What I mean is that the reason could be a motivational why such mods exist. There are plenty of mods trying to add a very specific element to the game and do so to a very specific place. As such we end up with housemods that are essentially torture dungeons, villigares totally populated with gay men etc. What I am after is something on a grander scale where whatever someone is after can fit into the whole in an immersive way. I can give you an example of immersion: I consider myself to be a eye candy person. Now if I want to see exposed ladies in the game world, well one of the first Skyrim mods I noticed essentially made all the women naked. That didn't work out well since it was just to much. What I really want is something where nudity and partial nudity are more common. I tried to strip down the tavern wenches but it was difficult with my skill level. I tried to get outfits consisting of just a belt to avoid the problem with a dagger just being attached to the hip and so on. I ran into problem with things like the climate, that need a tropical or always summer mod. Still the men do not dress down and even if I didn't want to expose them as much they still would need lighter clothing in the heat. Basically the game are highly resistant to the changes I tried to implement with my limited knowledge. So much trouble for trying to add some nudity and some exposed breasts. Especially Bodyslide keep objecting to my attempts since most people wear clothing, cloth, Those outfits allow for very little such editing and the result is almost always bottomless rather then the opposite. Dang it I grew up frequently seeing topless women on the TV showing people in places in the world where that was considered normal. There are such places in the world where the local culture are like this. I even seen two different documentaries about the same South American tribe where nudity was essentially the norm. One of them was even hosted by a former member of the famous British Monty Phyton group. So in totql I want more mods where things are added in in an immersive way if an activity are going to be normalized.. There are for instance plenty of slavery mods. Adding slavery to Skyrim is one thing but to do it in an immersive way there need to be some consideration about where they come from. This is especially important if the slavens are almost all young women. Either you would need Skyrim to become a hub for slavery and these girls are abducted from the other provinces OR the sexual ration of 1 to 1 could be twisted, something doable in a fantasy setting. If there are more girls the boys born, impoverished parents may choose to sell some surplus daughter. This actually happens for real so it would not be odd at all. Human trafficking pretty much run on that troupe so when freed those girls are not eager to be sent home.

I see potential in a mod such as this. Especially if you can appoint your followers as guards. But the idea of manually destroying the convoy could be better if there was also an option set up conditions for this to happen automatically. Maybe setting up a convoy could be something like: Go to the jail in Whiterun, offload prisoners, collect bounties, return to base. Set up after defeating a bandit camp to escort the bandits smart enough to surrender. The next step would then be to actually have the bandits in the jail awaiting processing. Punishments could range from fines, floggings to execution depending on the severity of their crimes. However this processing part would probably be another mod entirely. Maybe the prisoners are not actually prisoners sometimes but people that are guarded for their own safety? Imagine finding an npc on the way to somewhere and you know that the chance that said individual live to get there is slim and you could appoint a follower or two to guard them. The military could do this to drag new recruits to a garrison to be outfitted and trained. Or they could BE training. Imagine a caravan where they are more like running as an exercise "guarded" by a nasty drill Sargent.

In the setting of Skyrim/Elderscrolls sacrificing people are really only done by evil cults. Historically such things has been more of a dark streak of what many others do. Also when it comes to religious fanatics people are willing to lay down their lives for their cause. So what if the gods, even the good ones, aedra and daedra alike accepted such sacrifices as long as they where willing sacrifices? Step two is just a note that the act of sacrifice could be seen as a way to remove many of the taboos surrounding the remains. People would still be upset by a cult that abduct and eat people but the remains of willing sacrifices are santified so this do not apply and Namira have no say in the matter. Historically, when it comes to animal sacrifices the remains are often cooked and eaten and this still happen in some animistic practices today. Actually the sacrifice becomes a reason to hold a feast. I suppose that cannibals could do this as well.

This mod is shaping up I see, judging from the pictures. A bit too much bondage for my personal taste but that is just me. I would personally prefer fewer restraints and gags and reserve those as punishment for disobedient slaves. Imagine a cage holding several unrestrained and ungagged slaves and one disobedient one in a pillory outside and you get the idea about what I have in mind. Anyway, an idea dawned on me, special npc's that are experts in non-damaging punishment (cannot damage the goods), so they use a cane rather than a whip. Imagine the aforementioned slave in the pillory being caned on the buttocks from time to time to get the idea. The absolutely easiest way to implement this would probably be to just let a npc carry a cane around and then hope that someone skilled in animation do a mod for the actual caning act.

