» Wed Nov 14, 2012 3:48 am Previously known as "Shrine Donations", this mod has been retitled as the new update now does so much more than that!
This mod personalizes the shrines to the 9 Divines - each god now requires a small donation before granting their blessing, and the cost for this depends on how well you are following the teachings of that particular divine in-game. If you follow the teachings of a particular divine, the blessing will still be granted for free - but it's not always easy to do this with every god!
This mod has been tested and seems to work fine, but the usual mod disclaimer applies - this mod hasn't been tested thoroughly so please keep a back-up save before installing and don't continue with your current character until you are sure this mod causes no issues. If you find any issues please let me know.
I'll be updating the mod description tomorrow, but in the meantime an example of a new shrine would be:
ARKAY
Standard donation of 25 gold required.
Upon receiving a blessing, a message says "You have shown respect for the balance of life and death - Arkay grants his blessing! Arkay wills you to help return those undead spirits back to the cycle, and frowns upon acts of necromancy." This acts as an explanation that killing undead is desirable and acts as a warning not to follow the path of necromancy too far.
If you have the necromancy perk, the offering will be refused with the message "You have travelled too far down the path of Necromancy! Arkay rejects your offering!"
If you are a vampire (technically it checks for the player having Vampire's Sight) the blessing is refused, with the message "You are a vile undead creature of the night! Arkay rejects your offering! Your spirit must return to the grave, or you must return to the world of the living before it is too late!"
This gives the player the option of being cured of vampirism and doesn't lock the player out - Vampire's Sight is removed from the player upon being cured, and the blessing will be granted again.
If you have killed more than 25 undead, then Arkay encourages your deeds by accepting just 10 gold as a donation.
If you have killed more than 50 undead, you have pleased Arkay greatly and the blessing is granted for free.
This is just one example - each divine has their own conditions and benefits of worship.
