Threads of the Webspinner mod?

Post » Mon May 07, 2012 9:13 pm

Hi All,

I have searched to no avail... for a mod that will add some meat to the bones of the Threads of the Webspinner quest for the Morag Tong. I have a hard time justifying the hunting-down and slaying of all the folks that would otherwise by unknown to me if I wasn't reading the UESP wiki.

It'd be cool if, after Eno told you about the Sanguine items, the topic became an option for all Morag Tong members. Each member could tell you a little story about a different item (accompanied by a Journal entry). Something like, "Yes, yes... I recall a story my cousin in Maar Gan once told me... of an enchanter in cave XYZ that had an interesting belt crafted by Lord Sanguine himself." Just something to aim you to all the various items.

Anyone know of such a mod?

[edit - spelling]

I am also interested in a mod such as this. The original quest is near impossible unless you follow some sort of guide, and doesn't even appear in your journal. These are both things I would love to see remedied.

Not sure what it's like but this one, rather obviously, expands on that quest line: http://mw.modhistory.com/download--5667 by Curmudgeon & LostInSpace.

Like I say I don't know if it does what you want but I remember writing the mlox rules for it and it sprang to mind.

I don't think it actually does anything to make the Threads of the Webspinner into any more of a quest than it was before, though, simply makes it possible to do the end part a little differently (namely, you can still complete it after you finish the rest of the Morag Tong quests, instead of having to hold off on the last quests until you finish returning the Threads of the Webspinner). If I'm reading the original post right, the request is more for something that makes the Threads of the Webspinner into a real quest, with some sort of guidence, and perhaps content beyond just having to whack some random people in the game that you can't even really identify except by chance or through an out-of-game guide. This set of quests always drives me nuts; you can't even ask the people if they'd be willing to give or sell you the items, you just have to kill them... and there is little to justify killing at least a few of them.

I'd love to see a mod like this myself. I don't suppose this is something the LGNPC people might one day get to?

Something like this shouldn't be too hard to make, but the writing of it (who told what, which item carriers would sell or give their items away, etc.) would need some work. If I had someone willing to help out in that regard, I think I could cobble something together.
