Skyrim Fenris Follower from DA2

Hey fellow Dragon Age fans!  As a fun little side project, I’ve made a separate Fenris Follower mod for Skyrim.  He uses the same voice actor, Gideon Emery, who voiced “MaleSoldier” in Skyrim, as well as Fenris in Dragon Age II.  As far as lore goes, in Skyrim he’s a Bosmer, former slave of a Dunmer Great House.  He has all the same special enhanced features as AnnaNPCs (the ones not requiring SKSE).

Fenris has a full follower framework, completely separate from the vanilla system, like my Anna NPCs, including riding, sandboxing, set home, meet at inn, and more.  His chat is somewhat limited due to availability of vanilla voice files, and some new lines are included that are not voiced.  I recommend using Fuz Roh D’oh if you don’t already; it’s just a really handy tool for showing unvoiced lines for longer than a second.

Now that most of the planned quests are done – with 3 notable exceptions – I’m going to start adding a few more random NPC encounters to the Commonwealth. Here’s a crew that’s a callback to the Fallout 3 follower Mortar, complete with Army cadences as they patrol the Wasteland.

The scenes are thankfully a lot more robust in Fallout 4, and the engine is fast enough to where all the voices fire at the same time. With Skyrim, you’d have to tweak the timing to account for lag, and even then you were never sure if it varied from machine to machine. It seems like with Fallout 4 everything fires at the same time.

Those who are interested will be able to test this mini-quest and encounter in a few days, just be sure to check the appropriate thread.
