    Lucien - A Hero's Guide

    Wondering which followers Lucien interacts with, which quests he comments on, which books he can read aloud, and more? Check out Lucien - A Hero's Guide, the hub for articles on all things Lucien.


    If you have any more burning questions, feel free to leave a comment below, or get in touch on Discord or Patreon.

    Also! Since you're here, would you mind supporting one of my other projects? It's an animated TV show called The Treacle People, produced by my late dad in the 90s. It's beautifully made and very silly - think Monty Python meets Postman Pat. I'm trying to revive it as a tribute to him, and it's available to buy on Prime Video. If you're feeling extra lovely, would you be kind enough to buy an episode or two and leave us a review? It'd really make such a difference to me!

    Here's the link if you're in the UK
    And here's one if you're in the US.

    Thank you so much! Happy Skyrim-ing! :D

    Kersplat! Yazoo! Shazam! It's Croc! For a laugh, I made a new, very small scale follower mod, based on the wonderful platformer games from 1997 and 1999.

    I recruited him long ago and forgot what his quest was. I can't find any mention of it in the journal either. Is it a bug?

    Just wanna say I love the mod, and a small (silly) suggestion I have is to add support for a singular character name... Lucien. I think it would be really funny if you were to have him react to the dragonborn sharing his name.

    I am learning to use the Creation Kit and thought I would start with a simple Helgen gear for my own personal use born from a desire to just give myself some non-faction armor at the start for immersion sake (I thought it was a bad idea to roam around in Stormcloak or imperial armor in the middle of a civil war) but after watching some tutorials that make it look so easy (haha) it has grown to a small starting home (inspired by the Hunters Cabin of Riverwood https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/1783) with a dog follower and horse to make player life early game vanilla start a bit easier.  Someone suggested your tutorial series and while it is more advanced than what I initially planned, I would like to actually make a good dog but need some help.  I was following part two and adding the scripts but got the following error when trying to save and I do not know exactly what it means besides that it failed to compile the scripts:

    Starting 1 compile threads for 1 files...
    Compiling "WEC1pleasantviewdogcontroller"...
    E:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Skyrim Special Edition\Data\Source\Scripts\temp\WEC1pleasantviewdogcontroller.psc(152,10): no viable alternative at input '('
    E:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Skyrim Special Edition\Data\Source\Scripts\temp\WEC1pleasantviewdogcontroller.psc(152,38): required (...)+ loop did not match anything at input '.'
    No output generated for WEC1pleasantviewdogcontroller, compilation failed.
    Batch compile of 1 files finished. 0 succeeded, 1 failed.
    Failed on WEC1pleasantviewdogcontroller

    I still have a bunch of other things that I am trying to do and dig around forums and videos for answers but could use some advice and help to make it work because I am an ignoramus with computers and modding so if anyone knows about horses, keys, making custom books and notes, making sure containers added to player homes are safe storage and can have specific items without affecting every container of that type in the game, any help would be appreciated (I already made a mess with my first attempt at this that was a bit of a learn as you go run and I do not want to break things with this run).

      Oh, I just saw that I also copied the copyright at the very bottom of the page along with all the code.  No wonder it didn't work!

    Is there a way to make Lucien stop being so whiny about other followers?  I can't seem to find anything in the dialog options to do.  I manage enough interpersonal BS at work.  I don't really want to have to do it in a game.  I realize that this adds realism for some but for me, it's annoying.

      I don't think there's an option to make him not talk to followers, but I could definitely be wrong :/

    **SPOILER** 

    So when Lucien say farewell after completing Dumzbthar he's gone forever? Its been like 3 in game weeks and no sign of him. I've returned there but he is not anywhere even using detect life.

      If you know his ref ID, I would use the console command player.moveto go to him.

    Hi, enjoying Lucien again. I did notice something while I was poking around in XEdit, there's a typo in the FULL-Name field for JRLucienSpellFlagFrostbite. Instead of Frostbite it says Healing. Obviously nothing major, but since I saw it I thought I'd let you know. Toodles!

    are there any mods that add a playable race to the game that Lucien reacts to, for example a snow elf race mod or dwemer race mod

      I'm also curious about this, but I'm guessing not. I did just start a play-through as a Snow Elf (using 'True Snow Elf Race') and I was just musing how awesome that would be. But my current understanding is Lucien doesn't have any commentary on the DLC stuff including Dawnguard. I wonder if this is still true. Too bad if so. I bet the mystery of the Snow Elves' disappearance would be extremely intriguing to this scholarly companion!

    Okay, so..... here's the Earth....

    No, seriously. I have an issue.
    Great mod. REALLY good mod. I'm not even to Bleak Falls Barrow yet. Began my new playthrough on LAL as a patron of the tavern in Falkreath so I could run into Lucien right off the bat and take a few jobs off the Missives board before starting the main quest.
    Lucien is delightful.

    But he won't wear the flippin armor I gave him (Ryder's Dragonfly Robes). Yes, I have Shiva's, and I applied the requisite patch. But he won't put it on unless I forcibly staple it to him with the equipitem command, and even then only for a little bit. I check his gear, and it's still equipped because I used "1" after the console command, but his noble clothes are what I see displayed at random intervals, and I have to console again with removeitem, then equipitem + 1 again.
    I thought the patch was supposed to fix this? Do I need to go into the Ryder's mod and raise the robes' value to get him to not change back into regular clothing whenever I turn my back, or what? I know how Vilja works (prefers most expensive armor over best protection).... is it the same for Lucien?
