Heritage (2023)

---

You died, and now you continue playing the game as your child. Your skills will be passed on, with a debuff, along with the quests and homes. Playing as your child, you can take final revenge against your killer.

This mod redefines the concept of death in Skyrim. When the player dies, instead of being forced to reload an old save game, he will be brought to a random place where he will start the creation of his son/daughter (even if the text for books/quests still has to be made dynamic). From that point, the player will play as him, and so on.

The last player's character, son/daughter, will have stats similar to the father/mother but debuffed and kept his father/mother's properties (houses, horses, etc..) and quests. All the items of the father will be lost, but if someone killed him, the son/daughter would be contacted by a courier with a letter that will start the REVENGE quest; if the player is killed not by an NPC but in an accident or similar the courier will still come, but no search will start. On this quest, the son/daughter can kill (if not essential) his father/mother's killer and take from his body the weapon the father/mother had equipped when he died (if he had one), now renamed "Mother/Father's heritage" and the gold the father/mother had at the moment of death.

Quest items won't be removed from the player (to avoid breaking the quests since I have found no solution yet), but all the other things will be put in a chest in the Whiterun Guard House (as explained in the courier letter). This idea will happen no matter what. So even if you don't have to do the revenge quest, you can always recover your items.

The player debuff process concerns the player level, which might be slightly decreased (max five levels), and a maximum of 10 points might reduce all the player skills that are higher than 20. These numbers might change, but for now, it works like this.

As for every mod in its early stage, mainly because we are dealing with the death mechanic, I strongly recommend starting a new game.

Iirc fertility mode's children can grow into adults. It would be interesting to see it combination with this mod

[PaddyBoy18]

I really like the idea behind this mod, and I look forward to seeing what this mod grows into.

[Chlodwig]

Nice Idea but considering how often I die in a playthrough

maybe after the First Character (father/mother )died  if a Son/doughter dies it should be next his brother/sister and not doughter/son (which would be the grand children of the First Character)

 

In my case in average we would talk about 30 generations.

[Lucioyarity]

It happens everytime you die! Aside from that it is awesome, i use death alternatives so i want to ask if it is possible to create a version that gives you only one chance.
Could you? Thank you and i wish you well
