When you say use a quest to store the closest actor to the player, what exactly are you referring to? Thank you for all of your help and feedback, it has been tremendously useful!

Alright, well I need that to point to my follower, so how would I do that without using an alias?

I fiddled with it, and now I'm getting this as my error:

1. I didn't create a variable. I've never done it before and I thought by creating a Quest alias(FollowerAlias) and then creating a property that referenced that alias (NPC1). Are you saying that I need to define a variable in my papyrus fragment? If so, what would that look like (I want it to point to my current follower)? Thank you for all of your help and for responding. 2. Yes, this is a fragment and not a script that I attached. What I have in the End: Papyrus Fragment is BuffSpell.Cast(akspeaker,NPC1) To the right of that, I clicked on Properties (of the Script Name field) and added the properties for BuffSpell and NPC1. It looks like I need to declare a variable in my Papyrus fragment on top of this? Once again, thank you so much for your help!

Hi I am trying to create a scenario where you talk to an NPC and he will cast a buff spell on you or a follower through dialogue. I set up the Quest, and I've got it to work for him casting the spell on the PC. In my Topic Info I have this in my Papyrus End script: BuffSpell.Cast(game.getplayer()) with BuffSpell property defined. This works great, but I run into a problem getting the NPC to cast it on my follower: Now I want the NPC to cast the buff on my current follower, so I put this in the Papyrus End Script: BuffSpell.Cast(akspeaker,NPC1) I created a Quest Alias named FollowerAlias that has Find Matching Reference: In Loaded Area, Closest both checked. Conditions are GetInFaction Faction:PotentialFollowerFaction == 1.00 I created a property called NPC1 that is Alias type, and points to FollowerAlias. When I try to compile the script, it fails telling me that that variable NPC1 is undefined. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance to anyone who wants to help me. I have been struggling with this for a week, and seeing all of the great people on this forum inspired me to create an account and reach out for help.
