📋 About This Mod
Description
Does what it says on the tin. I wanted a sort of roleplay-friendly way to go looking for the Cydonia snow globe, so I added a landmark book similar to the vanilla ones. The contents of the book, which I won't spoil here, were taken from the Elder Scrolls and adapted to better fit Starfield's setting. The book can be found on top of a nightstand in the Deimos Miner Quarters in Cydonia.
Book Contents (Spoilers)
It's just the lusty argonian maid. I wanted an excuse to put the lusty argonian maid in starfield. get it? lusty argonian maid -> dusty cydonian face. it popped into my head and i couldnt let it go. i thought it'd be funny. i know it's stupid. whatever. and now that i'm writing this i realize i should have released this on april fools' day. damn
Installation

]You can, of course, install this mod manually or with Vortex if either of those are your preference and you know how to.Author's Notes
Well I'm not so new to creating mods by this point, but I'd still love to hear your comments, feedback, and advice!
If you need assistance, I can try to help despite my developing understanding of modding.
I have so many ideas for Starfield and am super excited to learn how to make them all! :D
Adds a custom landmark quest book that leads you to the Face of Mars and its snow globe, which were not previously attached to any quest. A compact quest mod for Fallout 4 explorers seeking new content.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fills a gap in the base game by giving purpose to the Face of Mars and its snow globe
- Decent community support with 142 endorsements and over 33k downloads
- Recently updated in April 2024, so likely compatible with current game versions
⚠️ Cons
- Small scope—if you're expecting a sprawling questline, this isn't it
For Fallout 4 explorers who've seen everything and want a reason to revisit the Face of Mars. Also for completionists hunting snow globes who want a guided path. Skip if you're looking for major gameplay overhauls—this is a small, focused quest addition.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the base game and any DLC that includes the Face of Mars location—check your map for it before starting.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install and manage this mod easily.
- If the quest book doesn't appear, try loading a save after installing and check your inventory for the book.
