Summary:
This is a dark themed story driven quest mod for Skyrim. Like a real story, it is split into chapters which will be added one by one as the development moves on.
Warnings (read this before downloading):
Content Warning:
The story of this mod features dark adult themes like slavery, reluctance, blackmail, non-consentual sex, humilation and so on. Its not over the top (at least not yet) stuff, but if this direction is not your cup of tea, don't bother to download it.
Full Story Code Warnings:
Length Warning:
Every minute you play takes several hours to create in a story driven mod. Don't expect this to be another Dawnguard. Right now the very first chapter is finished. Its more like a preview (which also means - don't expect any orgies just yet)
Bug Warning:
There are probably quite a few bugs in the mod, which I hope to find and fix of course. However many bugs are just caused by Skyrim/The Creation Kit itself. When I tested the mod, sometimes some action in a scene just failed for no reason at all and it got stuck. Most times I could compelte the mod without any problems tho - however if you get stuck in a scene or dialog, just reloading and doing it again fixes it most of the times.
FAQ:
Will this mod be continued?
Possibly.
Requirements:
You need to have these mods installed:
- FNIS 4.0 or higher and the FNIS Creature Pack
- Nudes - FavoredSoulMeshes - ErectVersion
- A female nude body mod of your choice
- You need to TURN ON SUBTITLES in your settings
- You need to have a FEMALE PLAYER CHARACTER
Incompabilities:
Custom Skeletons are very likely not going to work / fit with the mods animation. For the XP32 Maximum Skeleton there is a compatibilty mode: Select the Dark Investigation Settings Spell in your Magic Menu and turn on this mode if you are using this skeleton. The vanilla will provide better results however.
- While I tried to avoid messing up any vanilla quests, due to bugs and pathing issues I can't promise that I succeeded in it. Therefore I do recommend to only keep this mod loaded while you play it - it won't do anything after you have the quest done anyway. No edits on your character or anything are done.
Conflicting / Incompatible mods:
- "See you Sleep" Mod
- Ultimate Follower Overhaul
Installation:
1. Download and install all required mods listed above
2. Download this mod and unzip it into your data directory
3. Run the GenerateFNISforUsers.exe which was provided with FNIS and is in your /data/tools directory
4. Play
Quest:
- The quest is started by the courier. Just go into any city after the mod is loaded.

I'm looking for volunteers to make this mod fully voiced. Please check out this post if you want to help.
Graphic Artists
You know your way arround creating or editing items / textures / effects in Skyrim and want to help out? There is always some item or outfit I need for this mod, so if you want to help me out go ahead and PM me. All I can offer is the timeless fame if a place in mod credits however
Animation Artists
I have to use existing animations for the sex scenes in the mod. While many of them are very well done, most are not perfect for the actual scenes I have in mind. For example, some are "one-piece" animations which don't allow me to set the proper timing, others don't quite fit the action (like looking to consentual when it is not in the scene) and several do not exist at all (groping, undressing, etc). On the off chance that someone with skill in this area comes along and wants to provide an animation tailored for this story, please contact me.

Thank you for the update but more thanks for keeping on working on this. You've got a great story going with a lot of creative ideas (the Lexicon as a recorder is just genius) which makes me eager (impatient really) to see what else you have in store.
ReplyDeleteI really like the way this goes. Thank you very much for the most awesome mod ever.
ReplyDeleteWoW man!
ReplyDeleteI don't really mind how long you take to finish this because I know its gonna be hella worth it!
Keep up the good work!
Looks amazing! Hope there's more of a 'forced/bondage' approach in the next chapter for the Dragonborn ;). I'm semi-okay at 3ds so I'll have a go at making the prisoner pants but I always hit a wall when it comes to getting them to display correctly in game once exported from 3ds (skinning most likely being the issue). Fingures crossed.
ReplyDeleteDat right arm broke at the end.But I can't wait for the next update.It's gonna be huge progress.Keep up the great work.
