About this mod

A mod containing 22 unique CM Partners scattered around Shivering Isles with their own backgrounds and fighting styles. Come find the perfect companion in the Realm of Sheogorath!

Permissions and credits
After playing around with these partners in-game I made some minor changes to improve gameplay and the way these partners behave. A list of the changes are below. This update will not replace any partners you have already picked up with the exception of Jemma the female Redguard. These changes are not necessary but might improve their AI when not in your party, if you care about that sort of thing.

CM Partners Shivering Isles by Howabominable

Installation:

Extract to your Oblivion/Data folder.

Changelog:

V1.3
-The Khajiits and Argonians were using the wrong skeleton, often causing them to bug out graphically. This has been fixed.
-A copy of a partner from another mod snuck its way into this one. She has been removed.

V1.2
-Added birthsigns to all of the partners.
-Added all of the partners to the Player Faction.
-Changed the way the partners handle gold so that they accumulate it over time rather than having a set amount.

V1.1
-Some of the partners were classified as a combat type that was different than their class. This has been fixed.
-Jemma's cell spawn point has been changed to the Halcyon Conservatory. In her original spawn point, she would attack you if you were the Duchess of Dementia on sight due to the faction leanings and the fact that you are trespassing. With her new spawn point, anyone should be able to recruit her. PLEASE NOTE: If you install this update, Jemma will be reset back to her original location and her original inventory. You will have to go and get her in the Conservatory after you install this mod. Remember to remove all her gear if you wish to keep it.
-The aggression of all partners has been changed to 5 from 10. This is due to the fact that there are many partners in opposing factions, and otherwise they may be more inclined to attack each other. You may have to increase their aggression in-game to your liking. Remember that members of some factions do not like each other! Be nice to your partners :).
-Reduced the energy levels of Vivienne Angevine, Thurnin, and Laurent Rainier so they are less likely to move around.

Information:

This mod contains 22 essential CM partners that inhabit the Realm of Sheogorath in the Shivering Isles expansion pack. It contains two of each race, male and female, plus two extras. There are no special mods required besides Blackie's original CM Partners mod, however obviously Shivering Isles is required.

All of the partners come equipped with healing spells regardless of their class. They also should be friendly with the Gatekeeper so you can take them into the Fringe (something not generally possible with normal partners).

Here is the list of all the CM partners available with this mod (in alphabetical order):

Agmar - Agmar is a male Nord crusader who has inadvertently found himself trapped in Mirili Ulven's cage. Even worse, she won't let him out, claiming that she is too busy collecting information about the nature in the area. Agmar swears that when he gets out of that cage, he will have his vengeance! Will you let the poor guy out, or let him stew in there for a while? His cage is located in Highcross, a town north of New Sheoth.

Dolyn Rathas (Dementia) - Dolyn is a male Dunmer thief living in the Dementia side of the town of Split. Having no home of his own, he is staying with Dementia's Jastira Nanus for the moment in her house. He has a twin, Dolyn Rathas, on the Mania side of town and has a low disposition towards him. Take care if you are adventuring with the two brothers as they are more likely to attack each other than normal. They also have a lower responsibility and may take to stealing and getting you in trouble!

Dolyn Rathas (Mania) - Dolyn is a male Dunmer thief living in the Mania side of the town of Split. Having no home of his own, he is staying with Mania's Jastira Nanus for the moment in her house. He has a twin, Dolyn Rathas, on the Dementia side of town and has a low disposition towards him. Take care if you are adventuring with the two brothers as they are more likely to attack each other than normal. They also have a lower responsibility and may take to stealing and getting you in trouble!

Drojira - Drojira is a male Khajiit agent who lives in Bliss. He has one problem - he is in love with Svasha, a beautiful female upper-class Khajiit, but cannot express his love as he's not allowed in the inn where she lives because he is a simple beggar. Can you clean him up and make him presentable to meet the one he loves? If you wish to try, he can usually be found wandering around Bliss.

Elita Armina - Elita is the daughter of Una Armina, the curator of the Museum of Oddities in Crucible. She is an Imperial battlemage who is sick of listening to stories of odd things from her senile mother and wishes to find odd things on her OWN adventures. If you wish, you can help her make her dream come true!

Imogene Myrilla - Imogene is a female Imperial mage who has fallen on hard times. She spends her time begging for food and searching for shelter in New Sheoth. If you wish to give her a better life, you can generally find her wandering the streets of Crucible.

Jemma - Jemma is a female Redguard healer who can be found in Thadon's Halcyon Conservatory. She oversees the area and makes sure that everything is out of order! If you wish to take her with you on your travels, be warned that if you are the Duchess of Dementia you might have trouble getting her to come with you!

Junius Clutumnus - A male Imperial crusader, Junius is the identical twin brother of Hirrus Clutumnus. He has vowed to live the life his brother never could despite suffering from the same condition. Will you take him out to see and enjoy the world? Initially spawns in Hirrus Clutumnus' house but may be found in other areas of Crucible.

