Amazing mod!! Just a question: I have exausted the approval system but the dialogue for mariagge doesn't pop up. What are the requierements for mariagge?
I have really enjoyed this mod so far, its my favorite of your group. It gives a strong sense of who she, that hint of darkness here and there sells it.
Here are a few things I noted that are inconsistent with her backstory.
She states she lived her entire life in Darklight tower, however she has opinions about things she shouldn't know about, such as falmer, dwemer ruins, and even the main quest. This breaks many story telling aspects about her life. Maybe instead of her making comments, why not give the player the choice to ask her about these things?
Secondly, when she brings up the Thalmor, she states that their blood still froze the same insuiating that she has killed in the past. However, when you first encounter her, she says she wanted out of the coven due to the fact they were asking her to kill, which she was very much against, considering she'd kill her own mother to stop the senseless killings that were taking place by other members in this castle.
Just some things to note. For those cosindering getting this mod, the mod author takes many artistic liberties that stray away from cannon and in-game info, which in my opinion is not appreciated. However, I do like the fact that this character now has more life.
So the Hags told her about Esborn, an NPC that not even the Thalmor knew about? Again, I appreciate the immersion she tries to give off, but it is out of place. She shouldn't know about many of the things she talks about. Another thing worth noting in the same line of thought, her opinion of Lydia. She states that Lydia is the best women she's ever met, when she only just joined the party? lol. I'm nit picking here, but I think this should have been better thought through with your comissioner.
She participates in the quests, so it is assumed that she knows what the player knows. It is very unpractical to make a new player line for every piece of information to tell Illia.
that is actually true...it is really funny to see a follwer you just met say something about a quest you did 30 hours ago and he had no way to know about it hahaha, like dark brotherhood stuff or nightngale stuff...but it would be really hard to account for that... this happens a lot with every single follower mod.
Yeah, it just kinda broke the immersion this mod goes for. But as stated, would it be hard to account for this?
Just set in conversation topic in game: *recount stories and quests* and have it fade out to black with the message "The follower recounts all the quests and side-quests you have done until now and has more questions now than ever before."
Doing this would allow the player to still immerse the follower into their world whilst also being friendly to the idea that the follower doesn't know everything.

The Hags studied them to get more power
she states that their blood still froze the same insuiating that she has killed in the past
Their blood freezes the same way human blood freezes, which means the Thalmor are not superior
they were asking her to kill, which she was very much against
She is against killing innocents
So the Hags told her about Esborn, an NPC that not even the Thalmor knew about? Again, I appreciate the immersion she tries to give off, but it is out of place.

Your second point is valid.
Cheers.
