@TheLostArchangel

Now, this may sound silly, but were i you, I wouldn't go around eating other people's hearts...

Eating Feoden's Heart seems to simply cause me to die, and respawn at my latest save point without anything having happened.

Hey, there seems to be a problem when I try to equip the Ancient Shaman Robes. When I try to wear it, the game crashes to desktop. I'm playing as a Breton and I don't recall this happening with other races, so maybe the issue is there?

There's enough Nightengale armor rip offs out there as is.

hehe got it... the hammer looks like something from another game but that is just a silly observation of mine. and since you mentioned "the last of the mohicans", i 'membered that "last of the meheecans" south park episode, wich made me 'member another stuff... i don't know if you are into south park (but i do know this kinda have nothing to do with the original subject), but if you are, and considering you are a mod maker, i figured you could do a mysterion outfit based on the nightingales armor... but if you are not into south park and maybe doesn't even know what im talking about... well, i can only hope that somebody who agrees with my """genoius""" idea reeds this and make or pass on to someone who can make this mod. it would be realy ultra fucking cool

As for the mankini, I did consider just letting him go full native, but you would need additional mods to make things *ahem* correct. There IS a slightly more skimpy version available on Nexus; the mankini is a thong in the back, and the ladies get to go topless :-P Seriously, though, part of his legend is the fact that he had no armor to protect him, so I tried to give him a somewhat feasible version of that. I thought giving him the leather leg wraps was enough to at least make it somewhat realistic that he wouldn't just die immediately in battle. The look was actually mostly based off of Magua from Last of the Mohicans. I figured that was close enough to the lore while still being slightly realistic.

@Highmer No problem! Wasn't trying to be salty. In actuality, the vanilla generic Draugr carries A sword, but not THE sword. Since Red Eagle's Fury is an heirloom passed down among the Forsworn and required to open the tomb, it seemed silly for Red Eagle himself to be buried with another, different sword. So I thought a different weapon like a hammer would make more sense.

@araanim yeah this was something i've noticed too, red eagle is pretty androgenous in your version wich i found pretty cool. when i said that you've changed his sword, i ment the sword the generic draugr use in the vanilla version. actualy it's the first time im using mods in skyrim, i started a new save and etc... so i beraly remembered the first time i played this quest. i just think it was too mutch for me, considering im dealing with mods just now.

(shame on me who forgot a lot of red eagle's lore and didn't seek after reeding it before making my previous coment)

The mod is great, and if you can't handle a mankini on him, they might I suggest Saviors's Hide? It fits like a womans one piece, and REALLY show off those Nordy legs....

@highmer simpson As I say multiple times in the description, I DID NOT touch Red Eagle's Sword at all; there are plenty of other mods that do that. As for his armor, the lore surrounding Red Eagle clearly states that he fought the empire naked. It's callback to the ancient Celts and the way they would charge into battle wearing only body paint. I'm sure you wouldn't have anything to say if Red Eagle was a woman by default, so maybe relax?

man... i think the idea is very cool, but the result is trully disapointing. you replaced red eagle's sword for a fffng wooden texture bizarre hammer! the red eagle armor you designed is the gayest thing of all times (not wanting to be homofobic, but dude, wtf he wears a tong). oh man, i just think that you worked too much in cosmetics stuff getting to a point of beeing exagerated... like i said, the idea is cool, but your way to execute it totaly sucked ass




but hey, who am i to say, am i right?

Well, I thought you'd like ot know that this mod is now part of my automatic additions. Well done.

A shame that this addon seems to be causing crashes. Most likely a mod conflict.

Awesome job? I think that's an understatement.

Awesome job mate.

Hey, creator dude, the light armor chest plate has an issue with boobs.

Not using mods at the moment so i dont know if everything works but just want to say good job dude holy shit, really makes this quest look actually interesting, big props on the sword.

Alright, I've run the Mod through several characters now, and it works quite well. I do enjoy the armor options for a low- mid range.

It's possible to wear the tattoos for their power. All ya gotta do is make an armor item with the texture of the tattoos and enchanted with the effects you want. If you want, you can also add a spell or power that equips this armor.

Neat

feder = feather

Now's the part where you tell us what the hell a "Feder" is?

Faloan means Feder in German xD

But WHICH Irish? lol

Gaelic is but one of many dialects.

And doesn't it just mean bird in Gaelic without any specificity?

lol

faolan means seagull in irish lmao

Something you may not know but might enjoy, if you just want to flat out be a Forsworn, the best way is to open the console prompt and type in: "player.addtofaction 43599 1".

kewel...

@Bleda Yeah it should be fine then. The Loremasters are an additional NPC type. I just added them to a few locations; I didn't touch the leveled lists or replace anything so that shouldn't hurt anything. Worst that could happen is they might spawn somewhere weird.

I use the ArbitraryFA - Forsworn.esp pack too. It runs fine with TFL. I can imagine it will clash with your's either, that's why I didn't mention it before. There is a cool notch hilt option in that mod that might offer a solution to the note you made on "joining the Forsworn". I love the Forsworn and am a huge fan of alternate play pathing. If there is a conflict I strongly urge you to get both and (if you're a scripter) crack them open to see how you can fully intergrate them into your mod. I think they are both open resourse but Nexus would know for sure. Sorry for double post, text was too long.

