MHARPHIN SINGS!
m_3mkDsCPxo
Now a follower with a quest (or is it the other way around?)
Say hello to M. H. A. R. P. H. I. N. the mechanically morose counterpart. A standalone companion with a multitude of custom dialogue. Join him on an adventure to recover his memory and solve the riddle of The Relic.
WHO IS M. H. A. R. P. H. I. N.?
Perhaps the question should be; what is Mharphin? Unfortunately, Not even he knows the answer to that question. His memory circuits are apparently a little rusty.. Is he a Dwemer Centurion? He certainly looks like one. But then again, looks aren't everything are they..
WHAT DOES HE OFFER?
Over 1000 lines of custom mechanical melancholy musings and moronic mutterings:
A rather intriguing quest, featuring; custom dungeons, puzzles and hours of entertainment, all wrapped up together by a fully voiced cast of characters.
Custom Armour
Custom Spells
Custom Music & SFX
More Easter Eggs than you can shake a stick at.
INTERACTIVE FEATURES AND THEN SOME:
Mharphin still comes equipped with all of his previous features:
Relaxation mode: Tune in with him to hear a few rather strange and bizarre transmissions. Is it music or something else?
Location Analysis. Mharphin may offer the odd insight about your current location.
Diagnostic mode: Mharphin will gladly tell you how he's feeling... So it's best not to ask.
However, as well as extra dialogue for the above features, this update also includes the following functions:
Shut up Mharphin: Toggle Mharphin's idle dialogue off or on.
Not now Mharphin!: as above, Toggle Mharphin's combat dialogue.
Too Much Magic: Toggle his magic ability
Combat Reboot: This one is rather special. With this option enabled, mharphin will quickly reboot when he reaches bleed out state (completely resolves his previous combat issues whereby he would stop fighting occasionally).
System Reboot: This won't be available until you've completed the quest. You'll understand why.
All the above abilities will not unlock until you chat with him about his funny voices. However, that conver
