Hey all

I have been working on a player owned castle for over a month now and I did enough progress on it that I am ready to present it and ask for opinions about a few things.

The castle is located all the way up north on the top of a mountain in the middle of the sea, the castle is rather small compare to most of the castle mods on the nexus.
Instead of focusing on make it huge, I decided to focus on giving the player a real feeling of ownership by allowing you to hire npcs for it and add events for it.

What I have done so far:

-30+ guards that patrol your castle night and day ( half of them patrol at day and the other half a night) -You can also use 7 of those guards as followers.
-added a cook that offer you different meals almost every day (they are also different depending if you ask for a meal in the morning or later in the day.
-Cleaning ladies that will clean the 2 first floors for you and the third floor if you summon them to your chambers.
-2 bards who will sing and take requests (one inside and one outside).
-A blacksmith that sells you equipments.
-A stable boy who will sells you horses and dogs.
-Librarian who sells you books and spell tomes
-Teleports from and to the 5 mains cities of Skyrim.
-Ability to summon some of your servants to your bedchambers.
-Expert Trainers for 1handed,2handed and archery.
-Ability to place a shrine of your choice in the chapel.
-Bathing,Holy water and Clean hands buffs.
-Squire who can be your follower.
-3 merchants who sells their wares outside.
-Npcs awareness of you being their lord/lady (they will be custom voiced with dialog that will show you that they know who you are.

What I have left to do:

-Make the npcs hirable for a fee and the ability to rehire a new one if they die ( guards).
-Make you have to pay to unlock certains rooms.
-Quest and dungeons leading to the castle.

Events such as:bandit attacks,parties to have with your skyrim friends, taking prisoners(with trials), visitor at the court.

***The events will probably be done as an update, feel free to share ideas of other events if this mod interest you.
