Hello. I've recently begun a new playthrough & decided to be a non-religious thief. Unfortunately i forgot that the whole Noctural-nonsense with selling your soul is something that is not optional. FFS, i managed to slay the bloody World-Eater without that wench's help, why would i need her aid in killing Mercer who is just a regular dude? I got increasingly agitated when i just couldn't say no, so i decided "F**k this nonsense, i'ma find a mod that let's me just say "NO" to selling my soul... Only to find two versions: One that allows me to buy back my soul from Noctural AFTER i've sold it. I never wanted to sell it in the first place, so this felt extremely unforfilling. The other seemed to be exactly what i was looking for.... only to find out it's broken. So my little request would be this: Can someone fix that old mod or make a new one where you can refuse to join the Nightingales?

The situation's like this: I'm running the Karliah/Thieves Guild/ Nocturnal quest line. I'm suffering from the bug where Karliah just walks off instead of activating the gate to enter Nocturnal's sanctum. I've downloaded a mod to fix that bug. Don't know if it works yet, 'cause when I used LOOT to sort my plugins I got an error message to the effect that the mod wasn't needed due to the fact that the Unofficial Skyrim Patch contained the bug fix. Not necessarily so 'cause I've got Unofficial installed but I've still got the bug. Gonna be interesting if I can't solve this problem. I suspect it may mean that the whole quest line is pointless.

SHADOWMARKED - Mod Page This mod completely changes how the game handles the Nightingale armor set and weapons, as well as introduces a new hoods mechanic while at the same time making small alterations to certain aspects of the Thieves Guild. BECOMING THE HOOD The hood mechanics are specifically designed and ONLY function with the Thieves Guild armor sets (Regular, Improved, Leader, and Nightingale). The hoods of these armor sets hide your identity from the public so crimes committed while wearing one of these hoods is not counted as crimes that your character has committed, only if someone hasn't seen you put on the hood. The hood itself is attached to the armor Cuirass of the armor set and no longer is a separate piece of armor, using the spell you can equip or unequip the hood of that specific Cuirass. >> Lesser Power: Thief Hood Arts. LEGEND OF THE NIGHTINGALES The true powers of a Nightingale are only unlocked once the Twilight Sepulcher has been restored by returning the Skeleton Key. At this point your true powers of a Nightingale will be granted to you. >> Lesser Power: Nightingale Armor. The Nightingale armor set is transformed into a power, when you call upon the armor of the Nightingales your current armor set will transform into the Nightingale set until you decide to revert back to your original armor set that you were wearing. There is no time limit for how long you can wear the Nightingale Armor, however it is controlled by the Thieves Guild armor set inside of your inventory. You can only activate this power when you have a full set of Thieves Guild armor equipped, minus the hood. Also, to remain in the Nightingale armor set you must keep the Thieves Guild armor inside of your inventory when you are wearing the Nightingale armor set. >> Spell: Nightingale Blade. A sword that has the same effects as the regular Nightingale Blade as well as has the capabilities of banishing Daedra. You can only use this spell when you are wearing a Thieves Guild or a Nightingale armor set. >> Spell: Nightingale Bow. A bow that has the same effects as the regular Nightingale Bow as well as has the capabilities of banishing Daedra. You can only use this spell when you are wearing a Thieves Guild or a Nightingale armor set. THE SKELETON KEY It is no longer an unbreakable lockpick, the Skeleton Key can now be used as an actual key that can open any lock that you want it to open. It still increases your Lockpicking skill when it is used. The Skeleton Key is the only way to unlock the Sunken Trek, which is a small pathway linking Nightingale Hall to The Cistern. This path is only accessible to the Nightingales as it can only be opened from the Nightingale Hall section. THIEVES GUILD QUESTLINESThe mod makes some small alterations to the Thieves Guild questlines while still retaining what Skyrim originally set up. >> Join the Thieves Guild You must be a thief yourself for Brynjolf to approach you about his plan, if not he won't even bother with you. >> Radiant Quests - Less Grind The radiant quests of the Thieves Guild have been cut down to reduce the grinding element present when trying to restore the Guild to it's former glory. Also, the upgrading of the Guild has now become linked with it's restoration and not with just the completion of radiant quests; finally, the radiant quests will first run through all the Major Holds that are needed to reclaim influence in Skyrim and later will be given at random. ---------------------------------------------------------- Feel free to post in this topic whatever you guys want relating to the mod, I'll answer whatever questions you've got here. Also make sure to check the readme cause I've compiled a list of common questions there already. Your answer might already be found in there. Have an awesome time with the mod!

This is really mod request which would allow you to leave the nightingales and stop being an agent of nocturnal. Who else found it annoying that you had to join the nightingales and sell your soul to nocturnal for a special power which you never use and because of it you have to serve nocturnal in life and after death. I think there should of been away to reverse the ritual or something so you don't have to be a agent of nocturnal and carry on with your character as usual since you never had a choice whether you wanted to be one or not you should be able to leave after you have finished. Its like with the companions quest you have to be a werewolf but atleast they added the option to cleanse yourself like Kodlak and Farkas so you can go to soverngarde if that's what you want. I would attempt to make the mod myself but I cant do it myself because I find scripting to hard and confusing. So if someone could try and make this mod I would be very thankful and I know there are alot of other people looking for a similar mod.

This mod has been broken for a while, no one's quite sure why and the mod author doesn't have the skills to create a solution to the problem, but wants the mod to be fixed. I was hoping perhaps the community here might be able to provide some insight?
