Mirrors
Donations
A lore friendly dream scene add-on giving the player insight on the the possible thoughts, fears
and pain Alistair suffers within, while using the Dahlialynn's Sleep until Dawn mod.

Supports friendly (male or female) and romantic (female) relationships with Alistair


Background: (Spoilers)

Alistair has lost his close friend and mentor to a major battle due to what he believes is
Loghain's betrayal when he failed to send in promised troops for support. I attempted to
depict his inner pain/visions that may further explain his motivations during the game.

Conditions:

The Warden must be in a friendly or romantic relationship with Alistair. The scene is
designed to trigger as an unexpected event one night while resting in camp.

Friendship version:
_______________________________________________________________________________
The following are conditions for Alistair's Nightmare to trigger when the Warden is Alistair's
good friend:

1. Alistair approval at 100 Friendship
2. Completed Sacred Ashes quest
3. Completed Alistair's personal Goldanna Quest
4. Slept in tent alone at least once

When all above conditions are met, the scene will trigger the next time the Warden chooses
to sleep alone in the tent.
_______________________________________________________________________________


Romance version:
_______________________________________________________________________________
The following are conditions for Alistair's Nightmare to trigger when the Warden is Alistair's
romantic partner:

1. Alistair approval above 90 in love
2. Completed Sacred Ashes Quest
3. Slept (snuggled) with Alistair in the tent at least once

When all above conditions are met, the scene will trigger the next time the Warden chooses
to snuggle with Alistair in the tent.

Please note!

1. This mod requires the installation of Dahlialynn's Sleep until Dawn
2. The scene will not trigger if you have already begun the Landsmeet.
3. The last portion of the dream itself features vanilla Alistair.
4. In the event you wish to romance Alistair later in the game and view the romantic
version only, you may prevent the friend version from triggering by going to:


[My Documents]BioWareDragon AgeSettings

Open the Dragonage.ini file with a text editor and add the following lines:

[DL03]
SuppressFriendshipCutscene=1

Save the file and that's it.

If you wish to re-enable the friend version, change the value from 1 to 0 or
delete the added lines altogether.
