Some stuff I'm tweaking
🕑 Added 2020-07-25 07:02:31 +0000 UTCHello ;)
First of all I wanna say that I'm actually surprised that the noble/princess wench won the previous poll. I have a nice idea for her so I'm excited to make her too :P. In any case thanks for voting, she will be great ;)
Lately I was mainly tweaking how the wenches work combat wise. I read several comments mentioning they are too op for vanilla skyrim :P so I will nerf them and make them "weak" by default in the next update, but, you will be able to tweak their damage in the new MCM if you want them to be like they are now.
The idea like I mentioned before is to make the player stronger while near a wench.
Some auras I set for example:
This one is set to every wench so its not stackable.
-Buxom wench aura
"A buxom wench presence filled you with determination. Increases health, magicka and stamina by 30. Carry Weight by 100 and you deal 20% more damage."
-Yuriana's aura:
"All incoming damage is reduced by 20%. Health is increased by 50. Health is restored by 1 point every second. 30% poison resistance. 10% chance on hit to summon a mystic phantom."
-Ashra's aura:
"Gain 33% more physical damage while Ashra consumes you lifeforce. She will try not to kill you... Get 300 points of Stamina. 3 Stamina points restored every second. 10% chance to get a soulgem when an enemy dies."
In case of Ashra's aura it consists in a "Dynamic" effect where she reduces your health while giving you more power. I think it goes well with her theme. Thats what I'm mainly adding to all the wenches so they are different and gives you a little something unique.
Also as you noticed in Yuriana's aura I'm moving some of their spell effects to the auras so in this case the player is actually the one summoning the phantoms while fighting.
The idea is that wenches will complement different playstyles
For example this is Cathryne's aura:
-Cathryne's Lust:
+30 stamina
+30 smithing
1 point of stamina restored every second
+30 one handed skill
10% chance to disarm the target
In this case her aura is for a player playing as an assassin/rogue.
For Yuriana I set a more general aura but other wenches will give different buffs for different playstyles.
The auras from different wenches will stack so the player could end up being very op too
In any case everything here can be disabled in the MCM so if you dont like the auras you can disable them too.
I'm also adding "Traits" to them. Some wenches can change their traits depending on what you end up doing with them after you rescue/interact with them. For example
-Dibella Follower:
"A Dibella follower is inspiring your words. Gain 5 speech points."
There are also stackable. So if you have 2 Dibella followers with you, you will get 10 points of speech in total.
With the traits the idea is to also use them to allow the wenches to do other things like enabling the "show me the skills of a Dibella follower" dialogue.
I'm also adding a way to convince other wenches to be Dibella Followers if you want them to be like that. Same with other traits like: prostitute, slut, prude, exhibisionist and slave. For now I just added those ones. Any other suggestion is welcome.
Some wenches will have some traits by default but they can lose or gain others, it also depends on the wench, for example some will agree to become prostitutes that work for you while others may end up hating you if you propose that to them. You may need to "prepare" them first for that :P
Like I mentioned the goal is to make every wench unique and react to the player in different ways.
I have some ideas of NSFW auras too but those will have to wait a little more since they are more complicated lol
Anyway I just wanted to share the ideas I have regarding that for the ones that may be interested on them :P. I will most likely do the same with immersive wenches and maybe for enemies eventually so the wenches buff vanilla npcs, we will see ;)
Also before the princess wench I'm going to upload an update of the expansion to include some wenches that are "on hold" too like the vampires I wanted to add, the bandit boss and Tigra, a wench with several stories shared in the discord server by Starlordjoker.
Check the pins in the #your-characters-stories-lore-background channel in the discord server for stories related to her and the wenches ;)
Little preview of the next story too :P
Take care and have a nice weekend ;)

Hi - Where is the right place to post questions?
Kozuke Hajime
what do you turn off? I don't see why they could cause problems with animations since they are set as non-hostile spells or even guards will end up attacking the wenches for that lol Maybe its something related to how those animations are set, mmm still knowing what thing you disable to fix that would help me to figure it out :P

I always turn they buffs off because they seem to cause problems when an animation is running in sexlab defeat or just aroused approach. If they're close by a buff always goes off when an animation is starting so it's always annoying to have them as a steward to my houses from my experience.
Kozuke Hajime
Yeah, I actually was thinking if I should just add them as summoning spells for the player since it can be annoying if its a random thing like you said. In that case people can decide to use the spell or not and it can be a nice reward related to a wench/quest. I will leave some toggles related to specific abilities of some wenches like they are now so you can handle that with their dialogues, I dont want the MCM to have that many things to handle and be confusing :P I will problably remove some skills like the "boobcharge" or other things that didn't work that well (The boobcharge was way too op and I kind of make it useless lol).
Old One
The auras sound great! The only worry I have is whether summoning the combat phantoms will still be toggle-able. I always switch the phantoms off because I tend to get annoyed with summons clogging my field of battle. Hopefully there will still be an option for that, since I do like traveling with Yuriana. Looking forward to the princess wench!
