Just wanted to say how amazing this is. Aside from having a female custom follower which isn't totally sexualized all the time for a change + having such a deep and fun to play backstory is so refreshing! So - and I'm saying this as a man to the others who are complaining in the comments - the decision to make her non-romancable was the right decision! Was a great Journey (in the shadows), thanks for that! :) Also I'm full for an expansion if you're into that!
Thx fo this beautiful mod! And now about the sad... Getting a CTD, I get an error when I complete quests -"The Only Cure" on stage quest 21, when I try to talk to Peryite or "Good Intensions" quest stage 50, when trying to talk to an Auguru. The error disappears when the mod "Katana" is deleted or after talking with Katana at the stage of the quest 10 ->-20 "Description: Katana has a plan, but it looks like I need to wait and talk to her later. Objective: Talk to Katana another time" No conflicts and overwrites in SSEEdit.
Hello there. On the pinned post in the comments here, you'd see: *If you are crashing due to this mod, please simply progress (talk to Katana instead of talking to Azura, for example) the early stages of Chasing the Current. This issue has been fixed in 3.0.*
You simply need to talk to Katana when she's ready. In the 2.0.6 build, make sure you're not in Whiterun, and six hours have passed.
So I just discovered this mod while building up my new playlist so I haven't used it yet
But why the hell is this on the fifth page of follower mods for endorsements? It looks so good like if this works how I think it will. This could become one of my favourite follower mods. Up there with Lucien and Inigo.
If you end up already liking it now, wait 'til you see the 3.0 update (I have previews on the Discord)! I absolutely cannot wait to share everything, but summer is also here so I gotta be outside, haha. ;) But yep, I've been told this is an "indie" companion mod!
A really nice and well made mod. Works absolutely fine. Katana and Megara are sweet.. Love them :-) .. The only thing.. It's a pity there is no banter with other followers... But nevertheless.. Thank you very much :-)
Hello, and thanks for the kind words! The main reason there's no banter with others is because we want to be able to control when the interactions fire. And time. That's a lot of coordination to manage.
Additionally, we have a third companion joining the roster (join the Discord for previews), and I strongly believe banter among three is more than enough. ;)
Yes! His name is Shale. You may have heard his name mentioned in the battle with River (if you didn't skip the scene when you enter Kilerth's Rest). :)
It's crazy that I discovered this mod by accident last year. I was looking for a custom katana sword but ended up with a custom follower wielding a katana instead. Anyway, I'm looking forward for the big update. Perhaps Katana will lend me her riffle this time so I can lend her my big curved sword ;p

Can you help me with this problem? I didn't find a similar error on the site.
You simply need to talk to Katana when she's ready. In the 2.0.6 build, make sure you're not in Whiterun, and six hours have passed.
Is there a plan to expand on her?
We currently don't know if we'll feel like creating another huge quest because, as is, the 3.0 update is big.
Creating a quest exclusively meant for her has been talked about a little bit, but this hobby is quite time-consuming. We'll see!
Even just more commentary and (if you see like) more filrtaceous comments as you get friendlier with her would be aweosme.
But why the hell is this on the fifth page of follower mods for endorsements? It looks so good like if this works how I think it will. This could become one of my favourite follower mods. Up there with Lucien and Inigo.

I'm kidding.
Is there something I can do?
