll revenge against Thalmor. Infiltrate the Northwatch Keep with her help in "Missing in Action", confront the perpetrators when they least expect it! Gain support of key figures in the process, such as Elisif and Ulfric... (Work-in-progress)

New personal quest of Ingun: take her on adventure across Tamriel, visit Blackreach and Eldergleam Sanctuary for some heartwarming reactions. She's an aspiring alchemist, after all. (Work-in-progress)

Beast Races Addon:

Takes full advantage of main mod's affinity system. Allowing you to seduce, romance or turn any generic female khajiit / argonian NPC into a follower, as long as they're using their respective voicebanks.

Implements fully voiced steward lines for both male and female khajiit / argonian voicebanks, letting you hire the most of such NPCs as stewards.

New custom lines for Shahvee and Deeja (as long as she survives the "Light's Out!", thanks to Save The Icerunner mod).

If you spared Deeja (or avoided killing her altogether), you can actually befriend her and learn her backstory.
