Now in beta, the follower duo Beatrice and Ahni

Over the past week I've been toiling like mad on this project.

A duo of followers, Beatrice, a devoted Breton mage, and Ahni, a cunning human-like Khajiit with dreams of wealth. OStim 3P integration is planned! The point of this beta release is to gather feedback in the early stage of development.

This project has gotten big, but not quite there yet! I feel like I need to work on animations for a while, so if you're interested, please help me by giving it a try while I work on animations!

Current features

• Two custom voiced and lore accurate young female followers. You can find Beatrice in Riften, during the day she'll be at the center of the city, on the night at the Bee and Barb tavern;
• High poly head, unique outfits, high quality textures, supports BHUNP and 3BA;
• Fully voiced follower functionality (set follower, wait, follow, trade, do favor, dismiss) with varied (10 different) responses;
• When dismissing you can have them stay at a vanilla player home;
• Varied detection and combat voice lines;
• Context-specific idle commentary that increases intimacy (the intimacy value is still not used for anything, though);
• You increase intimacy by exploring Skyrim together.

Planned features

• After a certain Intimacy level is reached, OStim features are unlocked;
• Love confession, a brief conflict that leads into them sharing the same boyfriend (the PC);
• Immersive scene starting: non-sexual scenes can be done in public. In private spaces, sexual scenes can be started, such as a private inn room that you can invite them into and a new exterior world space, a camp by a waterfall! (The camp is finished, just not used yet!)
• Beatrice and Ahni also have desire and autonomy! They will occasionally perform romantic and sexual interactions with the PC!
• Talk about their backstories and general topics;
• Great expansion of voice lines and world interactions, as well as conversations between the two NPCs, in order to make them great companions for journeying through Skyrim!

Characters

• Beatrice Auric, a loyal Breton with a passion for the arcane arts, dreams of becoming a powerful wizard. She's been diligently studying magic despite limited resources and seeks the guidance of a more experienced adventurer to fulfill her dream.
• Ahni the Strayed, the sassy and ambitious Khajiit, craves wealth and luxury and believes the life of a wealthy adventurer is the key to opulence. She's resourceful and cunning, always on the lookout for daring escapades that could lead her to riches.

The feedback I'd like to gather from this release

• Are there bugs or inconsistencies?
• Do you think the characters are enjoyable?
• Are there other custom follower features that you wouldn't like to play without that could be implementend in this mod?
