Akuls Showcase

Post by Akul »

Ludovic advised me before few days to make a showcase where I shall show quests I make for this mod.

So, here is an simple quest. To start it, walk a bit south of Gah Sadrith until you meet a nord who'll give you a quest. There are two ways to complete this quest and (perhaps) requires a bit of thinking in the end.

Hope you enjoj it :)

Next quest I will make will be a bit larger and will be a bit unique.

This quest will be an artifact search quest, but not in the way that some character searchs for it while you get clues for him, but rather that YOU will search for it.
You will listen to conversations, summon daedra, explore dungeons, translate a daedric text and such things.

Any comments or advices?

Looking forward to it though ;)

Before I make the second quest, I'll need to change some dialogue in this one. The last dialogue in the quest I find especialy lame and should certanly improve it because it gives me nightmares!

Every good quest needs a good backstory. Don't fear to tell me about any lore-uncorrectnes or grammar errors:

The Attack on Mornhold, few hours before the Tribunal threw Mehrunes Dagon back into Oblivion:

Raiden Ksain was relaxing on foot after the last battle with the clanfear. His companions were in the same mood.
"I never tought the clanfear to be that... anoying." the ever-proud ordinator told.
"Life is full of suprises." Raiden replied.
"Perhaps..." a cowardly mercenary started "...perhaps we should flee!"
"Flee?" Raiden asked.
"Yes, flee! I mean... why should we sacrifice our lives to this losing cause? Everyone knows that Almalexia can't win..."
"The Holy Tribunal can beat anyone!" the ordinator yelled and took his blade out.
"I...I...I was just giving a suggestion!" the coward defended.
"A Cowardly suggestion!" Raiden told with disguist. "Next time find a safer job! Now lets go!"
The men followed his orders, even that cowardly dunmer. Even tough Raiden was a Nord and dunmer never listened to a Nord.
Raiden Ksain, born under the name Laron Mouse-Mouth, came to Morrowind in seeking that what his people like the most: adventure. And he found quite a few adventures here and dunmer respected him. And he respected theme.
***
"Now, this was a good fight!" Raiden yelled after they killed a band of Dremoras.
"I pray to Divine..."
"Please don't!" the cowardly mercenary yelled, but Ordinatore continued
"... Tribunal that their souls have a long and painful path back to Deadlands!"
"Nice. Will you now start kneeling as well?" Mercenary started provoking, but the ordinator just looked at Raiden and peacefuly replied:
"You are cunning for such a small bite." Raiden looked at the mercenary to see what he will say.
"You too!" a dread voice spoke and the ordinator screamed. Raiden turned his attention back to the ordinator and saw a Dremora Lord and a beheaded corpse under his legs.
"You bast..." Raiden was going to take his blade, but the mercenary took it with a lighting speed and threw it to Dremora.
"Good Hunting!" he told and ran away.
"I'll get you for this!" Raiden yelled and looked back at the Dremora Lord.
The Dremora was now holding his blade, the Greymouth, the blade his father forged.
On the other side, Raiden was armless.
"I think I can beat you!" Raiden laughed
"Yeah, right!" The Dremora started. "But lets first introduce ourselves! I am Volakh, the Dremora Lord."
"And I am Raiden Ksain, the Nord from the west!" he answered. "Shall we do the fighting now?"
"If you want to die so early... why not?!"
***
He jumped away from Volakhs attack as far as he could, but the blades power still touched him and has weakaned him.
"Darn!" Raiden yelled and started runing backwards to escape the blade's power.
"Alredy a coward?" Volakh laughed.
"No, I am just not stupid enough!"
Raiden wanted to make Dremora go away from from the ordinators corpse because that was the only way to get his weapon.
Unfortunately, Volakh was smarter. He took the blade and trew it into the rubble. A mistake because the Greymouth wasn't the only weapon Raiden had. He took a poisoned dart from his backpack and trew it into Volakh's backs.
"AAAH!" Volakh yelled. "You cowards!"
And while he was in pain, Raiden run to him and started hitting him with his hands. He has proven that weapons aren't the only usable weapon on the battlefield. Few enchanted glows can do a trick as well.
But, unfortunately, Volakh hit Raiden with three hits. They just scarred him, but the weapon made Raiden fall on the floor and Volakh to raise again.
***
Volak was standing beyond the body of the Nord. He took the blade into the air... and then Dagon yelled as he was falling back into Oblivion. But that didn't stop Volakh to kill Raiden.
***
This was written by Hlaalo, the cowardly mercenary just before he commited a suicide in order to keep Raiden immortal.

This is a hint of what to except in my next quest ;)
And a book that starts the quest.

About your trollhunt quest:
-Your plugin is dirty, it modifies some exterior cells for no apparent reason. (No changes, just marked as changed)
-Your dialogue contains grammatical/spelling errors
-Eldale mentions "chinmer"; I assume you meant Chimer?
-Aron's greeting is rather strange, it just doesn't seem like something anybody would say
-The troll just stands outside Gah Sadrith, standing in exactly the same spot; rather odd, if you ask me
-The troll refuses to fight back against Aron
-Having two Elos Uvelens is very strange, it makes the player unlikely to go downstairs to find the other one.
-Elos Uvelen doesn't react to the player stealing the notes
-You will need to fix these, as the quest seems to be impossible to finish as it is. (Aron just keeps shooting the troll forever)

Just tought that I should reply here because I didn't post anything for a long time now.

The reason is a cliche one... THE REAL LIFE!
The school is at end and I need to give all that is in my power to get the best grades possible.

But back onto the quest, I have decided to completely change it because I didn't like the story enough and the ways how to complete it.
The new version shall have a troll much farther from Gah Sadrith, on the mainland actualy!
There will be at least three ways to complete it: two via quests and one with Alchemy and Enchant skill... if my plan works that is :P

Cheers!
