[WCX] Whorecrux (SE+LE) 0.2.1

Quick start/Guide (New!)

 

Intro

For thousands of years the great Aedra Akatosh has gifted the title of Dragonborn to those he deems worthy. Throughout time, these heroes have had a mythical impact on the Throat of the World, and their legend is vast.

Skyrim has had many Dragonborn through its storied past, but there are some who history knows little...

Long ago, Sanguine and Molag Bal, two of the most vile of the Daedra, sworn enemies of the Aedra, conspired together to corrupt one of Akatosh’s Dragonborn. And through that corruption, wicked magics changed her into a creature of debauchery, servitude, and lust. But all of this was only the beginning of their evil plan, and such ambitions rarely go unheeded by their evil kin… 

The mysteries and adventures of this Skyrim mod will tell you the tale of this corruption, and how in one timeline, this corruption forever changed the prophecy of the Last Dragonborn!

 

About This File

Whorecrux is an all new mod based on the idea of “Personality Excretion” through the birth of Whorecruxes. These are new powerful items which contain some of the essence of a Dragonborn, and thus - steal from her a portion of her mystic power.

If the Dragonborn is unlucky enough to be cursed with this condition, her spirit will begin to manifest gems inside her womb. These gems are composed of her magical essence, and in time these Whorecruxes will split away from her through a very intimate event.

These Whorecruxes are not infinite though, each gem tears a part of the Dragonborn away, and if she has any hope to regain this lost power, she will have to find some way to take back what is rightfully hers.

In time, as this mod grows, we will learn that the Daedra had plans for each Dragonborn they corrupted, and while the power of these Dovahkiin could be drained, they would forever be tied to the Fatherland or Keizaal once cursed.

 

Features

Certain occurrences in the game can afflict your character with an effect called “Spirit Fracture”. This is a tiered condition that causes the Dragonborn to start generating Whorecruxes in her womb. 

So long as this condition persists, the production will be continuous, and can eventually have a big negative impact on your character’s powers and abilities.

There is a 20 gem limit to the number of Whorecruxes that can be born, and in time, your character will be able to reabsorb these gems to regain her power and even remove the Spirit Fracture curse if you are lucky enough!

• The SPIRIT FRACTURE effect: this applies a range of debuffs and modifications to the PC based on the level of the effect. Once the SPIRIT FRACTURE quest has started, you will have experience reduced to 50%. The experience reduction effect and other debuffs are only removed once you cure SPIRIT FRACTURE from your character. They progressively get worse as it increases, by level 3 SPIRIT FRACTURE you will not be able to gain experience at all.
  Effects include:
  - Skill reduction
  - Magicka reduction
  - Increased buy prices
  - Deceased sell prices

• As SPIRIT FRACTURE advances, it will have a larger negative impact on gameplay (there are many options in the MCM to control the severity of these effects).

• Pregnancy: If you use Fill Her Up, the Dragonborn’s belly will expand throughout her pregnancies, but even without, the births will still occur so long as you have ZaZ Animation Pack installed. Without ZaZ no animations will play.

• 3 Sizes of Whorecruxes: Small, Medium, or Large… The size is determined while that individual Whorecrux is being created (some details below). Larger Whorecruxes have a bigger impact on the Spirit Fracture effect.

• 3 Types of Whorecruxes: Whorecruxes are born as Sapphire Whorecruxes. These are in turn changed through gameplay into Amethyst Whorecruxes, which again are in turn changed into Rose Whorecruxes…

• Whorecrux Absorption: Whorecruxes, once converted into the Rose type, can be reabsorbed to regain the power lost when they were birthed. Reabsorbing Whorecruxes also lowers the amount of Spirit Fracture afflicting the player.

• Lost Whorecrux Tracking: If the player is not careful, Whorecruxes can be lost. Any of the 20 possible Whorecruxes in the game world will be given a quest marker so you can find them… Getting to them though is another matter entirely.

