This mod is in ongoing development. I am extremely passionate about the Dragon Age games, I love them. 
My goal of this mod was simple: to re-imagine DAO Followers in Skyrim with believable stories. It is mainly intended for fans of the original DAO, since you guys will get all the little jokes and references, but those not familiar with DAO can certainly enjoy it too!


Right now it does still have a few kinks, but most of the stuff is working. Basic Follower framework is in place and working. Dialogue and Special features are still WIP.


Please keep in mind, this mod is a HOMAGE, not a "rip" or a copy!
I'd appreciate feedback!

INSTALLATION:
Manual installation is highly recommended. OR
Download manually and then install into your manager, rather than "download with manager."

Featured Sept. 15, 2018, in ComicBook.com!
"Skyrim Meets Dragon Age with these Mods"

Status:
Orange == WIP
Red == Future planned (if I can pull it off)

Enhanced Follower Features:
- Immersive recruit dialogue, bridging DAO original respective w/ TES lore
- Backstories and Follower chat in-progress
- Unique Follower framework, NO follower count
DO NOT USE AFT/EFF/UFO etc. ON MY FOLLOWERS. IT COULD BREAK THEIR BRAINS.
I PROVIDE ABSOLUTELY NO SUPPORT FOR THIS. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED.

- Ride their own horse when asked, or automatically when Player mounts
- Warp to Player if they fall behind or get separated
- 'Call [Name]' power included if you get separated when Followers are actively Following
- Set their Home in any Player home, vanilla or modded (needs to have Keyword "LocTypePlayerHouse" input by the respective modder)
- Dismiss and send to certain places depending on each Follower's affinities
- Contains Hair and Eye resources, but will use your Default installed Skin.


There is also a PARTY CAMP!
But I haven't decided how I want to implement getting there.
Dialogue with a Follower? A power spell?
For now you have to use console, cc "coc adaoPartyCamp01"
Then use the Followers' "Call [Name]" power to bring them there.
I'm in the process of writing several Party Banters between all of them. If you'd like to contribute see my note further down.

For Alistair and Zevran you'll need Fuz Roh D'oh to make the dialogues stay more than a second.

Ideas for Future Development (Brainstorming)
- Give option to help Alistair ascend to High King, or remain a soldier

F.A.Q.
Q: Different body mesh versions for Robe outfits?
A: Leliana's Temple Robes & Morrigan's Purple Robes use CBBE mesh. You can overwrite by creating these directories:
 - Leliana uses generic Monk Robes mesh
Data\Meshes\DragonAge\Clothes\Leliana
Copy/Paste your body mesh robes here, named: TempleRobes_f_0, TempleRobes_f_1, TempleRobesgnd
 - Morrigan uses the "Journeyman/Master Mage Robes"
Data\Meshes\DragonAge\Clothes\Morrigan
MorriganRobesF_0, MorriganRobesf_1, MorriganRobesgo

Textures should still work fine.

JOIN THE TEAM!
Are you a DAO fan who would like to contribute ideas for backstory, Player chats, party banter?
Please send me a PM!
Basically, Party Banter will reflect the original characters' DAO personalities but apply to Skyrim events and lore.
