Description
(This mod may require the experimental version of Kenshi, as I am using it)

The mod Radiant Better Faces & Eyes adds a new recruit that is not lore friendly and has many typos in the dialogue. This patch removes said recruit.
Link to Radiant Better Faces & Eyes:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2508412096
Place the patch below the mod that it is patching.

So you've gotten to Admag and you see a very standout greenlander girl (yes, a flatskin, and not affiliated with the ninjas or any special faction) with bright purple hair and eyes...
You instantly regret talking to her, because you have the dialogue options to compliment her face or tell that she is ugly, written with many typos and with a narrative that the worst fanfics of fanfics couldn't get worse...
Your immersion is broken. It appears that some mod you have installed has inserted this Mary Sue into your game, but you can't figure out which one...
You Google and realize that a mod replacing and adding face textures has also added this lore unfriendly, immersion-breaking and poorly written recruit (another one of those annoying cases of modder overreaching)...
What's worse, when you respectfully point out that this Kiana character has broken your immersion and is NOT lore friendly, your comment gets deleted.

If you can relate to any of that and would like Kiana out of your Kenshi experience, this mod is for you! Place this below Radiant Faces and you will never have to experience Kiana again.
If installed mid-playthrough and after meeting Kiana, her personality and dialogue defaults into a placeholder.

i wonder how many other unwanted changes author sneak up on you xD

Thanks to this mod i found which character was this mod from, no way it was from vanilla and i didn't remember adding any new NPC. Sadly this mod is now unecesary as i found a guilty pleasure of just recruiting kiana then sending her into the foglands to get captured and eaten alive.

Thank you! Personally I like to pick and choose my mods piecemeal for singular features to really craft a perfect experience for myself.

I understand why modders might add more to things. But... Shiroho's dialogue in his mods were unpleasant to me. I did not appreciate how he depicted women in his writing. It came off as incel-like.

I appreciate you patching that out. :steamthumbsup: I hope Shiroho experiences some personal change for the better and he can put this all behind him someday.

Мало того что она портит настроение)) , так ещё и нулёвая полностью у неё нет статов всё по единичке.

Funny enough this mod helped me during my recent troubleshooting as to which mod changed, or rather: butchered, Izumi's recruitment dialogue. Shiroho's texture mods are actually very commendable, but his writing seems to be consistently atrocious. If you wanna see a real horror story just check out what he did to Izumi, which went from just a wholesome little kid asking for funds for her research to what I can only describe as someone ERP'ing a sobbing child who screams at the top of her lungs that you're trying to turn her into your sex slave, preceded by a very poorly written attempt at someone verbalizing their distress and you having no choice other than trying to lecture her into a weird moral stance considering the game's context and lore.

I wish I was making this up, it's in his Radiant Unique Recruits Dialogues mod. Here's a screenshot of an excerpt:

thanks for making this mod!
There's nothing quite like watching a man melt away.

Fr though, I had just recently encountered Kiana the other day in my playthough. When I googled her assuming she was a unique recruit, I couldn't find a lick of information about her, so I assumed she was an elaborate rng based character... Judging by what people have been saying, her dialogue's been improved, but like only by a little bit.
Had her act as a turret guard before any of this, so I haven't had a yap out of her since. Thinking I might change her name with the plastic surgeons, since I personally don't really like using uniques.

I personally do play on experimental, but as I said some stuff conflicts with FCS 2 stuff, including OpenConstructionSet which i personally use.

Yeah... I figured it would only work on experimental and wrote as much in the description
Why wouldn't you play on the experimental branch though?

Few issues with this mod:
- Doesn't seem to work with Kenshi 1.0.51, only experimental branch
- Coming from the first one, it breaks when I try to use lmaydev's OpenConstructionSet to make a patch for custom skeleton races from Radiant Faces mod

I believe you made this mod using FCS 2 from Kenshi 1.0.55, thus it doesn't work with 1.0.51, which uses FCS 1, would be nice to have backwards compatability built-in.
