📋 About This Mod

A simple overhaul of "Scroundrel's Folly" that makes Gulum-Ei unessential from the start of the game and gives you more flexibility to complete it.

After much pondering, I have decided to stop supporting this mod.

This mod is supported again! However...

Its features and more are included in Thieves Guild Plus Plus - A Questline Overhaul.

If you use the latter mod, don't use this one.


A simple overhaul of "Scoundrel's Folly," the fourth quest of the Thieves Guild questline.

Featuring...

•  New dialogue options voiced with spliced vanilla lines

•  Gulum-Ei is now made unessential from the start of the game...

•  ... So if Gulum-Ei dies before the start of the quest, Mercer simply asks you to look for clues in the East Empire Company Warehouse

•  Tell Mercer that Gulum-Ei is dead and that you can't find any clue without him...

•  ... And possibly get expelled from the Guild because of your inaptitude

•  Completely unsequenced the quest to let you finish it however you see fit. To help the player...

•  Gulum-Ei now carries a note that points you to Brinewater Grotto

•  A "hidden" button lets you reach the end of the secret passage through Brinewater Grotto

•  Gulum-Ei's confession can now be obtained as soon as Mercer gives you your assignment

Once again, more options, more roleplay, more freedom!

•  A Change in Management - Compatible.

•  Thieves' Night On the Town - Compatible.

•  Thieves Guild Alternative Endings - Compatible.

•  Thieves Guild Requirements SE - Compatible.

•  At Your Own Pace - Thieves Guild - Compatible with 1. 01+, ignore the conflicts. Let my mod overwrite it.

•  Thieves Guild Alternate Routes - Taking Care of Business TCBM - Compatible.

•  Thieves Guild For Good Guys - Taking Care of Business Redux TCBM - Compatible.

Is this compatible with X?

If the mod you're inquiring about isn't mentioned in the Compatibility section, ask in the comments. I'll look into it.

Why did you make this mod?

The mods I post all stem from the same mad idea. What if Skyrim let you kill anybody AND responded to your choices to the best of its abilities? Well, we now have two quests where this dream is a reality.

If your goal is to let players kill anybody at any time, why rewrite a quest?

Because of how Skyrim is made, adding consequences for the death of a character at any point of the game implies rewriting all the q
