FOLLOWER AI & SPECIAL FEATURES:
-------------------------------------------------------
MCM configuration available if you have SKSE and SkyUI. If you don't have them, you're just missing out!
Track Followers; Wardrobe Management; Warp to Player; and more!
Standalone faces - contains all face & hair resources, NO mods required.
Vanilla body - Inherits body meshes/textures from your game, so uses whatever (if any) mods you have installed.
Following - Each follower runs on separate scripts, factions and packages from vanilla, so true conflict should be nonexistent.
NO FOLLOWER COUNT!! Have as many of them together as you want!
Riding - Each followers comes with their own horse and will ride when asked or automatically when the Player rides.
Sandboxing - Followers will sandbox while following, just like Serana, as long as they are not in a hostile area.
Followers go anywhere with you -- even into the DB Sanctuaries, and Sovnguarde!
Set Home - while in any Player home, as long as it has the keyword "LocTypePlayerHouse", you can set the follower to live there.
Dismiss and Meet at (Place) - You can send them to meet you at any of the five main inns.
Special Favors - Nadina and Valyen have unique special favors on request.
Special Carry Bag - Followers can store items safely, in addition to regular trade.
Singing! - Followers sing little ditties and songs, including some duets!
No Helmets - Follower un-equip helmets when not in combat.
Party Camp - Inspired by Dragon Age Origins, where you can hang out, craft, sleep, cook, talk, CHILL.
Marriage - Currently Anduniel, Darion, Nadina, Valyen and Zorya are marriable with unique weddings,
but I am working on full romance paths for EACH follower!

APPROVAL SYSTEM, ROMANCE & MARRIAGE:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Followers react to how you treat them, and their approval will increase or decrease based on how you reply. Giving them gifts will also raise approval. A high approval opens the path to friendship and possible romance and marriage. Each Follower has their own unique romances and weddings!
For quick details on all marriage, visit the Blog: Marriage page.

PARTY BANTER:
------------------------
If the followers are near each other, they can have random conversations, 100+ total!
Banter scenes were largely inspired by Dragon Age games, so if you're also a huge fan like me, I'm sure you'll notice where that influence is.
You can find a list of all Banter scenes on the Blog: Party Banter.
Interesting NPCs Banter:
If you have Kris Takahashi's Interesting NPCs, this mod INCLUDES banter with some of those followers!
A script will detect if INPCs is installed, and if so, will fire the banter.
Currently included banter: Amalee, Isobel, Skjarn, Rumarin, Valgus

QUEST CONVERSATIONS:
--------------------------------------
Rise in the East (Darion)
Blood on the Ice (Nadina)
Dragon Rising (various)
Full main questline (Anduniel)
Partial main questline (Teryn)
Full Companions questline (Anduniel)

NOTES:
---------
Not all (in fact most) of Lyra's songs aren't yet implemented. If a song does not work, that's probably why.
