Here’s a little misc quest I put together. Can be implemented into any city/town with a Tavern where bards may perform. NOTE: Ven Senthi can be replaced with an NPC who already has a home in one of the desired citys, as Ven Senthi requires his own home interior for the quest.

The Bards Rival

[NPC’s] –  Bal Drelo and Ven Senthi

[Location} – Any city with a Tavern

[Interiors] – Ven Senthi’s Home and Tavern

{Description} – You meet Bal Drelo, a dunmer bard in one of the local taverns. You begin to talk to him, and he will bring up his Rival, Ven Senthi. Ven is also a Dunmer bard, and the two see each other as Rivals. Bal Drelo will bring up the fact that his rival, Ven Senthi, will be performing late night soon, and brings up a plan to sabotage Ven's performance. Bal Drelo is aware that his Rival, Ven Senthi, takes skooma to stay awake for late performances. Bal asks the player to go into Ven Senthi's home, find his skooma stash, and steal it. The player now has a choice to:

    [Choice 1:  Steal Ven’s Skooma]:  The player can go into Ven Senthi's home, find his skooma, and steal it. After this is done, the player will speak to Bal Drelo. Bal will thank the player, and tells them to see him after a day (24 in game hours). After 24 hours, Bal Drelo will tell the player that Ven's performance was awful, as Ven was too tired. Bal Drelo is excited his plan worked, and rewards the player one of his lutes, and the player will be able to sell it for a reasonable sum of gold. You can ask NPC's in the tavern about Ven Senthi, and some will mention his lousy performance that night.
                   {Quest End}

   [Choice 2:  Kill Ven Senthi]:   If the player, for some reason, happens to kill Ven Senthi, the quest will fail. Talking to Bal Drelo will lead him to be angry at the player. Bal never wanted Ven dead, even if they were rivals in their work. Upon asking some NPC's in the tavern about Ven, they will tell you of his death.
                   {Quest End}

  [Choice 3: Tell Ven Senthi of Bal’s plan] – The player can choose to tell Ven Senthi of Bal's plan. Upon telling Ven, he thanks you for telling him, and will reward the player an enchanted amulet. The player can now speak to Bal, and either:

(1) – Lie to Bal, and say you stole Ven's Skooma: Bal will then thank you, and tell the player to wait 24 hours, then speak to him again. Upon speaking to Bal after a day, Bal will tell the player that the plan failed, and he won't give you anything, and will be quite mad. Disposition will lower.
      {Quest End}

(2) – Tell Bal that you told Ven Senthi: When the player tells Bal, he will curse, and be mad at the player. Bal's disposition will lower greatly.
      {Quest End}

This one is very similar to the Battle of the Bards (great minds think alike?) For this reason, I won’t be transferring it to the asset browser however. Please keep writing!
