LATEST NEWS


The Champion of Kynareth is finally here. Please be reminded that players are required to have finished the quest in the mod Wrath of Nature - The Path of the Druid in order for the sequel quest to trigger.

Back up your save files as this mod is script intensive. It is recommended that you keep the mod for the duration of your playthrough as the scripts get baked into your save files. Enjoy!

This mod is also available on the Steam Workshop!

DESCRIPTION


Continue on your journey as a druid in this sequel to the Wrath of Nature series. The sky goddess Kynareth is in need of help with her champion that has strayed away from the light. It is up to you to decide his fate and perhaps even become the new champion yourself.

Transform into four new and distinctly designed creatures with different abilities. Explore Skyrim's depths as a slaughterfish, soar above the skies as a wasp, stalk your prey as a spider, or maybe go all out with rage as a werelizard.

FEATURES


  • Four new transformations with unique abilities.
  • Fully-voiced questline with 2 possible endings!
  • A potential follower with the power to transform to any of the seven forms available to the player.
  • Become a champion of Kynareth! The goddess bestows upon you the ability to dodge incoming melee attacks by certain chance and be friendly with every creature in Tamriel.
  • Radiant quests which can occur with a default probability of 20%. This rate of occurrence can be configured via MCM.
  • Adros' location can be tracked by enabling the option in MCM.
  • The amount of bonus stats received for each aspect is configurable in MCM.
  • Morality can be turned on/off via MCM. This feature when turned on, prohibits the player from committing any further crimes as champion. Consequences for continued crime spree while this option is left on includes loss of all transformations and champion perks. Although these consequences can be averted depending on you.


STARTING THE QUEST


Once the Path of Druid quest line has been finished, go to the Temple of Kynareth in Whiterun and pray over the shrine in order to trigger the first quest.

DUTIES OF A CHAMPION


As the champion, you are to maintain the balance of life in Skyrim. Amaralda will appear before you every now and then to give you a task which involves killing abominations or groups of bandits / poachers. Amaralda will give the player a boon every time a radiant quest is completed. The boon lasts for 24 hours. The following outlines the requirements to triggering a radiant quest:
  • Player must be a champion of Kynareth.
  • Player must be out of combat and be in the Tamriel worldspace.
  • The boon of Kynareth should not be in effect on the player.

Given that the boon lasts for 24 hours, this means that at 100% probability, a radiant quest would occur once a day at most.

REQUIRED / RECOMMENDED MODS


The following are recommended / required when running this mod:

INSTALLATION


Simply place the ESP and BSA files to the Skyrim Data folder. I would recommend using NMM or any mod manager to install this.
Note: It is recommended to load the Champion of Kynareth.esp AFTER the Wrath of Nature.esp.

COMPATIBILITY / ISSUES


  • The mod should be incompatible to other mods that drastically alter locations in Skyrim. I have added 8 spawn points within Tamriel where certain monsters appear for players to hunt.
  • Should also be incompatible to mods that greatly modify the behavior of the Chaurus Hunter, Spider, Slaughterfish, and Werewolf.
  • Should Adros get stuck / stop at any time, just try to open up the console and disable / enable him.
  • The mod might still be unbalanced in terms of difficulty.
  • Issue with AFT where the dialogue option "I need you to do something." gets duplicated. I'm not sure why AFT is adding that dialogue.


LATEST UPDATE


Note: Back up your save files before updating!

Version 1.3
  • Re-packaged some of the missing voice files I forgot to include in the 1.2 release. Sorry!


Version 1.2
  • Better follower compatibility for Adros. Tested with UFO and AFT.
  • Reduced health bonus for aspect of shock.
  • Champion's presence can now be toggled in the MCM.
  • Some settings in the MCM will only appear when the mod quest line is finished.