A proper mermaid mod is probably very hard to do. And it is freezing cold in Skyrim anyway. Anyway, I envision mermaids as, well awesomeness SHOULD come with a drawback. As such I suggest that mermaids should not be able to transform into humanoid form unless certain criteria are fullfilled such as: MUST be dry forcing the mermaid to pretty much move like a horker when on land until dried up. Further, transformation may be a learned ability that not all mermaids have. Any wetness more than the lightest of rain would force the mermaid back in her true form. Further, once dry a mermaid will need to get submerged in water regularly or she take damage, basically a mermaid player would need to keep an eye on a timer. The most important of all, there need to be mermaid infrastructure in the world. I have seen too many racemods that add a new playable race and your character are the only one around of that race, perhaps with some braindead followers that really are counted as nords of some weird reason and never use their racial abilities. As such it could be nice with a community of mermaids somewhere, some mermaid housing, perhaps in the form of an underwater cave.

Since I am not attracted to these kinds of mods (defeat/abuse fetish) my personal perspective would be that if you are defeated to the point of being killed then instead of dying and needing a reload you end up in a cage somewhere. What your captors do with you from that point would be connected to other mods not necessarily related to any fetish so for instance some bandits could turn you into a slave and stick you into a mine to work for them. Staying to enjoy being abused for those so inclined or plotting your revenge and escape are another option.

While I am not into these things myself, I do notice that many are. Maybe it is time to look into if the game can be tweaked into accepting a third gender? basically "femboy" would not be an odd variant of male or female with all the trouble that involves but its own thing with its own specific bodies and its own animations do when you are in Racemenu you see a third gender option. I wouldn't use such a mod but I suspect that it could become popular.

Those look good but the first one will literary be a pain in the ass to wear when sitting down due to that ornament.

I suppose you mean things like strap-ons and "pushed aside" versions of panties. Thinking of it, if there is a conditions mod for what version of a set of panties to wear then that mod could be reconditioned for common non sex use as well like a visor equipped helmet where the visor falls down when in combat.

These kinds of mods are not really my cup of tea but aspects of this playing in the background would be nice. With that I mean things like "people eaters", not just Namira cultists but also traditionally living bosmers that are indeed supposed to be cannibals but also creatures such as trolls and other predators. With that I mean, they DID make the effort to create a desecrated Susanna the Wicked body, but I have never seen any half eaten by trolls bodies. Bethesda only use unhurt corpses and skeletons for those situations, nothing in between. It would also be nice to step into a bandit camp to encounter some revolting sceans that really wipe out all lingering though of mercy for the bandits then wiping the place. Some camps have cages in them, but it is rare to find anyone locked into them. One of the few such prisoners I found are to my knowledge Skyrims only non-hostile spriggan. Rape is a horrible thing to do but it is a useful narrative event. In Dragon Age, playing the City Elf origin it isn't even shown, just alluded to but it felt good to tell the king straight to his face that I killed an Arl's son for raping my cousin. Simply put it feels good to to go full on Punisher mode on the bad guys from time to time.

I do not believe that the orcs of Nirn are walking fungus unlike some other orcs...

A conversion that pushes the technology in Skyrim forward to the point that the Skyrim Civil War look like the US Civil War could be really fun. But it is still a fantasy world, so magic exists. The reason armour was rarely seen was mostly due to costs and weight. Still during the Napoleonic war heavy cavalry units could wear curiasses. As such some armour could still be used but it would probably be of the cuirass and helmet types. Also during the US Civil War the first machine guns appeared. Military air resources rapidly appeared after Montgolfier's famous balloon flight so by the time of the US Civil War balloons where in used for battlefield surveillance. Jule Verne's Mysterious Island actually begin with the protagonists stealing such a balloon to escape from a besieged city during the Civil War.

What we need now is the next stage where we get a "create preset" button to get something to import straight into Racemenu.

Do not hesitate to accept help from those that do have these skills. Either following their instructions or let them do that part of the job for you. You found your niche of what you want to do, you cannot be expected to master everything yourself.

I would like to see further development of this, both the base mod and separate, independent mods. There are now an SSE that use the same bodies for all the nymphs, the same as all females use. This do take away some of the uniqueness but also solves some problems. I have seen on the Nexus that there is at least one follower mod with follower claimed to be a nymph, but I do not know if that one is reliant on this mod. Things I would like to see is some look into what happens when a nymph has a less than ideal father, it is hinted at this being bad, but it would be nice to have this shown. As such suggest I suggest the concept of the Dark Nymph. These Dark Nymphs are just as hauntingly beautiful as the others, but they tend to have a darker mindset and when they reproduce, they are likely to make the problem worse with their choice of fathers. We see that some of the Nymph mods followers are essentially roleplaying having a mean streak, the Dark Nymphs, would not be roleplaying this however, they would be the real thing. If a Nymphs became a serial killer, it would most likely be one of these. The leader of a dark cult maybe? Or an assassin? That sort of thing.
