Your brother sounds like a remarkable man! He's as weird as they come. An academic polymath with multiple degrees, a horse wrangler, enjoyed fighting wildfires, and at one time had prepared to take the orange robe and become a monk. His favorite hobbies include electronics, dabbling in high explosives and deadly chemicals. He's been my sage counsel for years, always somehow managing to get me to turn about and take a good hard look at myself. "What you know and think you know can be the greatest impediment to learning; which is. after all is said and done, the real purpose of life."

And this appears to be the end of the Rigmor mod. We delivered the messages to the two army head honchos and reported back to the Khajit in Riften. He spoke about a mine, gave a warning, said he has marked it on my map. No such mark is to be found. Meanwhile Rigmor went to take a nap and after waiting 24 hours up to one week she stays asleep. Waking her up she offers no dialogue, no menu, and goes back to sleep. Any suggestions? Continued in the next edition mod? Seems to me Rigmor works well in shorts.  |

The Rigmor mod is pretty complex, and sometimes it requires you to stop in EXACTLY the right spot to move a quest forward.
Your Rigmor above looks like Lara Croft with a Notre Dame football helmet on! :-)

Or after the dialogue and Rigmor is asleep I'm supposed to stand on the third roof tile from the northleft during a sunny midnight tryst session. With all the other checking, balking, and tripping over itself I'm not surprised. The mod needs intensive care babysitting every inch of the way. Some NPCs or locations get quest pointers, some don't.
Lara Croft... be nise. Several corpses gave up their underwear for that outfit. She is definitely not an armor clad type and most of the other foof just isn't for a petite cutesy.
Weird brother. His college days. What do you get when you combine 10 kg of 95% nitric acid, 25 kg of sulfuric acid and 600+ rolls of toilet paper? A house and garden invisible under a TPing endeavor. Victims wife came home and just as she was about the spontaneously combust the paper vanished.

Just forking grrrrrreat. Retry #15 or so, chat with Khajit in Mara temple finally worked. Instead of him vanishing I followed him outside and he completed that quest and started the next with map marker. DOWNSIDE, Rigmor befriending a caged bear a couple of quests back has wonked out the wild animals AI. Some bears are non hostile, and when we left Riften all the deer in the immediate area were hostile. After Rigmor chased them across the scenery for 15 minutes I summoned her and she cooled off. So now each wild animal encounter may result in her dashing off towards Los Angeles or Tatooine. PFFFFFTB.
And off we go, following my usual game play mode, bright sunny day and gawking at the scenery...
Well it was sunny about five seconds ago.
Along the way we had a chance to cuddle a bear...
Without near flat terrain Rigmor moved at the speed of a banana slug stuck in the middle of a salt flat. The trip to Ivarstead took nearly an entire day what with retracing our steps every few minutes to move the slug along. No girl, giving me bambi eyes does not make up for your inability to step over a rock smaller than a rabbit.
Along the way I assisted Serana to change into her risque belly dancer outfit and dropped her off at the inn in Ivarstead. Maybe make the place a little less fraught and gloomy, and possibly add some funds to our coffers. Drag-on-grrrl was starting to cop an attitude with a constant stream of frivolous chatter and amorous come ons. Her 'tude grew by leaps and bounds when, in spite of our cautious sneaking, Rigmor-on declared war on a nearby bandit fortress. She was given a justly deserved spanking, Dragonborn style. She can't negotiate an ankle high rock but she can climb the battlements of a fortress?

How do I hate thee, countless are the ways. Fade To Black, five times. Controls taken away from the player. Blurred screens melodrama. I extend my sincere apologies, Mod maker(s), but you aren't even a shadow of a playwright. The effort put into the mod is admirable and it is enjoyable. But the dialogue, an uphill slog to droll. Banal, hackneyed, shallow, slopped together in weak attempts to show Rigmor is emotional but fails, leaving her as a childish brat much of the time. The Dragonborn is forced into a somewhat callous even more shallow role of a B- movie plot extra. Unabashedly borrowed from Jaques, I thank it. More, I prithee, more. I can suck melancholy out of a song as a weasel sucks eggs. More, I prithee, more.
Suggestions: Rigmor, Young at heart, but profound of mind and purpose. Her insights betray her steadfast resolute nature.
Dragonborn, A mighty warrior is known for prowess and skill upon the battle field. A true hero is all that of the warrior, while kind, gentle and introspective when circumstances allow. Shrewd of judgement, observative and sagacious.

Joining the DawnguardRudi and Company were aware of the vampire threat, and decided to help out the Dawnguard. They did not bring Yumi -- Kirsikka made an impassioned plea to leave her behind, saying "if she's turned into a vampire, I'll never forgive myself!" Yumi, for her part, seemed kind of relieved she didn't have to go on this adventure. Staying home, helping Nono, and playing with Nina would be just fine, thank you very much. So off our heroes go, deep into Dimhollow Crypt, to see what the vampires were after: Rudi draws a bead with his sweet crossbow, although he soon realizes his bow is actually a better weapon.  Nami gives a vampire the freezer treatment.  The group reaches is goal. "I think I'm supposed to move the braziers around or something," says Rudi.  "Is this another one of those stupid puzzle things?" asks Poet.
Replies Nami: "Yes, so we'll probably be here a while!"

OldRPMDaddy "Rudi draws a bead with his sweet crossbow, although he soon realizes his bow is actually a better weapon."
Mentioning this because I am already in a foul mood. By the time the average player gets around to Dawnguard with some smithing perks those crossbows are junk

They really aren't that great, are they? Rudi makes sure to upgrade his bows from time to time, and passes them out to his gang as well. Rudi's bows have more punching power than a crossbow and a higher rate of fire, too.

You want me to trade in my 420 damage super speed Zephyr or 508 damage dragonbone soul sucking bow for this piece of crap?
Incite enemies to come charging at you down a hallway. Zephyr, the Skyrim alley sweeper. Oh look! A tasty grand soul for my collection. Hot key 3 and come to mamma you putz.