• NPC Interactions: NPCs in Skyrim will be very interested in these naked little gems whenever they find them, and if the Dragonborn is not on her guard, they may steal them and enjoy the pursuit that ensues.
  Of particular interest for those who enjoy NPC interactions, converting a Amethyst Whorecrux into a Rose Whorecrux requires the special attention of the men found throughout the region…

• Intuitive Notifications with Sounds: One area we are trying to really focus attention on is user experience… This initial release features a lot of feedback for the player, and in the future we will refine this as best we can.
  Many notifications in this mod can have their tense set in the MCM, and these notifications can be easily changed by editing a json file included with the mod

• Customizable Expressions: Whorecrux takes advantage of an often neglected feature in SexLab to allow you to customize the expressions of your Dragonborn as Spirit Fracture advances.

• Many other smaller features that are described in the MCM.

Requirements

1. SexLab

2. PapyrusUtil v3.3

3. SkyUI

4. Toys (LE | SE)

5. SexLab Aroused (any updated version is fine)

 

 

Optional mods / Integrations

1. SLSO (HIGHLY recommended)
   Whorecrux tracks player orgasms for different triggers settable in the MCM. Though it is not essential, the mod is designed for use with SLSO and adds more gameplay to SLSO as you need to avoid player orgasms at times.
    

2. ZaZ Animation Pack (HIGHLY recommended)
   Animations from ZaZ Animation Pack are used for Whorecrux birth from this mod, as well as other events.
    

3. Apropos2 (HIGHLY recommended)
   If you have Apropos2 installed, notifications will be delivered through Apropos2’s system. This is really the way they are meant to be seen so it is a big enhancement for Whorecrux to have this installed.
    

4. Forgotten Dungeons (SE | LE)
   This is used as additional locations to distribute Whorecrux gems when they are lost. There are other mods too that can be used, listed below, but this one is the main one with most of the locations. None of these are required, there are vanilla locations included too.
   WhiteriverWatchRevisited.esp
   UstengravRevisited.esp
   SteepfallBurrowRevisited.esp
   HaltedStreamCampRevisited.esp
   EmbersharMineRevisited.esp
   BleakFallsBarrowRevisited.esp
   vuldur.esm
    

5. Succubus Skill Loss
   Once the SPIRIT FRACTURE effect starts you can no longer gain or lose levels through Succubus Skill Loss. Level loss is accumulated as long as the effect is in place so when you are cured, you will lose more levels the longer the effect has been in place.
    

6. Fill her up
   With FHU installed, the SPIRIT FRACTURE effect can trigger from being too full of cum, settable in MCM. Additionally, as long as your SPIRIT FRACTURE level is lower than 4, you will continually fill with more cum, again configurable in MCM.
    

7. SexLab Survival
   Cum addiction works as a modifier for gem dropping. It is also used as a trigger if you have been cum addicted and ravenous for too long.
    

8. Devious Devices
   DD works as a good enhancer for this mod generally to augment different trigger effects, it’s not good to be belted and plugged while filling with cum or at 100 arousal for example. Expressions will not be updated while wearing a gag for compatibility and filling with cum from FHU will still work while belted.
    

9. SXP (REQUIRES PATCH IN DOWNLOADS)
   If you are using SXP the mod will not allow you to level up with it and your experience gain will be reduced once the SPIRIT FRACTURE effect has started. As your SPIRIT FRACTURE level increases, eventually you won’t gain any experience and the whole time you will be losing experience you already had, again increasing with SPIRIT FRACTURE level.
   Ensure you have installed the patch from downloads if using SXP BEFORE the SPIRIT FRACTURE effect has started.
    

10.  Milk Mod Economy
    Orgasms from milking are detected for use in forced birth and triggering SPIRIT FRACTURE. This is so that you can’t simply lower your arousal by milking, which would make it easy to avoid triggering from arousal.
     

11.  SlaveTats + SlaveTats Cum Textures/Replacer (just CumVariations v1.4.7z + CumFacial v1.4.7z)
    Adds additional cum tattoos on SexLab male partner orgasm in scenes involving the PC. Separate tattoos depending on sex act.
     

12.  Spank that Ass
    Minimum masochism feature when spirit fractured.

Installing

Just install through your mod manager or drop the download contents into Skyrim’s data folder. You can install mid playthrough with no issue but I don’t recommend running loot or sorting it into your load order until you start a new game. 

