But what's funny is Thogra has an ice spike in her shoulder. So you know, fair. I don't think it was possible for Taleisin to hit Gabrielle because she was so far behind him

Xelzaz Version 1.12.0 - The Dawnguard Update is now live on Nexus and Bethesda.net! Featuring commentary for the entire main quest of Dawnguard, new interactions with followers, new unique model for Xelzaz's Mind of Madness 'reward', Xelzaz's new unique daggers and even a new food item! The update adds over 600 new lines of dialogue! Here are the patch notes:

Xelzaz Version 1.12.0 - The Dawnguard Update

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. 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.

This update features commentary for the main quest for the Dawnguard expansion! Other additions include bug and typo fixes, more conversations with Xelzaz, interactions with other followers and new surprise content for players that are able to find it!

Bug Fixes and Typos

Fixed some typos.

Removed disruptive conditions from some dialogues.

Added a 10 minute timer failsafe for Xelzaz finding Varona that ends the scene should he have gotten stuck.

Moved scripts checking for quest stages of Thogra and Lucifer's (Nebarra interactions) quests to a new player alias, to prevent potential script spam from the game thinking Xelzaz is constantly changing locations.

Tweaked the timer on the script forcefully equipping Xelzaz's Scarf should he be wearing his default armor, to prevent him from equipping it during fast travel.

Sinderion's Journal will now be cleared from the list of aliases attached to the Crimson Nirnroot quest, allowing it to be dropped once it is no longer relevant. (This will not work retroactively.)

Added a check that Xelzaz is following in order for him to be able to handover Roovi and the Propylon to Malborn during the Main Quest.

Additions

Added new greet lines.

Added new goodbye lines.

Added a new conversation about master spells at the College of Winterhold.

Added a new conversation relating to Master Sul after reaching 100+ Relationship and having been told a certain story.

Added new unique daggers (Kukri) for Xelzaz.

Added a new unique model for Xelzaz's Banquet Fork, which now may also be used as a weapon. (In saves that already has Xelzaz with the fork, simply leave it in his inventory and greet him until he says "Hm?" and it should swap it to the new model/weapon.)

Added a new food for Xelzaz to cook: "Lava Foot Soup".

Interactions

Added new interactions with Remiel.

Added new interactions with Redcap.

Added new interactions with Lucifer.

Added new interactions with Nebarra.

Added new interactions with Thogra.

Troubleshooting

Added a line on the Roovi debug dialogue script to tell the player if Xelzaz is in a scene or not. (Translators will likely need to update this script: BPUF_TIF_05F1A5E1)

Quest Commentary

Added commentary for the Dawnguard Main Quest line.

Added (more) commentary for 'Discerning the Transmundane'. [See changes further down.]

Changes

Disabled asking Xelzaz to cast Healing Hands on an injured player if they are a vampire.

Gave Xelzaz his own unique version of 'Reanimate Corpse' with conditions preventing him from raising animals. This should stop him from raising fearsome chickens for battle. It will unfortunately also mean that every creature that has the keyword 'animal' will not be raised by Xelzaz, such as trolls and bears. (On existing saves you will need to go toggle this spell back on.)

Added a check to prevent Argonian players from spamming Jel greetings when meeting Xelzaz for the first time for disposition.

Made Xelzaz's comment about being given Frost Resistance increase his disposition towards the player.

Revoiced some old lines.

Altered the journal entry for 'A Lawman's Ambition' to encourage players to spend more time with Xelzaz prior to bringing him to the Hammerfell Gate.

Removed commentary on getting the (Dragon) Elder Scroll from Main Quest commentary. It is now instead located in the commentary for the quest 'Discerning the Transmundane'.

Made it so the persuasion check at the Hammerfell Gate will always succeed if the player has Telvanni Bug Musk applied (in case people have patches nerfing it.)

Altered line about 'Altmer eugenics' to 'Altmer traditions'.

Added a line to the bleedout scrips preventing Xelzaz or the followers he interacts with to comment on each other going down if they are already in a scene. (This was done to prevent, for example, Xelzaz from crying out about Khash being injured way after combat has ended, due to already being in a scene while combat was happening.)

