Smurfs in Skyrim, - keeing them separate Options

[ghastley]

Rather than discuss the possible Smurf mod elsewhere, this thread will keep it separate. It probably won't ever get that far, anyway.

The house is just a Dragonborn one from Tel Mithryn, with a chimney added, and a few furniture swaps to Orc style. There are modders resources for Telvanni-style building, some of which could provide intermediate growth stages. My current thoughts are: small ball develops into tall-stemmed mushroom until roof is full-diameter, and then stem (and roof) thicken/bulge. I need to create an "uncut" version with no ropes, and no door, from the current mesh, which looks possible. An external chimney needs adding to the "after" version, too.

I need a quest build-up that makes Skyrim sense. Dragonborn is a requirement for the house mesh, so bringing back the spore from Elynea Mothren, the mycologist at Tel Mithryn, fits in. I could add it as an extra reward for the quest to repair the tower (taproot fetch quest), and tie in the need for some taproots as an ingredient in the construction. There's a spriggan just next door at Roadside Ruins. Spriggan Sap might also figure in.

The hard part is what to use as construction "bench". I used the tree-stump outside the Bosmer Den, and could do something similar here, especially with the Spriggan connection. There was a felled trunk where the house now is, and I moved it a bit out of the way, but I could replace with a stump instead. I might even use the enclosed shrine idea again.

I've been creating Smurf characters (and a Gargamel mage) to see what works, as a few NPC's might be called for. Azrael as a Sabre-cat? So far Hefty Smurf (hand-to-hand) and Hunter Smurf (archer), and Papa Smurf as a pure mage are viable. I can't see any others working, without weapons.

Smurfette has also been joined by Sassette, in pink dungarees. She's not a child, and those clothes are a bit small for her.
