Conina the Hairdresser, becoming a mod Options

[ghastley]

I already built Conina as a follower, but didn't place her in the game world.

I'm considering putting her in the Sleeping Giant in Riverwood, so potential Nijels can find her early in the game.

My Nijel has just started Lakevoew Manor, and she saw the small house and thought it would be perfect as a hairdressing salon, especially as the main house behind it can have an alternative entrance from any balcony. So I'm thinking for Lakeview only, take away the Entryway option, and replace with Salon.

So what equipment would a Tamriel hairdressing salon contain? Chair for the customer with plenty of space around it Large bowl and jug for washing, but what else? Large mirrors seem to be unknown. Small ones would be rare, too, and the game engine doesn't offer a reflective surface for one.

I'm not sure if the scripting will work yet, but I leapt into the CK and did a layout, subject to change.

Here's a screen shot from the CK preview window, so you can see the outside of the front wall. There's very little clutter at present, as much of it will probably be custom, such as brushes, combs, scissors, shampoo and conditioner etc. The workbench for furnishing it will go when completed, but I have it there so I don't place anything to conflict.

The idea is that the Lakeview house will lose the "Entryway" option, and get "Salon" instead. That way you can build the small house and use it as before, but clear and re-decorate when you have the larger part done. It would make sense to have the home part entered via a second entrance, but the balcony options (bedroom, storeroom, armory) provide that already. I did think of requiring one of those, but it's an extra complication that's not needed.

And I need towels. I'm sure one of the bathing mods has those - need to go hunting.
