About this mod

Tweaks made to Calcelmo's radiant quest.

Permissions and credits
This mod makes some changes to Calcelmo's quest to bring him a dwarven item.

I didn't like that the quest could target most of the things it did nor the problems that came with those items.

The quest will now only trigger for an item called "Drained Lexicon". I added it to the Dwarven Centurion deathlist at a 25% chance to drop. I didn't want to add it to chests or vendors, you have to beat a Centurion to get a chance at getting it.

That's all.

Mod is flagged as an .esl


Technical side:
-Added a new keyword "DwemerRarity", the quest checks if an item with this keyword enters your inventory now instead, it no longer demands the item comes from a vendor either. You can use this to add more items that could trigger this quest if you wanted. 

-Drained Lexicon is simply a copy of the Blank Lexicon. It weighs 5 units and is worth 250 gold. If you take it to a vendor, you won't get much at a low speech level. Calcelmo will offer you x2 for it or x2.5 if you pass his speech check.

-Adjusted the Letter from Calcemo and fixed the typo from vanilla that misspelled his name.

-Renamed the quest internally since you don't 'buy' the artifact anymore.


Issues:
-If you manage to pick up multiples of the item and go to turn it in, Calcelmo won't give you the dialogue to hand it over. Simply drop it on the ground and pick it up again. The items will unstack and he'll accept it. I was told SKSE might be able to prevent this but I don't know and don't really care for this issue. If it bothers you, feel free to upload a fix or ask me to upload it.
