This was a great mod in it's time, but it has now been superceded by Paarthurnax - Quest Expansion by jayserpa. 
I will leave this mod up for those that want it, but it is now unsupported and you should use the above mod instead.


I first tried this mod in the Legendary Edition of Skyrim and loved it.  I have finally gotten permissions from a200500 to port it to SE so
everyone else can enjoy it too.  Thanks to a200500 for allowing me to port this mod.

You can find the LE version here: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/8879

Comes in an esl formatted version or just the regular esp if you don't care about giving up the esp slot.


The following is a direct rip from the original mod.

Adds three additional possible outcomes to the Paarthurnax sidequest.

1a) Lie
2a) Murder in a fit of rage
2b) Murder before this quest even starts
3a) Talk them down

Talk to the involved NPCs to learn their side of the story to open the
alternate option. Also after talking to the Blades about why they think
you should do something your character gets fed up enough to either
berate the either of the Blades. (Stage 60)

Or as requested you can also take advantage of the unessential status two characters have
which occurs after learning a dragons name. Note that due to their low
intelligence you need to kill both to fail the quest completely. The mod
also will attempt to update their essential status even if your past
the quest that you learn the name in.

If you already past the point of no return you should know and this mod will not have any affect after that point.

Update 1: Dialog trees related to quest closed after finishing through alternate route
Update 2: Graybeard Radiant Story Quests Remain enabled on Alt. Completion,
and quest will not vanish after finishing main quest line.
Update 3: Added trigger to unessential two characters after learning the name of a dragon on either quest.
Update 4: You can also now talk them out of it with a lecture.
Update 5: Activation path is simplier now (Talk to graybeard or paarthurnax instead of and*)
Update 5.1: Fixed error that could occur if you already finished main quest
and talked to graybeards (I now set my own stage that is a duplicate of
stage 30 so if you come back you can still do it again)
Update 6: Added startup script so the quest can be updated even if your past the main quest line
Update 7: Altered script to monitor when Blades should be unessential
Update 8: Made monitor script also unhide quest if hidden by game and general code improvments.
Update 8.1: Checked completion and added checks for inconsistant quest stages.

Not really updated just responded to an very old email telling me to put
the two files into a folder to make it NMM compatible. (The files are
identical to the old version)
