The Lady Serah of Clan Volkihar + MILF Addon

[zigster999]

Got most of the way through Act 1 before having to start again with the new LOTD patch.  Thoroughly enjoying having Serah with me.  She is indeed OP.

 

Her dialogue is excellent, having general comments, comments about lore, flirty stuff, and comments about some of the other women we run into in-game.  Two comments I especially like and would love to see happen, even though I know they never will.  The first is 'High Queen Serah', and the second was after her reading 'The Great War', getting inspired and suggesting we raise an army to take over Tamriel (I'd settle just for Skyrim).

 

Great stuff here and yeah, as I said, I'm having a lot of fun with your girl.

Thanks! I'm glad to hear you enjoy her company.

Those comments are more of suggestion for which mods you can try with her. There are a few dialogues similar to that, like "Sailing the world", "Curse Island", or "Settle down as farmer". Though most of the war mods are pretty buggy, it's was a spectacle when she mow down 10 peoples when I had Conquest of Skyrim.

I have a lot of mods and have tried installing your mod. My configuration crashes with vigilant installed no matter if I have your mod or not. Do you just use assets of vigilant or is your mod totally dependent on it? I am not really interested in vigilant so if i could install it without the esp and your mod could use the assets would this be possible?

I do. Some of her attacks are from Vigilant and a dozen of her "Post Vigilant" dialogues are depends on which stage you are on Act 4. 

 

It's not a total dependency since it doesn't use that much from Vigilant. It's more of an essential for her in narrative sense. I think you can get away with using a dummy esp with the same name and delete the small number of references.

Thanks I will try that during my next playthrough.

Is it possible to change her to BHUNP?

Just finished Act 4 of Vigilant so thought I'd write a note on the Lady Serah.  What a girl! 

 

The combo of Vigilant and Lady Serah was the best and most harrowing time I've spent in Skyrim.  Serah's comments added tremendous depth to the playthrough, and she also added hope when things looked most bleak.  Literally was like playing with a long term partner, each of us providing support to the other along the way.  I've played Vigilant before but it was never like this.

 

Barely touched on her sexual side as it didn't seem appropriate considering the circumstances.

 

I left her in her original armour and using her original weapons rather than upgrading anything.  She is definitely overpowered compared to my character, but that came in very handy any number of times when we were flooded by bad guys.  But she was also capable of being badly beaten, ending up on her knees with bad guys whaling on her. 

 

This mod really needs to be spread far and wide just on the merits of its storytelling /writing alone.  While the addition of daughter Mia is a nice touch, it's also not really necessary.

 

I do hope you have plans to expand on Serah beyond what you've given us now.  She's pretty awesome.

Thanks for the in depth review! I really appreciates you taking the time to write it. Since no ones else seem to discussed her Vigilant arc on here, I was worried that the colorful spells and languages might have overshadow the underline theme that she provided. After reading your post, I can rest easy knowing that all the pieces are there, for those willing to look deeper.

 

Everything you noted hits all the crucial highlight of the mod. She was designed to be someone that have been with you for a long time, through thick and thin. A few have asked why Vigilant was a hard requirement, and to be honest, it didn't really have to be one. Beside assigning where she say her lines, nothing else was changed. That's why, I'm incline to say it's a "narrative requirements". For me, it's the contrast of experiences that makes a character compelling. A lot of followers are very one dimensional. Either they're all fun or they're all grim. Vigilant acts as the shadow to Serah's "brighter" behaviors. A dark and cruel story that hopefully, when the player emerges on the other side, they'll appreciates her more than before. If she was all sex and lewd, I think that would be pretty boring and I wouldn't even be motivated enough to make the mod. Same goes if she only has Vigilant theme dialogues.

 

It's good that you didn't do anything to her when you're in Act 4. It's actually intended to be that way. Coldharbour is the prince of domination's domain, and all her sex dialogues were changed to reflect that in act 4. She won't say no to any your advances, but her responds are not inviting.

 

She's designed to be a reliable follower, strong but not invincible. She definitely can solo most things, but you'll pay the price if you overplay your hand. It give the player a viable option to play as a full support role. Which is an extremely hard task to do with other followers on high difficulty.

 

As of now, I don't have any plans for future expansion. Mia's add-on is kinda optional the conclusion to it all. Though Mia's theme might be a bit "opposite of regenerated", it support Serah's ascension theme. Where she understand the true state of the world to doesn't give a f***, but at the same time does; a "Un-Zero-Sumed" state for lack of a better word.

