Champion of The Daedra - version 2
This mod is a gameplay overhaul which puts werewolves against vampires, via the daedric lords Hircine & Molag Bal having a war of opposing factions.

:: HARD REQUIREMENTS ::
� Skyrim.esm
� Update.esm
� Heathfires.esm
� Dawnguard.esm
� Dragonborn.esm

:: SOFT REQUIREMENTS ::
� Hircine's Champion - The Werewolf Lord Overhaul - https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/6743 (since it allows you to access your inventory in werewolf form)
� Better Vampires 8.4 SE - https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/1925 (since it allows you to access your inventory in vampire lord form)

You can use Sacrosanct instead of Better Vampires if you wish.
You can use Moonlight Tales or Growl instead of Hircine's Champion if you wish.

The potions Hircine's Favour (Werewolf) & Molag Bal's Favour (Vampire Lord) both work in human form, and will give you perk tree progress in either tree depending on which potion you are drinking.

:: FEATURES ::
� A new worldspace accessible via a boat owned by a ferryman in Winterhold
� A large amount of craftable items, weapons & spells
� A ship based player home
� Two factions aligned to either werewolf or vampire lord play
� A mage druid follower
� A system for collecting drops from enemies which can benefit player growth
� Class-based combat items and a focus on sandbox free-roam RPG

:: GENERAL OTHER STUFF ::
� Compatible with many other mods, except a few which will be outlined specifically
� Does not modify vampires or werewolves, so it can be used with major overhauls such as Better Vampires & Hircine's Champion
� Navmeshed & follower friendly
� Should allow you to go from level 1 to 80 without needing any main quests, great for players who have completed Skyrim multiple times and want a new way to progress

:: NOT COMPATIBLE WITH ::
VAMPIRE-WEREWOLF HYBRID MODS (i.e. Tainted Blood of the Dragonborn) https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/9312?tab=description
SKYRIM REPUTATION (as that modifies factions of werewolves) https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/22374?tab=description
GURU_SR's FRIENDLY VAMPIRES (as that modifies the player vampire faction) https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/54084

:: RECOMMENDED MODS ::
� Humanoid Vampire Lords - https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/28384
� Royal Bloodline - Vampire Lord perk tree - abilities - and more SSE Edition - https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/10645
� Lupine - https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/16561?tab=description (since it adds things to werewolves that allow them to be more balanced with better vampires)
� Coldhaven - https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/22379 (there is a quick access teleport which can take you near the entrance to Coldhaven)
� Super Simple Bathing - https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/3758 (since the player home contains respawning soap ingredients)

These are not necessary, but they are highy symbiotic to this mod.

:: KNOWN ISSUES ::
� I am considering repackaging the mod as a singular .esp, but when a mod reaches a certain size it can develop a saving bug in creation kit that can break the mod, so to add more I had to turn it into an .esm and work on the seperate .esp
� Load order recommendation is to put this at the end of your load order, to ensure factions & loot drops function correctly. [1]Main File (ESM), [2]Add-on (ESP), then the [3]Optional (ESP).

:: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ::
This mod (COTD) was inspired by playing various Final Fantasy games, Diablo 3, Albion Online & Runescape.
This mod is complete, but it can be added to, as new ideas come up. It was ready for release, but I don't think it will be ever be 'finished' while I'm still able to use Creation Kit and mod Skyrim.
I am very interested in collaborating with other Skyrim modders, as I don't see this mod as only for me, but it was shared as a thank you to the other modders who have shared their mods on the nexus/bethesda.net/steam etc which has improved Skyrim so much for me.
If you would like to get involved in helping me to develop Champion of The Daedra, feel free to contact me through the nexus, either in comments or a direct message.
Skyrim was built by a team, the Beyond Skyrim mods were built by a team, and that's why I see it as realistic to work with a team of modders.
I would like to get in contact with the Skyrim Together modding team as I think this mod would be best experienced as part of an MMORPG.
I'm soon going to be opening a new Discord server to provide better support and communication for this mod's development.
