Changelogs
This mod has been updated for 1.6 by vinillabean! Due to IRL stuff I will be on a modding hiatus for a few months from 20th February. This unfortunately means that when 1.6 hits I won't be able to update for a while, so while most of my mods should remain compatible with 1.6 there may be some issues I won't be able to address until I have time to mod again.

Important notice: the only "quest" this mod adds is a message asking you to bring Alecto a prismatic shard, any other quests are added by Aimon's amazing Distant Lands swamp mod which has built in compatibility with Alecto.

My take on Rasmodius's ex, the witch!

Alecto is many things. A grumpy wine aunt. A secret romantic. The "owner" of two crows. Going through a lot right now. Slightly cursed. She is best installed any time before you gain access to the Witch's Hut and can be interacted with as soon as you meet her, no magic ink quest required (just don't tell the wizard).

For guides to her events, gift tastes and schedule, see the articles tab!

Configuration Options:

  • FemaleWizard: set this to "true" if you have any of the mods that replace the wizard with a female version (eg Razolyn, Rasmodia).
  • LoadWitchHut: set this to "false" if you have any other mods which include events in the Witch's Hut (if you get an error message in SMAPI about multiple packs wanting to load "Data/Events/WitchHut" this is what is happening).

Compatibility:

  • Should be compatible with most other mods, including other Witch NPCs.
  • In-built compatibility re: pronouns for female wizard replacements, although Alecto will definitely imply her ex wife is older than she seems...
  • Will conflict with any mods that replace the witch sprite in the void egg random event.
  • Aimon's Distant Lands has built in compatibility with Alecto.
  • I've tried to reduce lore conflict as much as possible, although she will definitely conflict lore-wise with other versions of the witch (unless you imagine the wizard has a lot of angry ex-wives, I guess) and with Harvest Goddess as she won't realise Ras is "on holiday".
  • Has additional gift tastes if Grapes of Ferngill, Forage of Ferngill, PPJA Artisan Valley and/or Host Trees are installed.
  • Reacts to events from several other custom NPC mods (eg Juna, Lavril, Lucikiel, Jean and Jorts).
  • Bonus events if East Scarp and/or NPC Wellwick are installed!
  • Has additional days in her schedule if East Scarp or Ridgeside Village are installed!
  • Her crows hang out with Jorts, Jean and Mister Ginger if they are all installed.

Future Plans:

  • Add more events when Ridgeside Village, Juna and/or East Scarp are installed.
  • Add more dialogue when Romanceable Rasmodius or RRR are installed.
  • An NPC Adventures pack.
  • More crow content.
  • Option to have Alecto as a roommate.

Known Issues:

  • Alecto may get stuck on the railroad map if SVE is installed due to a patch of grass added outside her cave - if you scythe the grass away whenever it regrows she should be fine! I intend to make a more permanent fix in the next big update.

Thank you to SmolHooman for the crow sprites Alecto's crows are based on, and to the gang (y'all know who you are) especially Lani for teaching me some optimisation tricks!

Alecto is all set up with i18n tokens for ease of translations, if you want to translate her just let me know!
