=== NAMES === 

If you have SKSE, Bjorn can check your character's name. For now, he says these names:

• Anika • Belladonna • Castian • Natalyia • Aiden • Roweena • Ellery • 

There are more interactions with other names, but I'll only include them here when they're complete.


=== QUESTS ===

Contains LOTS of Spoilers!

• Past Shadows

Bjorn will mention the desire to return to his old village after sharing his entire story with you. To access the quest item, Thruzar will ask you to become a Blood-Kin. This is an original game quest, and by completing any of the quests anywhere in Skyrim that give you access to the Orc Strongholds. The Orcs need to trust you. Even after being stopped by Orc Yatul at the door, you can still enter; the scene with Thruzar will happen, but he will ask you to complete the quest to find the gauntlets.

• Heart Whispers

This quest has four different paths:

01 - You join the Dark Brotherhood - Little Shadow will be there and is a follower; you can recruit her by just talking to her or talking to Astrid. Talking to Astrid will mark her on the map, making it easier to find her since she wanders around the sanctuary. If you're already the Listener when you meet her, she won't follow you; she'll say a few things and leave. You don't need to follow her; she will be disabled on a trigger.

02 - You meet her in the Thieves Guild - She's there a bit grumpy until you're a real member of the guild; she now has a dialogue to follow you. In this path, she accompanies you until you complete the previous quest and show her the diary, or if you become the Listener, she leaves before, as in the previous option.

03 - You destroy the Dark Brotherhood - In this case, she will follow and attack you even if she was your follower before you were kidnapped by Astrid. If you didn't know her, the dialogue changes, but she still tries to kill you. Bjorn will have dialogue lines about this, and she will leave, as in the other options.

04 - You do none of the above - After completing the Past Shadows quest, a timer will be activated for you to find Thruzar at the inn in Falkreath.

Thruzar will be in Falkreath in all options, as long as his conditions for being there are completed, which are: completing the Past Shadows quest without Little Shadow, or having met her and she has left. He will indicate a bandit camp where there will be a very vague clue; this quest ends here.

• Fire Bonds

After some time, Bjorn will want to take a look at the docks of Windhelm; at this time, Thruzar should appear and become a follower. He knows someone at the docks who can give you information, after completing a personal quest with Thruzar. He stays in the Riften tower after completion, and you can get the information you need.

• Bloodline's Secrets (WIP)

With the information, you'll meet a new character, Ulain, a dark elf that you'll have to protect to find out more things. I'm in this part of the development, so sorry for the inconvenience, just leave him at an inn for now, okay? =]

• Heart's Bravest Beat (Romantic)

After two conversations about relationships, if you follow the romantic path, Bjorn will want to "spice up" the relationship a bit; you can agree or not. If you do, he'll start calling you cute names from then on; if not, he'll say he understands. Anyway, after some time, if you use the Amulet of Mara, he'll make a declaration and give you a poem. Again, after some time, he'll say he has a surprise for you; this quest gives you access to a type of engagement ring, and he'll propose to you, the marriage is vanilla, in Riften but with its own dialogues, he'll also give you some money, with the intention that you buy a house.


=== MEMORY SYSTEM ===

Bjorn has a system to remember where he's been with you; he doesn't make assumptions, the lines happen if he's actually been there so the more quests you do with him, the more he'll have to say. If you leave him at an inn while doing quests, he won't know anything, so he'll have at most some vague comments. This system is being implemented gradually and will bring more immersion with deeper conversations; most will come as memories asking what he's thinking about, an Idle, or more elaborate questions in the "Do you feel like talking?" menu.


=== INTERACTIONS WITH MODS AND NPCS ===

Bjorn is a Vanilla Plus follower; the priority of his development will always be to interact with the game and not with other mods, but I don't oppose it because this is a very vibrant community and having several mods interacting with each other is fun to see!

Bjorn currently interacts with:

NPCs in the game, among them: Sven, Delphine, Aela, Galmar, Jon Battle-Born (After a dialogue, he becomes a follower), among others.

NPCs from the mod itself: Little Shadow, Thruzar, and Ulain (WIP).

NPCs from Followers Mods: I have plans for him to talk to Gore but for now there's only the scene at Whitewatch Tower; he has a few lines with the original Kaidan 2, it's okay if you have any of its expansions, it doesn't make a difference. He says a few things to Inigo, but he's a voice package so don't expect much hehe.

Other mods: I have plans to make patches for bard mods, since Bjorn sings and plays the lute for now... you can suggest anything you want on our Discord! Including names!

That's it, folks. Thank you for downloading! <3
