🚀 Crew Takes Contraband 📦
What does this do?
This mod allows you to trade certain contraband items to specific crew members if it fits their backstory and the player has progressed each crew member’s story enough to know about them.
- 📜Andreja: Va’ruun Heretic Writings
- ⚙️Dani Garcia: Mech Components
- 🧪 Hadrian Sanon: Xenowarfare Tech
- 🏴☠️ Mathis Castillo: Black Market Antiquities and Stolen Artwork
- 🏴☠️ Jessamine Griffin: Black Market Antiquities and Stolen Artwork
- 👩⚕️ Rosie Tannehill: Harvested Organs
- 🤖 Vasco: Sentient AI Adapters
How does it work?
It’s just like giving Cora books. Talk to the crew member, and the option should appear in their dialogue list if you have any eligible contraband in your inventory, and you know enough about that crew member. (You can’t give Andreja Va’ruun writings until you know she’s Va’ruun. Can’t give Dani Mech components until after they’ve told you about their research, etc.)
Each contraband item rewards +1000 XP. The contraband item is destroyed afterward, and is no longer in your possession for the purpose of scans.
* If you have the Empath perk, this will trigger the Self-Esteem, buff increasing Crit Chance and Persuasion Chance
Why?
This gives players a lore-friendly, immersive way to dispose of contraband, they might not otherwise pick up (late-game, it’s almost not worth the annoyance of being scanned). It provides a reliable trigger for the Empath trait, and hopefully makes you feel good about giving your crew items they can use.
What about <my favourite crew member>? They should be able to take <some contraband>
I’m listening! I added this first batch of crew because some of them have particularly fitting stories for the contraband items. Dani, for example, is interested in illicit mech research, so of course the player should be able to give them mech parts. I haven’t played with all the elite crew extensively yet, so if there are any obvious additions, let me know and I can add them.
*Yes, I know Tane and Sahima would be good candidates, but it will make the mod require Shattered Space. Will add them as an optional file soon.
Compatibility?
Should be compatible with everything. Does not modify any vanilla records. So long as you haven’t replaced the NPC actor entirely, and so long as their original quest still has the vanilla quest stages (eg. “1000 – Player knows Andreja is House Varuun”), it should work.
