    You can find a list of all the quests Xelzaz has comments on here.

    From version 1.12.3 onwards you need to have Backported Extended ESL Support installed if you aren't on the most recent version of Skyrim.

    Struggling to find Frost Lilies? A guide to all of them can be found here.

    NOTICE: Any characters that are in the process of, or that have completed the Volkihar questline will have Xelzaz abandon them after updating or installing the mod. This will happen even if Xelzaz hasn't been recruited yet, Xelzaz will simply continue on to High Rock on his lonesome. This will happen on new saves with the update installed too. If you wish to have Xelzaz along for the Volkihar questline, please bring him along when you are joining the Vampire Clan for the first time.

    i am playing on modded skyrim VR (with script extender vr version) and can't seem to get the mod working (xelzaz is missing as well as the note at the bar on a new save)

    idk if there's a specific version i have to download, something is conflicting, or it's just unsupported as i have not found anything related to vr on this mod

    please help as i really want to try this mod :)

      As is specified on the core file, you need to use BEES on older versions of Skyrim. I do not recommend using old versions of this mod.

    I love Xelzaz. I love characters who don't or won't compromise their own ideals, even if they're not perfectly moral themselves. He's been a real (fictional) friend to my character and I'm glad to have him around. The ONLY reason I wouldn't have him around next time is how cumbersome it is to have a small army trailing after me, but even then ...

    By the time I triggered the Falkreath sequence, my character had grown to like him enough that she was willing to help, and his response felt natural. By the time we got to the gates of Hammerfell, his decision to postpone his journey onward also felt natural.

    I'm glad I double-checked the comments before starting Dawnguard - but given what I know of him, I wouldn't have been terribly surprised to have him be ... let's call it Upset ... at me if I chose to be teh evulz. Honestly, with him and Remiel and Gore around, I've had to sincerely rethink a lot of what my character's morality and internal world should be, and that's to the good, I think.

    It makes Skyrim feel Real.

    Been testing Xelzas out. He equipped dual swords and for some reason his power attack is really slow and I don't know why. Could it be because I switched from MCO to BFCO now?

    Heya, Oblivion just came out and I've been wondering-- how did you come up with a name like Xelzaz for this? I kind of want to make a marsh based name for my Argonian character in it, and I was wondering if there was any advice I could get. Late happy Easter btw :3

    Hi BluePwnsU
    thanks for the wonderful mod. I currently play a whole playthrough with Xel in the party and it's a lot of fun. With forum search disabled, I need to ask myself and appologies if that has been asked before:
    Is the Sinderion's Journal in any way touched by your mod so it becomes undroppable even after finishing the Crimson Nirnroot quest in Blackreach and the Farm? And will it envtually "unlock" again?

      It would seem so.
      I've now made it so the journal will be cleared from the quest aliases once it is no longer relevant to the quest, allowing it to be dropped.
      The book itself isn't actually touched by the mod, the quest upon starting will simply match the book's reference to what it is in the Vanilla Sinderion quest. However it is ticked as a quest object, thus it cannot be dropped by the player from their inventory.
      You could use the drop console command, something like |Drop NN01SinderionsJournal 1| perhaps?

      Thanks for your reply. I can live with the journal in my inventory for now. only a minor inconvenience. But good you got it sorted.

      It unfortunately won't be retroactive if you're already past that part of the quest, as the stage being set is what runs the script to clear it from the aliases.
      It's also likely going to be just a little while before the update is out, hopefully before summer ends.

      Sorry for necroing this post, but when exactly should the Journal be "free" again? I am using the latest version, but also in this new playthrough, I can't drop the item after the Nirnroot quest is finished (quite a long time ago).

      Or maybe not finished yet?I am on stage 23 of the quest with only 30 remaining. The quest is no longer in my quest journal. But I have not yet finished all other quests with Xel. Do just need to play on?

    Been playing around with Xelzaz for a bit now and I must commend you on the work you've done.
    He is a lovely lizard to travel about with and a fascinating character to get to know. Actually learned quite a bit about Argonian culture from him.
    And travelling with both Remiel and him is a special delight.

    So kudos to all the work you've done on this radical reptile.

    Hi Blue! This isn't a request but I am curious if you ever got around to playing some big quests like Undeath. I know you mentioned you were curious to try a couple years ago but I just wanted to know if its something you haven't got around to or simply don't feel like it fits.

    Love Xelzaz, he is probably me favorite follower bar none.
  10. as soon as i got him i let him walk through the hammerfell gate i didnt know he'd leave the game my ass was just trying to be polite and help him :skull:

    Xelzaz has become as integral to my mod loadout as Legacy of the Dragonborn has, and he's such a fun companion. 

    I have to ask though. During the time in the Forgotten Vale, when picking Gleamblossom, Xelzaz has a short interaction where he samples one to learn its properties and I wanna know what other alchemical ingredients you can find that he'll do that for, if any. It's an awesome little bit of additional interactivity that just adds to my enjoyment of him as a character

    Is his armor aviable to players? How can one obtain it ?

      It is not.
      You can use Alexmancer's Telvanni Spellsword Armor for a near identical version of his default armor.
