📋 About This Mod

Skyrim LE Version

At this point in time, I've lost interest in maintaining this mod and my other largest mod, Valley of Outcasts. While I did put a lot of work into them, I feel that they are fundamentally too complicated internally and many of the bugs are intrinsically tied to certain systems that would need to be rebuilt entirely for them to work properly. Additionally, I wrote VoO when I had just graduated high school and had little adult life experience, and thus the writing is very much sub-par in certain places. For this reason, I am making those mods "public domain".

Anyone who wants to may:

-Fix/tweak the mods

-Add content, or remove it

-Change content (if you'd like to get in contact with a voice actor to replace some of the crappier lines, DM me)

-Hell, you can even change character's names, since some of them aren't great

-Merge .esm files together

-Get donation points from your uploads (especially if you give me a cut)

-Make your own part 3 (lol)

You may NOT:

-Upload the mods anywhere other than the Nexus or Bethesda.net

-Put the mods behind a paywall

-Claim the mods as being entirely your own

-Make them even worse than they are now

Best of luck to those willing to undertake this offer.

After at least a thousand hours of hard work over the course of the past year, it's finally here: the sequel to Valley of Outcasts.

Now, more established as a mercenary, the Dragonborn will be hired by a very powerful figure, Martin Sennius of the Elder Council, to prevent a coven of Necromancers from obtaining an Elder Scroll. The questline will entail:

-New Vegas-esque skill checks in dialogue

-BioWare-esque conversations between the player's party members (well, BioWare-Esque as in BioWare from before 2013)

-Intense, dynamic, combat that is designed to work with the environment around it

-High-Quality worldspaces and interiors

-High regard for Elder Scrolls Lore

-Two new companions: Wilaar and Marim

-Two new sets of armor and one set of weapons. Okay, fine, I released this in a different mod last year and merged it with this one.

-New Music Tracks
