Dragons Keep
A Player House / Castle / Boarding School Mod
Note: The TKAA patch is designed to take full advantage of version 3 of TKAA (either one), & will cause CTD with version 1 or 2.
Dragons Keep:
This mod is my answer to a question that bugged me ever since my first playthrough – What can be done about all those orphaned kids running around Skyrim? Being limited to adopting only a few kids still left several children without a place to call home, & ensuring their health & well being seemed like a noble endeavor at the time, so I decided to make a boarding school mod to house them in…
This mod will allow you to send up to 12 orphaned kids off to boarding school, where they will join other kids in class, recess, & other school activities. This mod also includes a private home that you can use as your own if you so choose, as well as a private quarters area on the top floor of the school, & plenty of unassigned beds for followers on various parts of the school, if you need them.
Overall, there is room for 36 adult followers, 12 child student followers, a spouse, & six adopted children. And, to make things more realistic, there are plenty of added NPC’s who are training, attending classes, working, playing, relaxing, or otherwise involved in many other endeavors one would expect to see going on at a fully functional boarding school.
The dialogue system/MCM is designed with a twelve child recruitment limit in mind. That means you can recruit six boys & six girls total, because there are only six beds available for each in the dorm rooms.
Dragons Keep will also work with the more popular adoptable elf & beast race children mods, & will allow you to even recruit the vanilla children who are not orphaned. So, if you’re one of those players who wants unruly children out of the picture, you’ll be able to send them off to boarding school where they will quickly learn some manners. The dialogue system turns off all adoption dialogue as long as they are students, & returns them to their previous state if they leave the school.
You will not be able to use this dialogue on any of the children in the Honorhall Orphanage until after the “Innocence Lost” mission is completed, otherwise it would break that quest & the orphans go missing. Aventus is included in this, in case you use another mod to make him adoptable.
Enjoy!
