📋 About This Mod

Description:

I recently switched to Realm of Lorkhan as my alternate start mod of choice and changed a few things to fit my liking.

  • []The Hall is now owned by one of the Vendors there, so you don't get any freebies inside there anymore

    []I changed almost every one of the roots so it's easier to walk on them

    []Gloomshade now got a poison vendor who also buys stolen goods

    []You can contract Sanguinare Vampiris without fighting the vampire as that fight can get pretty rough with a combination of enemy mods.

    []Some Shards are removed (I didn't like the option to start in Blackreach + i needed the space)

    []New Separate Realm of the Hunt to start as a Werewolf or a Vampire

    []Almost every item counts as stealing except from the chests

    []Removed all standing stones except the 3 guardian stones since I use my other mod with it (optional file to revert that change again)

    The option to start as a werewolf only works with mods that add a way to become one without the companions. Currently i only added patches for Canis Hysteria, Growl and Nightmare Night. If you know other werewolf mods that allow this (Manbeast is not one of them) let me know and I can make a patch.

    There are some further minor changes as well, like nerfed loot in chests.

    I no longer use Realm of Lorkhan as alternate start mod myself, so updates to it won't happen or only happen slow when i have enough time

    Freebies Restored file details:

    reverts changes to ownership, install after main file.

    i hope i caught all cases of ownership in my mod

    this file has intended itms so the ownership is the same as with the original Realms of Lorkhan

    restores all the standing stones and the teleports except Blackreach cause it's in the way of my Realm of the Hunt

    please do not clean it

    Credits:

    All credits go to TwinCrown for their great Realm of Lorkhan mod, especially the last update.