Install latest version SE or LE. You need to install both the assets download and the other.

- I have also included some triggers for SL Triggers, if you use that. They can be used to trigger a gem birth or to add an orgasm to the counter.

Keeping Whorecrux at the end of your load order will not cause any issues, the only potential conflict is listed in the ‘Technical’ section below (4).

 

Updating

You can just straight upgrade from previous version to next without any issue. See the technical section below if you have made your own configurations.

If updating and there are new expressions files, you may need to import from SexLab’s MCM. This will be explained in any update.

 

Technical

1. If you are adding one of the mods that Whorecrux integrates with on a save that already has Whorecrux running, turn enabled off and back on again from the MCM to re-register mod events.

2. You can edit the expressions included with and used by Whorecrux from SexLab’s MCM. They are listed as WCX Ahegao, WCX Sexy and WCX BiteLip. If you update these and export them, make sure you move your export to its own folder in your mod manager or make a backup before updating Whorecrux, so you don’t overwrite your exports.

3. You can easily edit all the notifications used by Whorecrux. These are in /data/wcx_json. If you change this make a backup or move to a separate folder in your mod manager so you don’t overwrite in an update.

4. If you have another mod that edits shrines, you may need to make a patch to combine those entries  in ESP. This is the only known potential conflict from this mod.

Future Plans

Whorecrux is a new mod, and there are many possible plans for the future, some of those include:

• Custom Whorecrux Meshes: Each type of Whorecrux will soon have a custom mesh, and each color a custom texture, to closely resemble artwork which helped to inspire this mod!

• Whorecrux Crafting: Special armors, weapons, potions, jewelry, and even Devious Devices can be crafted using the magic of Whorecruxes. The Dragonborn could decide to create these on her own if the benefits outweigh the cost...  But more likely, if a Whorecrux is stolen, some NPC may find a way to take advantage of it’s magical essence. Some of these items may have very unique properties indeed… 

• Whorecrux Destruction: If a Whorecrux is ever destroyed by any means, a part of the Dragonborn is lost forever. What will this mean for the PC, and is there any way to recover?

• Shattered Spirit: The effects of Spirit Fracture can ravage the player and causes many problems for her as she travels the world of Skyrim… But a far more sinister effect may befall her if she is not careful and allows Spirit Fracture to progress too far…

• Sentient Whorecruxes: Sometimes a portion of the Dragonborn’s persona is transferred to the Whorecrux. These new gems have a huge variety of implications to both the Whorecrux, and the PC.

• Long Lost Whorecruxes: This condition is not new, there have been Dragonborn in the past who have succumbed to this terrible fate… Who are they? What did they leave behind? Are there other Whorecruxes to be found? Are they guarded? Where are these past Dragonborn? Can these other Whorecruxes be absorbed? Are any of these Whorecruxes sentient? Have any of these Whorecruxes been crafted into magical items?

• Whorecrux Seekers: This curse has ancient roots in the realm of Skyrim… Hagraven Covens, Daedric Cultists, Dragons, Goblins, Treasure Hunters, and all manner of NPCs and creatures may be after the newest Whorecruxes being born into the world, and those which have been lost for generations.

• Whorecrux Powers: Some Whorecruxes enter the world imbued with unique powerful effects. And sometimes special powers can be attained at the cost of potent Whorecruxes. Will the Dragonborn create any of these? Are there any already in the world?

• Immersion and Lore: The world of Skyrim will soon feature many notes, diaries, journals, books, recipes, and other tidbits which expand the story of Whorecrux. If you enjoy this aspect of mods in Skyrim, we have big plans in this area!

• Loading Screens: Expanding on the promise to incorporate more story into this mod, we will be creating a library of custom loading screens which give details about Whorecruxes and how they fit into Skyrim’s history and world.

• Non-Dragonborn Spirit Fracture: In the future, for players who wish to play as a non-Dragonborn in their game, we may introduce a simple event that must happen before they can be cursed with Whorecrux gems.
