On the hunt....

Basically what I'm looking for is some lore friendly mods that add difficulty, immersion, variety, and fun.

I'm not going to be super specific but I do have a simple list of some things that would be nice to have added to my game, but other mods can be recommended at will as long as they meet the general criteria above.

The basics of what I am searching for:

Lore friendly player homes. - I'm a bit of a stickler when it comes to player homes, I've not found one mod yet to be suitable.

What I want in a home:

A decent about of storage but not a crazy amount

The ability to bring over a spouse and follower

Realism in such a way that the home fits well into skyrim and not over the top

A few displays (emphasis on few)

Within an open town or off the beaten path

What I don't want:

I don't want ANY crafting stations

No Mannequins

No gigantic chests

Nothing over the top (It can be beautiful and spacious but make the dimensions inside fit the outside)

No affiliations to any faction or deity

The rest of my mod requirements are much less specific:

- Increased Difficulty

- Extra lore friendly quest lines

- Extra lore friendly random encounters

What I am looking from Skyrim is a game which is challenging, rewarding, interesting, and immersive. I want to lose myself for hours while walking around the country side and discover new and amazing things. I want a home to be a part of the game and not break my immersion with ridiculous over the top displays, and seem as if it was a part of the vanilla concept. Over all I want a game which remains challenging and interesting consistently until I'm at the level cap. The best part of this game is the feeling that you're clawing your way into destiny, and trying to create a existence in a world which is dynamic and uncertain... but these characteristics are lost after the first few playthroughs. With 500 hours into the game I'm wanting something more, it is still one of my favourite games but trying to get the most out of it at this point is taxing.

So feel free to spew out suggestions, and endorse those mods which you feel will suit my ideas and conceptualization.
