About this mod

Ashara's amazing mod, just without the NPC Bjorn adding in access to materials, ingredients, and skill tomes.

In OMEGA, loot balance is incredibly important.  However I have to admit that I'm pretty OCD when it comes to selling off my loot.  If I have to run to different cities and travel via Carriages in order to sell everything off...then I damn well will.  Even if I don't want to.

In the end I realized I was wasting countless hours visiting major cities to sell all of my loot off because I couldn't stop myself from doing it.  So I opted for this mod to have a "one stop shop" selling experience.  I enjoyed having the random Master Trainers out there as well, so it was a nice fit in my Mod Build.

The merchant will essentially be able to buy everything, but will not purchase stolen goods.  This is a convenience addition only.  Bjorn is removed entirely so that the extra materials, ingredients, and tomes he was selling are not injected into the OMEGA MLU loot balance.  And that's pretty much it.

I highly recommend using Smart Training - Tweaked SE with this.  However in the MCM I'd change the following settings.  Training Perk Points: turn this off unless you want bonus/free perk points (I turn it off).  Mod Active: check this to turn it on, but make sure to read it's warning if installed mid-game.  

It gives you reliable and easily accessed trainers without breaking the Training system.  And stops me from visiting multiple cities after dungeon runs just to empty my bags.

[size=14]Description
==========================================================================================================================================[/size]
This mod adds two merchants and trainers called Xenia and Bjorn.

Xenia
-------
You can find Xenia in most of the inns of Skyrim and at the Inn at Raven Rock. She has a lot of money (30,000 gold coins) and is also a master trainer. She doesn't sell anything.
Xenia offers the following training services:
1.- Sneak - Windhelm
2.- Destruction - Whiterun
3.- Pickpocket - Solitude
4.- One handed - Riften
5.- Light Armour - Markarth
6.- Enchanting - Morthal
7.- Two handed - Dawnstar
8.- Conjuration - Falkreath
9.- Illusion - Riverwood
10.- Restoration - Rorikstead
11.- Alchemy - Dragon Bridge
12.- Archery - Winterhold
13.- Heavy armour - Ivarstead
14.- Block - Kynesgrove
15.- Alteration - Old Hroldan Inn
16.- Lockpicking - Nightgate Inn
17.- Only buys items - Retching Netch (Raven Rock)


Bjorn
-------
You can find Bjorn in the inns of the five main cities (Markarth, Riften, Solitude, Whiterun and Windhelm) and at the Inn at Raven Rock. He sells all the skill books, alchemy ingredients and metal ingots available in game and also all the ingredients available in all three DLCs (Hearthfire, Dawguard and Dragonborn).
Bjorn offers the following training services:
17.- Smithing - Solitude
18.- Speech - Windhelm 

Be warned that Skyrim merchants buy/sell options break if they have more than 30,000 gold coins. So, if you buy lots of things from Bjorn an he ends up having more than 30,000 gold coins, you won't be able of selling him anything (actually, you'd be able to sell them but you won't receive any gold for the items you sold). If you want to buy and sell from him, sell the items to him before he reaches the 30,000 gold limit.
This Skyrim bug doesn't apply to training services, i.e., if you buy training services from Xenia and she ends up with more than 30,000 gold coins, you can still sell any items to her without problems: it seems the game handles differently the gold they receive from training services than the gold they receive from bought items.

[size=14]Required mods
==========================================================================================================================================[/size]
For the main version, all 3 official DLCs: 
* Hearthfire
