DarkSpace did wonderful work on this, and it really does add a lot to the mod to literally hear his voice. Thanks for the kind words!

Download link: http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=39636 Jo'Virr is a Khajiit archer and enthusiastic tea-drinker who hopes to meet a traveling companion. Jo'Virr does not require any external mods, and has partial voice acting. You can find him in Skingrad, generally in or around the Two Sisters Lodge. --- Jo'Virr has all the basic companion features: - He sneaks when you sneak; you can ask him to draw his weapon when you do, or to wait until combat begins. - You can access his inventory. He will replenish his ammunition if you ask him to. - He will follow you or stop following you on request, and comes with a summoning spell in case you get separated. - He'll switch automatically to melee combat if an enemy draws too close. Technically, you could use him for a fighter / shield, but he's really built more for an archer. Extra features: - Jo'Virr will comment on your surroundings, his background, and current events as he follows you through Cyrodiil. - There will likely be more comments added in future updates-- I wanted to get this released before I could second-guess myself any more. - He'll hand over the occasional gift of food or drink. - He'll never, ever hijack your adventures-- Jo'Virr is meant strictly as a support character for your PC! - Jo'Virr is partially voiced, thanks to the talented DarkSpace. His random comments are silent by design, so as not to interfere with actual plot-related sounds and/or dialogue! Thanks to: - DarkSpace (Nathan M.) - DarkSpace is the voice of Jo'Virr-- check him out here! - Rowan Leeves, for her constant support & feedback. Jo'Virr was originally built for her! You can find her mods here: http://tesnexus.com/modules/members/index.php?id=656505 - EruditeDragon, for feedback & ideas. - Picador, for his assistance with the Valtierro mod, way back when. I've re-used his script corrections in Jo'Virr. - Emma (of Vilja fame), Rsdnt-Evle (Companion Neeshka), & Cutthroat Mods (CM Companions). I examined & re-examined their scripts to finally learn how to do some adequate scripting. Installation: - Put Jo-Virr-NS.esp in your Oblivion\Data folder. - Put Voice\Jo-Virr-NS.esp into your Oblivion\Data\Sound\Voice folder. - Activate Jo-Virr-NS.esp. - Go find Jo'Virr. If you can't seem to track him down, just go into Two Sisters Lodge-- the quest will update, and give Jo'Virr a temporary quest marker. To uninstall: - Delete Jo-Virr-NS.esp from your Oblivion\Data folder. - Delete Voice\Jo-Virr-NS.esp from your Oblivion\Data\Sound\Voice folder. Bugs: - Sometimes Jo'Virr won't equip his bow, but will instead rush into melee combat. FIX: Opening and closing his inventory seems to fix that. - Sometimes the follow feature stops working after fast-traveling. FIX: Ask him to stop following you, then ask him to follow you again, and he'll go back to following. - You can report other bugs (I'm sure there are plenty of them.) in the discussion thread, or PM me on the forums. Use: - Anyone who wants is free to use, edit, and re-use the scripts in this mod for their own mods. I make no guarantee as to how well they'll work! - Please do not use any of the dialogue in this mod without asking me first.

Have fun. And pat Scamper on the head for me!

...and thank you again for your help. I really do appreciate it!

These are magic chocolates! They're, uh, actually good for you! No, really!

Sugar High!: Once a year, something strange happens in Cyrodiil that does NOT involve death, mayhem, and daedric invasions! In homes, shops, and public buildings, chocolate candies appear out of nowhere, just begging someone to collect them all. (released 1-30-11) Bear Hunt: Dozens of toy bears have been left lying around in dungeons all over Cyrodiil. All of them are cute! Some of them are valuable! And a few of them will set you on fire. Many thanks to TESA folks GreenWarden and EruditeDragon for their assistance, as always, both in beta-testing and with technical assistance!

Hurrah for comfortable little houses!