Kagra gra-Snarz - Kagra is a female Orc barbarian hired to take care of Muurine's "uncle." You can generally find her in Muurine's house in Crucible. If you can convince her that she really doesn't need to care for a rotting zombie day and night, she might just join you on your adventures.

Laurent Rainier - Laurent is a male Breton mage who has become ensnared by the cultish teachings of the Shivering Isles. He is a Zealot who spends his time in an abandoned camp reading books about Sheogorath and expressing his devotion. He is, however, friendly to any player who happens to come along! At least for now… If you want Laurent to join you on your travels, you can find him at the Inlet Camp. This camp is south of Fellmoor/Fringe and north of the Backwash Camp (next to the ocean). That is, you can find him there if he hasn't wandered away…

Maghail - Maghail is a female Bosmer pirate currently staying in The Wastrel's Purse in Passwall. When she first entered the town and found that she could not pass through the gate, she decided to put her skills to good use and become a cook at the inn. However, she has not forgotten her piratey ways!

Magrog gro-Marg - Magrog is a male Orc conjurer in the House of Mania. He tends to the gardens there and can be found down the hall from the throne room if you wish to invite him to join you!

Majeen - Majeen is a male Argonian acrobat who lives in Deepwallow. He is the wife of Beelei. While she is paranoid about the outside world, Majeen is more paranoid about the one living in this house… his wife. He is convinced she is out to get him. He hopes to escape someday. Maybe you can help him? You can find him in Beelei's house in Deepwallow, a town south of New Sheoth.

Novari Alaro - Novari is a female Dunmer noble located in the House of Dementia. She tends to the needs of the Duchess as well as takes care of the dungeon. If you wish for her to accompany you instead, you may go and find her in the House of Dementia. Has a low responsibility.

Omatar - Omatar is a male Altmer scout who is an unfortunate victim of Relmyna Verenim. For years he has been tortured and traumatized in the Xaslem Sanctum of Vivisection, but there is hope. He has recently managed to escape from his cell. You can find him cowering his way around the Sanctum of Vivisection, near the exit if he's lucky enough. Will you help him recover from the trauma? Keep in mind that when he is not sufficiently distracted with his party duties, the haunting memories will come flooding back…

Rumalae - Rumalae is an Altmer assassin sent to kill the Duchess of Dementia. Will her plans come to fruition? To find out, search for her in the Duchess' Quarters. Perhaps you can convince her to come with you instead. Note that if you are the Duke of Mania you might have some trouble getting to her…

Sinikka - Sinikka is a female Nord pilgrim who has recently been hired at the Missing Pauldron in Bliss to model her fabulous amber armor and weapons. You can usually find her there if you wish for her to join your party.

Svasha - Svasha's main affliction is that she is in love. A female Khajiit sorcerer, she has fallen for a common beggar in Bliss. Will her dreams come true? Will Svasha and Drojira finally be able to adventure together? You decide. She can be found in The Choosy Beggar inn in Bliss.

Swings-Her-Fists - Swings-Her-Fists is the sister of Tall-Trees-Falling. She is an Argonian monk who loves to fight and loves to drink more! She drinks all the time, and tells epic tales about her adventures in punching various things to death with her powerful fists. Maybe you can give her more things to punch? You can find her in Tall-Trees-Falling's house in Hale, which is south-east of the Isle of Flame.

Terrus - Terrus is a male Redguard archer who lives in Sickly Bernice's Taphouse in Crucible. He is spending a few days in the inn before heading out to hunt in the wild. If you wish to join him, go visit before he leaves!

Thurnin - Thurnin is a male Bosmer rogue who is living the life of a Heretic in the southern part of the Realm of Sheogorath. He spends his dull days reading heretical books and thinking heretical things… but he just might be up for some adventure if the right player was to come along. If you are that player, you can find him in the Lost Time camp. Follow the road in Dementia all the way south. The camp is east of Pinnacle Rock.

Vivienne Angevine - Vivienne is a female Breton warrior. She is mourning the death of her aunt Helene in the New Sheoth Graveyard, down the road from the Dementia side of the city. She has a full set of madness armor. If you wish for her to join you, please know that it is possible for her to wander off, though her AI is set for her to stay put as much as possible. It might be a good idea to invite her to your group as soon as you can while she is still spending time at her aunt's grave!



If you wish to take these partners out of the Shivering Isles, it's is recommended you download a companion gate that allows you to do so. It can be pretty tricky getting them back and forth sometimes. This mod was a bit more involved than my other CM partners mods, and I had to mess with factions quite a bit, so if you have any problems please let me know.



Future Plans for this Mod:
Now that I have the basic CMs here for you to enjoy, I would like to start customizing them more (without making you download any extra mods, of course), Each partner has his or her own special personality and backstory, and I’d like to show those more in-game by adding unique dialog, etc. This will obviously take a lot of work but it should be worth it in the end! Keep an eye out over the next few months as I go through each CM Partners mod I have created and customize them. The changes I make should not cause any of your current partners to reset.
