NPC bodies (a Raise Dead/Resurrection mod)

$

This mod is intended for those playing a minimal/no reloads game (therefor using Raise Dead services of temples instead of reloading when a NPC dies) and has three components that can be installed independently.

1) NPC bodies for BG:EE

When a NPC dies, he (or she) drops a body at the feet of the Protagonist (ideally it should have been dropped together with the inventory items at the spot the NPC was killed, but so far it does not seem possible) in the place he is killed. In order to be raised at a temple, the NPC's body must be carried in the party inventory and upon casting the spell, the body will disappear from inventory and the NPC will be brought back to life.

Do not attempt to raise dead a NPC without his body, this will result in his permanent death ! Also leaving an area without the body will cause the body to disappear after a time, resulting in the impossibility to bring the character back to life.

Each of the 28 joinable NPC's has his unique body with a weight based on race, gender and strength.







2) Raise Dead permanent Constitution loss

This cause the characters brought back to life with Raise Dead or Resurrection to lose 1 point of CON as in PnP


3) Fixed price for Raise Dead spell

It makes little sense for the dynamic progression with level of the Raise Dead cost in temples. At lowest levels Raise Dead cost less than Slow Poison, or Cure Critical Wounds or Heal, while at the higher levels it becomes absurd, when the player usually has the means to cast the spell himself or by someone in the party and doesn't need this service anyway. So the price of Raise Dead has been set at the fixed price of 500gp


Warning, this is mod is not fully tested, and it is marked as BETA
