This is a project to add color and life to Skyrim through three dimensional NPCs. Each character is integrated into the world, with a backstory and an extensive dialogue tree to explore. Many of these characters are fully voiced by a talented team of over 40 voice actors. The dialogue choices allow you to role-play, providing humor and depth to each conversation. You can be a jerk or a jester, a white knight or an assassin, as the most important character is you. Note that dialogue trees are not actual trees. There are no branches coming out of the characters’ eyes. Just their mouths.
V O I C E A C T O R S
The roster of voice actors have been amazing. There’s too many to single out, but without them this mod would be like one of the silent movies which everyone thinks is so awesome now because they can be used as a functioning sleep aid.

W R I T E R S
Most of the writing and song lyrics were written by an army of primates on Sholes and Glidden Typewriters then fed through a monkey translation software. It’s an inexact science, but I have no problem taking credit for all of it. After all, who’s the one who cares and feeds for them, all while adjudicating the occasional “Feces War?” —>This Guy.<— Of course, there have also been excellent contributions from higher primates as well, whom I have credited below.
Christian Gaughf – Griffith, Morrigan
Jay33721 – Averna, Iorel
Progressive_Stupidity – Olette
Roarian – Relic (Dialogue and Quest)
Additional credit to Jay33721 for the inspiration behind Relic, Dagri’Lon, and Fjona’s Familiar, Progressive Stupidity for contributing some random NPC commentary, and DOPR5 for writing the TES variation on the old “Knock the Timbers” pirate shanty.

Roarian scripted the first 3 quests and did all the programming voodoo while I twiddled my thumbs and played with dolls. Somehow, I managed to learn a bit of scripting on my own, so we will see how that develops over the coming months.

We’ve recently added a couple testers to help make sure the new quests are free of bugs and typos and the occasional chupacabra.

Like your site and info, interviews. Loved the post about saving time you writ.
Truly enjoy Interesting NPC’s and even went so far to start looking at tutorials for quests and stuff. But I am more of a tinker with mods than a full fledged modder myself.
Love the followers, although I only had Zora for a longer spell. I really loved when Hjoromir was a complete coward, even though that was a mistake, ha ha.
Still, when you opt out of conversation at the start (maybe you got attacked) you will miss out on the conversation leading up to the standard menu for many characters. I will try to note them down if it is something you want to address?
Looking forward to your increasing accomplishments with the CK.
Cheers!
Only just started playing Skyrim and hearing the dialogue of the npc Ureni and that loveable Dog has made it entirely worthwhile.
Wonderful project and best of luck with its continued development!
I cannot even contain my excitement for this. From what I’ve seen and read about it so far, I think this will be just about the perfect thing ever for my now-very-modded skyrim.