ReplyDeleteDude, you are very talented keep up the good work. I wish you luck.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update, and again, great job, keep it up!
ReplyDeleteExcellent. we can't wait.keep up the good work.
ReplyDeletelooks great. can't wait to see my PC go through that scene =)
ReplyDeleteWe all know that a such awesome mod takes ages to be created, so take your time, again!
ReplyDeleteI player 3 times Chap 0 & 1, it's still a pleasure to play it again, your text, the quest, everything is excellent, and even better than the classic quest.
Like everybody here, I can't wait to see the Dragonborn in a slave peril!
First of all, congratulations, played your mod like 3-4 times already, great work!
ReplyDeleteI have a question about this 'other branch', however: on Tursam branch, we had a "good" choice (Putting yourself on danger to get the info) and a "bad" choice (using another person to reach the goal). Do you plan on giving us multiple ways also on Shydra branch?
Again, thanks for one of the best adult mods ever (and certainly THE best adult-quest mod)!
Just like Tursam's, Shydra's branch will have two subbranches - although they might not be released at the same time.
DeleteIn general, whenever there is an "evil" choice there will be an alternative branch which is not evil. It will not always be considered noble or heroic, but something a good-natured heroine could do without acting out of her role.
Looks good! I especially like the little nudge at the end there.
ReplyDeleteWill every sex scene that happens in this mod be available in the theatre? That would be a really cool feature
ReplyDeleteWoah, really impressive!
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your work, that's really one of the most impressive quest mod aviable ;)
ReplyDeleteDo you think you'll use the newest sexlab framework in the future? It has enough animations to replace both sexis and asx (wich are obsolete now).
I try to avoid adding dependencies to other mods as much as possible, because it makes installing Dark Investigation more complicated for users. I also do not need any framework (script wise) for my mod - all current required mods (Sexis, ASX) are "only" there because of the animation files which I cannot just copy over without permission.
DeleteLoverslab would also require SkyUI and SKSE as additional requirements, which are not needed for Dark Investigations.
So the answer is: I would prefer not to use Sexlab and plan to remove the dependency at least for ASX when I find some time to create a replacement animation. Because several animators allow using their work in other mods (like Arrok) and some scenes in DI continue to have self-made animations I hope that in the end I will not have to rely on any framework mod.
Thanks for taking time to answer and good to know you'll remove the dependancy to asx (I've asked this because this mod is the only reason to install those mods now, and most people have installed sexlab anyway). I think the animation with danica is from blac945, maybe you can ask him if you can use it directly ;)
DeleteFirstly thanks for GREAT mod. I can not wait next update, and check your blog every day :)I have one question, are you planning to support Schlongs of Skirim?
ReplyDeleteI too would like to know that, hopefully its easy to implement his animations with SOS. Also an animated vagina is a WIP atm and it shouldn't be long till its out, having that too would make a dream reality!
DeleteHope everything is going well. Looking forward to the next update =).
ReplyDeletei can´t wait for the next update, every day i visit this page for new material or somes spoilers jajaja like a trailler of a movie
ReplyDeleteEasily the best adult mod I've ever downloaded for Skyrim. Can't wait to see what's next! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is prob the best quest mod i have played for skyrim!
ReplyDeleteI admit, it's a great mod! Every two days I look for news here :D And that since 3 months..or 4 months? Hm :)
ReplyDeleteThoroughly enjoyed this so far. Brilliant mod :) Any progress update incoming? Hope you are still working on it :)
ReplyDeleteplease continue this mod it was a mod that should be finished :)
ReplyDeleteI think mod is dead. It has been over a month since the last update and there's nothing :( . Shame though it was such a good mod.
ReplyDeleteYou think wrong and if you would have read some of the posts in this blog you would have noticed that this is not a fast updating mod. It might even take some more months for the next release - that's how it is. This is not a fulltime job for me and adding content takes time.
