Building Project 01: The Parodies Easter Egg Options

[Troika]

Sinder Velvin has given us permission to use his hugely popular parodies in the mod. Due to the fact that they do fly in the face of just about everything that is TES, they can only be included as an easter egg. That means no mention of them in the 'real' parts of the library, and an especially difficult way of reaching them. We need to cover as many points as possible, and when we have majority agreement on something, we'll consider it pinned down, and once everything's as sorted as much as it can be, we can move onto the next project.

So, try to focus on one point at a time, and debate in a friendly manner people!

[quote=TravelingWater] Once you overhear someone in a tavern talking about a hidden library full of hidden and powerful books/histories, you can ask to the owner of any given bookstore about a secret library. They'll tell you that they've never heard of such foolishness and so on, but there is someone who can tell you for sure that there is no such thing. The master librarian at the library in the Capitol of the province. So you travel there, curious and whatnot, meet up with the old man. He immeadiatly tells you there is no such thing. And he would know. He mentions a rumor about someone saying they had been given a forman's journal -a journal of the man who built a secret chamber beneith the keep of an escentric landholder- by the forman's wife, but that no sense had been made of it. It had to have been a ruse, because there were no records of such a building project in the imperial files, nor in any other book.
You, of course, ask who the forman's journal was given to. The old man sends you on a wild goose chase. You come back, unsucessful, and he promptly sends you on another one. You see, he is testing you. HE is the old man who was given the journal of the forman over 50 years ago, and has kept is secret from absolutly everyone once he found out what lengths the empire would go to in protecting the histories they had written themselves. Histories that had been doctored to paint them in a better light than was actually true.
But old age is creeping up on the master librarian, and curiosity is begining to take the place of caution and the fear of loosing his life. So, he takes you in as an apprentice, teaching you how to find and read through the histories for clues. You both look together, advancing toward the final goal of finding the location of the Keep where the secret library is hidden. (like becoming a guild leader in MW, it should be a long process with a load of steps) So you finally find the keep. Now you have to scout it out, taking the journal with you, using it to get past the traps and locks that the crazy keeper had the forman install. You finally find the library, all its glories are open to you. But now you must go back, and bring the Master Librarian to the hidden trove, because he simply must see it for himself. Once you do that, he gives you the keys to the Library and Histories of the Capitol, and names you assistant Master Librarian.[/quote]

I thought this as a awesome idea. I would do something like that. Would be added quests for more game time.