Upon death or when permanently dismissed, Xelzaz's tracker will now be removed from the quest log.

Misc.

Migrated some of the Main Quest commentary to Discerning the Transmundane commentary.

Added failsafes to Remiel-Xelzaz-Redcap Winking Skeever scene

Xelzaz's Saltrice Noodle Bowl's meshes and textures were modified in order to allow the bowl to be reused for more unique foods. Thus the noodles have a new mesh path. This means you must update the AE plugin if you are using it.

Xelzaz AE Plugin 1.12.0

Compatibility

Changed the mesh path for Xelzaz's Saltrice Noodles.

Added hunger and warmth effect to Xelzaz’s Lava Foot Soup.

Fixes

Yngvor and her companions.

Yngvor: The leader and brain of the group. Has enormous willpower and great potential. She tries not only to gain strength, but also to help people as best she can. Secretly wants to chat with Hermaeus Mora, since her only weakness is knowledge.

Song: Grizzly Bear - A Leader Always Carries a Stick

***

Taliesin: He is Yngvor's first companion and is on "special account." Or is it because she likes him not only as a friend? Who knows.

They often exchange sarcastic jokes. Taliesin especially loves to annoy Yngvor with inappropriate flirting, which makes her blush. But despite his playful behavior, Taliesin takes the girl seriously. He especially recognizes her intelligence and tenacity of character. What Yngvor likes about Taliesin that he is easygoing; as well as his vulnerability, which he does not want to show.

Song: Kings of Leon - Closer

***

Remiel: Yngrid's second companion. They quickly became friends because they have common interests. Yngvor loves to talk with Remi about theories of the disappearance of the Dwemer or the emergence of the Tribunal as new Gods with the help of Kagrenak's tools. In general - about history, research and other “smart things”, as Thogra says. Sometimes they talk so much that the rest of the team gets headaches.

Song: Billie Eilish - All the good girls go to hell

***

Thogra: Yngvor's third companion. The girl has a good relationship with Thogra - she likes the Orc's stamina and fortitude, as well as her unshakable will and desire for victory. Thogra doesn't really understand Yngvor's hobbies, but she respects them. She also respects the strength and integrity of Yn.

Song: Graham Brown Band - Seven Nation Army

***

Xelzaz: Yngvor's fourth companion. At the moment, Yngvor does not have a clear understanding of this Argonian. But she respects his passion for alchemy, as well as his intelligence. They may not have spent much time together, but they have already become a little closer. They often tell each other stories from their lives.

Song: U2 - Sleep Like A Baby Tonight

***

Anara: Why do you guys look so sad?

Remiel: Sit down with us so we can tell you.

*Anara sits down*

Xelzaz : The bench is freshly painted.

#

Lucien: Go to sleep if you don't you're going to hate yourself in the morning!

Anara: Jokes on you. I'm going to hate myself in the morning regardless

Lucien: We'll discuss that in the morning but go to sleep!

#

Lucifer: *Walking into a room* Sorry I’m late... I was... doing things.

*Sounds of running footsteps progressively getting louder*

Nebarra : *Out of breath* THEY PUSHED ME DOWN THE FUCKIN’ STAIRS.

Lucifer: Push is such a strong word. I prefer it called "giving you a little nudge"

#

Thogra: Is- that vodka?

Anara: Yeah

Thogra: Straight?

Anara: No, gay.

Thogra: I meant the vodka, not you.

#

Khash: On a scale from “damn Daniel” to “fre sha vaca do”, how are you feeling?

Caryalind: In between “it’s an avocado, thanks” and “how did you defeat Captain America”, but as a solid answer I would say “I don’t need a degree to be a clothing hanger”. How about you, Taliesin?

Taliesin : Probably “road work ahead”.

Thogra gra-Mugur who just had her life saved:

Xelzaz. My dear. My beloved Argonian Telvanni alchemist. YOU WERE THE AGGRESSOR!!?

He crashed my game getting back up and Eris was abt to beat his ass. Look
