Can you sleep with Alistair before you find out the truth? I didn't think you could.

As others have noted, you certainly can.  My elven mage did not find out about his identity until finishing the Ashes quest (if he is not in the party when you travel to Redcliffe, you don't get the cutscene) and by then they had already been in the bedroll.

I actually like doing it this way for certain RP circumstances.  I don't think she would have gotten involved with him if she had known, and I didn't want to send him to Morrigan for his first time (metagaming a little there).  Plus it gives the scene with Eamon and Teagan nice drama.  Talk about a WTF moment!

Zesty: "My tent. Now." Which should be followed by Alistair's "Bossy!" line. XD

ROFL!

My thought:

PC: My tent. Now!
Alistair: Yes, ser!

I REALLY like the prince one, but that should only be available if he has told you the truth.

You can use the conditionals on the player's lines to show/hide them (on plots&scripting tab), so you could still use it when it applies and have more generic alternative otherwise. If i'm not mistaken that particular flag is ALISTAIR_MAIN_TOLD_TRUTH in his genpt_alistair_main plot file.

Hey, you don't mind if I use your stuff, do you? I really want it to be compatible with ejoslin's mod. You did an AWSOME job, by the way. Thanks so much!

Agreed! It's a hard one. How about "Let's relieve some tension."

Shouldn't he respond to that with "Can't it wait a bit, i'm in the middle of some calibrations"... Posted Image

Oh, lol, one of the lines should totally be "Remember when I said being a prince was thrilling..."

What I want to know is why doesn't Leliana freak out when she sees it....can you just see her freaking out over Alistair picking "The Maker's Rose" lol

Yeah, except I just read all the voice over notes in the toolset.  Cailan really kind of doesn't care.  >.>  Kinda pissed about that now.  I think sometimes I'm happier not knowing stuff.

Oh?  So he's just brushing you off?


Examples:  City elf:

KC:  "One day I'll see those walls taken down.  Your people have suffered enough."
VO:  (A political promise.)
KC:  "You think I care nothing about these things, but I do.  I suppose trust will only come with proof."
VO:  (A little vague.  Trying to reassure without committing anything.)

I think this is understandable, though.  He can't make a commitment to anything specific, certainly not in front of a person he hardly knows.  And I wouldn't expect him to be really interested in dwarven conditions- there's nothing he can do about that anyway.

Not that I expect Cailan would have led great reforms for the elves, especially not with Anora on board.  Maric didn't do that, either, and Alistair only marginally (but he does seem to have tried to make changes).

I've always thought the rose he picked was Leliana's rose, though there's no way to prove it.  And I don't think he picked it while she was watching.  And even if he had, I think she would have understood once this sentiment was explained.  And, again, while there's no way to know/prove it, for me, the rose never withers or decays.  It's always as if he just picked it.  <3

I'm half way through The Calling and I have to say I can see a lot of Maric in Alistair, more so than in Cailan.


Oh my goodness, yes.  I've always said Alistair is Maric's true son, which is quite remarkable, actually, given that Alistair never knew him.  Theirin blood breeds true?  It's what makes me completely confident that Alistair will be fine as king.


Absolutely.

I think it just really indicates he has no intention of doing anything.  Unlike the firms promises he gives the HN, where it's basically 'Come hell or high water, Howe will hang for what he has done.  and I'll use the whole damn army if I have to.'  I know it's a totally different situation, but I think it speaks to the difference when he truly committs to something.  He's not really interested in city elves/dwarves.  Understandable, to a point, but still...

Stays in the inventory and he carried it from Lothering to (wherever you get it) and its as fresh as when he picked it...

Maker's rose alright...Glad Leli missed that one. Ninja loving stalker bard pissed at you NOT a healthy thing...Who knows what body parts she will want to snip off and put in a jar.Posted Image

No problem, if you can make it work go for it. The replacement cutscenes use different filenames rather than overwrite the default ones so that should probably make it easier to link them in such way, hopefully.

Yeah, I noticed that and it is way cool. You are awsome, my friend. Thanks again.
Also, I need some testers. Not right now, but hopefully soon. I don't think I will be able to sleep until I get this done now. Any volunteers?

This whole Redcliff dialogue is just perfect when finding out about Alistair after sleeping with him.  I loved it, it fit.

Eamon and Teagen are discussing putting Alistair on the throne and my pc comes along and goes:

PC: What about Alistair?  What do you mean?  ( I really wish these words could of been in bold lol)

Bann Teagan: You don't know?

Alistair:  I, ah... meant to tell you when we were approaching Redcliff, but... (he seems so uncomfortable here, not sure how to respond lol)

Arl Eamon:  Alistair is King Maric's illegitimate son.  He is Cailan's half-brother and has a claim to the throne.

PC:  What why didn't you tell me this earlier, Alistair? (by now she's starting to see red lol)

Alistair:  I never thought it would come to this.  When Cailan got married, everyone thought it was best to just... have me step aside.  It was a relief, actually.

Alistair:  I don't want to be king, I never did.  Even when Cailan died I... I guess I hoped something else would present itself...

And then Eamon but's in with that it's your responsibility thing.  I so wanted to hit Eamon by then.  My pc didn't know if she should be pist at Alistair or feel sorry for him for being put in this position.  I wish there could of been an option to tell Eamon to stfu, Alistair and I needed to talk for a minute without his responsibility bull**** lol.

Ya she was pist by this time lmao.  Here's this man she's fallen head over heels with and she finds out that he's not who she thought he was.  It was a different way of rping.  I don't know if I'll ever do it again but it was definitely different.

One Observation I had: In Origins at Ostagar, when you first meet Cailan (with Duncan) - neither one of you bows to him - which one would do if meeting a King. However - in Awakening, when Alistair walks up to greet your PC, you and others bow to him. Why would you bow to King Alistair and not Cailan? I seems inconsistent to me.

I think that all of the first time sequences should remain at the vanilla sex scene, whether initiated by the pc or by him. Does everyone agree?


Yes.


Agreed!

Hehe yea I did this on one of my HN playthroughs.  Was a truly epic WTF moment for her.  Ultimately I prefer taking him to Redcliffe though for that bastard prince talk he gives her just as you enter.  Some of the dialog there can be really sweet and its very different if you aren't romancing him yet and just felt jarring without him in group since I take him everywhere I possibly can.

Cailan is very attractive - I just hate his VO. It makes him sound like a pansy-ass.

Lol, I figured the high priestess would volunteer. I am very hopefull. Sadly, I may not be able to include BSC in the first version. I also was wondering if you have a save game right before Alistair asks the pc to bed that I can borrow.