Sorry, I can't help with BHUNP. I've tried using the body before, I couldn't get it to work on either of my system. If you got the foundation set up, I think you can just overwrite the body nif in the Meshes folder.

Hello and thanks for a great mod. But i have a problem with custom animations for Serah, they simply don't work. I'm using OAR which is supposed to be imporved version of DAR, and i didn't really tested if any other follower have the same issue except for Daumbra, her custom animations work fine for her. So i'm not really sure if there is any incompatibilities or it simply don't work with OAR.

Can you give me more details on what exactly is not working? Is it T posing, crashing or not appearing? She only has custom animation for sword and/or dagger (dual) and 2 hand great sword. If you give her something else, she just use default animations. If you're using MCO, you got to replace her animations with compatible MCO set. Her animations are suppose to only be for OAR and DAR without MCO or the other one (I forgot the name). Else she will only perform 1 attack at a time and a lot of her other animations will pretty much never plays.

Oh yep. I am indeed have MCO installed, i guess thats probably can be the issue. But i'm not really sure which animations will be compatible with her and how even make it compatible.

For MCO, I use this animation https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/88401?tab=description. Replace these animations with the one in there Mesh/character/.../10006. She won't use 100% of the animations since its originally inetened for player and not NPC. But it should be smooth enough. Remember to run nemesis or pandora with MCO path.

I missed playing Skyrim, but didn't want to do a serious playthrough. So I made a simple messing around modlist on SE. Noticed some minor oddities on flat screen that I didn't on VR, so I added these changes. I wouldn't proudly call them updates, more like replacements just because I wanted to see thicc mommy Serah going around chopping down enemies lol. Definitely out of place for Act 4, but kinda fitting when you're just roaming skyrim. Glad to hear you still have her around even after Vigilant.

She'll be staying on my modlist for the foreseeable future.  Too good to uninstall.  Some of her voicelines are hilarious and they don't get stale.  You've created a very well-rounded custom-voiced follower.  Mia's not really my cup of tea so she's living in Riften permanently.

Totally understand that. The add-on is not for everyone, even for me. I created it and I don't even have it in my latest SE set up. I've test other personality for the Mia before ending up with this. The problem is that, Serah being how she is, a normal family dynamic just doesn't work well for her. If Mia is all innocent, then it's going to clash with Serah's innuendos comments. If she's too much of a rebel, then it would still clash because Serah is kinda already the rebel.  That's why the add-on end up being like that.

 

It's good that she's staying at temple though. A life time of priesthood might do her good lol.

 

Sucks because I want to add this on Nexus. But because of the add-on, there no way they'll allow it.

Ignore what happen the last 2 days. I was trying auto log in to LL using saved info from another site. If you don't know what I'm talking about, everything is good now.

The MILFS mod establishes interactions between the pc and three characters (possibly more, if you add maids), including NPC-NPC banter. Your mod seems to be overwriting files from the daughter mod, which is fair since that's the purpose, from the mother mod, which is also fair, since you're changing their relationship, but also from the sister mod - which I can't quickly imagine what the purpose is, maybe just repurposing some scripts? So that character should not work as intended, if you use it together with your mod, since some of its scripts are being overwritten to a different ending. It's hard to choose, when you like the originals, especially since you're giving up on one of the family members from MILFS. It would be nice to see a future development where you managed to integrate the full MILFS mod, adjusting to the new family relationships but without throwing away any of the dialogue built into the original, including interactions with other Shadowman mods and shouts!

Yes, Serah was originally built on top of the sister original scripts. In the add-on she's suppose to encompass both the sister and the mother personality. When I tried the original mod by itself back then, there seem to be an issue with the dialogue when one of the character tries to start a dialogue with both of the other characters. It always freezes my screen for a good 5 seconds or so. So combining both role into one works both narrative and functionally for me. I have no plans on integrating the full MILF mod.

 

All of Shadowman's mod and shouts should still works as intended since I used his script as foundation anyway.

How would I go about changing her skin textures? I'm using SynthEBD to distribute textures to all npcs and  everytime I remove Serah's armor her body textures get a glitchy block look.

I don't use SynthEBD so I'm not 100% how it's distributing the skins. You place all the skins you want to randomize in a folder and let it pick at random? If so the problem might be because she uses a modified version of pure suka skin that's specifically for that body. If skin texture is not compatible with her body mesh, it might misaligned. Do you have a picture, it more beneficial if I can see that you mean.

Random question, for some reason Mia is spawning in with a face that looks like a potato and bad as well. I am very confused as to why.
