Not enough wenches or too many wenches? :P

Hello :o

So finally I made the Elisif replacer :P I wanted to give her a more "mature" look trying to "maintain" her vanilla look. I'm still unsure about the outfit, maybe she could wear a dress like Nesyahris or maybe not use a skimpy Jarl outfit but still wear something using the wench body.

Currently you can use the curse on her but I didn't test how this could affect quests related to her when moving her around, I suppose they will work but she would be naked or maybe in some cases get another outfit again. 

I think her being a slave should be more a private thing, maybe when cursed the player gets a bounty and a quest to claim her starts there. I'm mainly worried about how this could affect her quests, maybe a bag over her head like with Ethel could also be a solution :P

I also didn't set her to work as a combat follower since I think she shouldnt be able to fight and I think the main thing for her should be to become a "slave" so wip for now ;)

I also wanted to make replacers of other npcs that I think should be considered buxom wenches. I think some should be added to the mod by default.

Susanna the Wicked

Susanna the Wicked was always one of my favorite npcs so I always wanted to turn her into a buxom wench :P I think she should be added to Yuriana mod mainly because her quest is pretty much a reference to Jack the ripper and it could work really well with the mod. I could expand her quest more since I don't think any mod touches it.

I don't think that many mods do something with her since she dies so I think adding her to the mod won't be much of a problem.

Haelga

After posting the previous story I think the mod should have her own version of Haelga, she is a Dibella Follower and knows Yuriana so she should have several dialogues talking about her. She is also related to the Beggars Club and Brad and that should be something mentioned in the mod. Technically it could be just dialogues but I think her being a buxom wench fits her, she has the slut trait :P

I also tried to keep her mature look and maintain the "bitchy vibe" that goes with her dialogues. I dont usually make milf/mature npcs but I kind of like it ;)

Svana Far-Shield

Since Haelga should be a buxom wench I think her being one makes sense too. She also have several comments about what is to work for Haelga so she could potentially have more to say about Dibella, Haelga or other wenches like Yuriana. 

Not as important as Haelga but I think it would be weird if she doesnt look like her aunt.

Valerica

I changed Valerica as well but I'm not sure about her looks, I don't want her to look young but I think the outfit just doesnt go with her. I kind of have the same feeling with Elisif that she should be buxom but a little more covered.

I will most likely edit her more. I don't plan to add her to the mod so most likely just Serana, Elisif and Valerica would be in the wench replacers esp since they have several replacers already and are not exactly related to the mod that much. At least in the case of Elisif she should have dialogues about the posters or what is going on with the captured wenches but they are mainly dialogues that can be added without affecting her or quests related to her.

In the file I uploaded all of them are included but I will move the wenches I mentioned to Yuriana mod. I think that won't be an issue. Another one I would like to add is Lydia but just for the replacers esp. After that I will probably make a poll or wait what people think about having too many wenches :P

Immersive Wenches and Yuriana 

It seems that most people like the idea of rescuing/capturing immersive wenches and in general people enjoy the last update but one opinion that I noticed is kind of divided is that maybe there are too many buxom wenches now because of turning immersive wenches into buxom wenches.

I usually thought that there isn't such a thing as too many wenches :P but I get that having a lot of buxom wenches with a similar body makes Yuriana or the other wenches less unique even when other female npcs dont look like them. This also could be a "problem" when using Immersive Wenches expansions (deadly, hateful, forgotten, judgement wenches) since those will also become buxom wenches.

So I think the way to deal with that is to make a patch to either make immersive wenches have vanilla bodies by default or the wench body by default (I didnt decide which yet :P) BUT I also want some immersive wenches (my favorites :D ) to be Buxom Wenches by default so I will most likely choose 10-15 immersive wenches to be "considered part of Yuriana's Wenches". Making this patch is not exactly a priority and I would like to know what people think about this.

I will most likely change some other wenches a little like Thally, she was made messing with Yuriana's face so her face has some blocky/odd parts because of it. Still keeping (a little) the big nose :P she also has an "odd role" in the mod so checking that too.

Currently I'm mainly tweaking some scripts and fixing some things reported like the mismatching face/body color. I think I have no choice but to edit all and each wenches manually lol so I will also take the opportunity to tweak their looks individually. I also would like to give another go with the high poly head versions since dealing with the "brows bug" the wenches have with their expressions showed me what I was doing wrong when trying to set high poly faces for the mod and having weird/bad expressions.

There are also some wip quests in the beta that need more tweaking (Ethel, Arabella, Khythaela, Elora, Supay) I'm replaying the mod to check missing voiced files as well and some other stuff like the book stories/info and the covers, next update will be mostly finishing those. My main objective is to fix/complete/finish everything that needs some work so I can finally move to remake Enslaved Inquiry quest and the slave system, those are the main things I want to change/improve so I no longer call the updates betas :D

So I bought Skyrim Again...

I recently bought Skyrim the board game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNUYzXrAvPo and I'm actually enjoying it. It's basicaly a prequel of Skyrim that starts 25 years before the dragonborn appears. I was surprised to find out there are actually mods for this too and after playing a little I miss the wenches u.u

So I think this could be a cool way to add some quests/characters related to the mod (especially some wenches' moms or at least info related to them :P )

Buxom Wench as a character "race"

I made this for fun since the cards are not that "hard" to make and to check if I can use the characters to play, as I mentioned I'm a noob playing it or even playing board games so I still need to check if that is balanced enough, that's the hard part :P
Eventually I will most likely make a print and play version of the cards since I will need that too. Still learning about this stuff.

Some card examples of Inigo follower mod made for Skyrim board game, there are followers too so I will try to do something similar but with wenches ;)

Intro/encounter card for his quest:

This is just a small side thing I will do for myself or anyone who is interested. Maybe I could include the files in the mod or add the cards to the mod at least to collect and check. it may become a good/fun way to plan some quests since the quests cards are basically text and the dragonborn timeline is also part of the board game so Yuriana or other wenches could be added too ;)
For now I will try to learn more about the board game and understand it more lol

Thanks for the support and for reading, let me know what you think about the recent changes of the mod and the thought of "adding too many buxom wenches" maybe becoming a "problem", maybe adding a way to sell/get rid of wenches could be a solution. I'm curious about what people think.
As always suggestions or reports are more than welcome ;)
Have a nice week!

P.D: Susanna is quickly becoming a favorite for me, I will probably add several stuff for her or at least try too... ;)