No, the sword was vinella in TFL, so a cosmetic change shouldn't effect it too much. I liked the idea of a change up to the look of the tomb and the new guardians. Blood symbology is inspired. If all you did was tweak the looks and that one quest location, I'm expecting it to run fine. I'm just wondering if the Loremaster you added will bug out in regular Forsworn rebobt interactions.

I think this was a great idea and share your opinions about the lack of depth in the game concerning the Reach. I want your mod just for that celtic looking armor set, as well! lol

@Bleda Huh, good to know. I might have to give it a try then. The only conflict I can think of is if it messes with Red Eagle's sword, but I don't touch the sword anyway so it should be fine.

I played through the "saved game version" several times. Only issue I had with TFL is the voice acting on one of the females is too quiet.

There is a bug where one citizen wont die in the city of Markarth in the final battle, but all you have to do is console command "disable" him. The Forsworn move into the barracks and take over the throne room and it feels like closure once you kill the jarl. ;)

I'll give it a runtrough with your mod and bug shoot it for you, but you could be right, there is some unique code in that mod.

@Bleda Pretty sure "Forsworn Legacy" is a hot unfinished mess, so no promises there, but it *shouldn't* conflict as far as I know.

Does it conflict with, "Foresworn Legacy"?

@Zykoth The lore states that "whoever holds the Sword of Red Eagle would lead the Forsworn". I think, if I did it, I would make it so that the Forsworn will only rally to you while you have the sword equipped, rather than making it a full-fledged faction to join. There are other mods that already do that better, I think.

My thought is that they aren't truly accepting you as leader, more that they are bound by the sword's magic and are forced to follow its wielder.

thanks !!!!!

You must find the book http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/The_Legend_of_Red_Eagle_(Book)

HOW DO I START THE QUEST OR ARE THEY CRAFTABLE??? DON'T SEE ANYTHING IN THE DESCRIPTION, SORRY ........

I just want to say, I think that the Future Plan allowing players to join the Forsworn should be a separate mod. I'm not really interested in joining the Forsworn, personally.

Wellllllllll! I finally got around to trying this mod out and, ah, wasn't expecting that! Good job! (Much better than plain vanilla skeletons!)

really coolmod kinda wish bethesda disgned all of the forsworn like you did it definitly would've made them a much more interesting opponent to fight

UPDATE

-Tweaked a few of the meshes, hopefully this should fix any issues with some of the female armors.
-Modified some textures for the staffs and remade the Eye of Melka (a different skin of the other Ancient Reachman Staffs) so it should no longer crash.
-Added a custom version of the Staff of the Hag's Wrath (similar to the other staffs.)
-Added crafting & tempering to all weapons, including Red Eagle's set. You must defeat Red Eagle in order to be able to craft anything (and you also need the Steel Smithing perk.) Everything should be under Steel, except Red Eagle's set which is under Leather, and the mage set which is under Misc.
-Gave the Shaman set, Red Eagle's set, and the Loremaster Robes some unique enchantments.
-Added the "Silver" perk to all of the weapons (apparently I forgot to do that originally.)
-Added a custom version of the Briarheart Geis that is a unique version of the Ancient Reachman War Axe, and added it to the boss of Lost Valley Redoubt.

Nice mod.

how do you get started on this mod,and when, where ,

@Lord Lazerous Which armor are you trying? I'm trying to narrow down where the problem is.

Soooo what's different ?

the game crashes when I try equiping the armors on a female character

@Ragnarok Well the voices are just generic Forsworn for now, I do plan on doing custom dialogue at some point if I can. I think the Reachman actually don't make any sound at all; it's just Red Eagle that uses the Forsworn script.

There were a few issues with making Red Eagle a briarheart; mainly that the vanilla briarheart mesh does not allow it to be used with the loincloth (they cut the torso and legs to short) so I would have to remake the meshes to make that work. In the tattoo retexture that I'm working on implementing, I DID add a wicked scar over his heart. That should fix the neck seam as well.

As for the Reachman all dropping dead, that's actually how the vanilla scripts work. I didn't want to start messing with the scripts, but that might just be a property I can set so they last longer.

Thanks for the input! There's definitely more tweaking to do.

Hey, love the mod but there are a few minor lore issues, for example the fact that the Red Eagle was a briarheart and that the ancient reachmen still shout 'For the Forsworn!' even though that is just one clan of reachmen and it may be before the Red Eagles time considering they weren't seen in ESO during the interregnum and that was after the Red Eagle. There is also some in game issues, the head and neck of the Red Eagle don't match the rest of his body, and if you just wait a bit all the ancient reachmen drop dead. I hope you continue to work on this, and if you want I could help. I have made a few mods for myself and know a little bit of scripting and how to make quest dialogues, so I could help with having the player join the reachmen. I have never worked with someone else on a mod because I just make them for myself normally, so I am not sure how sharing a project works, but I am sure there is a tutorial on youtube. I sent you a friend request so I can message you on steam.
