Follower Dialogue Expansion: Faralda 2.0

2.0 adds a personal questline to Faralda revolving around her family and their struggle with the Thalmor. 174 new lines for her personal quest as well as her past in Alinor.

Update:

2025/7/28 - Fixed packaging issue that included some scripts from Faendal. Fixed a line that used a modern unimmersive word. Fixed two cold weather reaction lines to trigger only in exterior.

2025/9/28 - Fixed a looping dialogue issue in the quest The Staff of Magnus.

2025/10/13 - Fixed a looping dialogue issue if you didn't complete Faralda's research notes quest.

This mod is part of my series to renovate vanilla characters with additional depth and interaction, similar to the other Dialogue Expansion mods.

Features:

1. Makes Faralda a full-fledged follower and expands her with 441 immersive, lore-friendly lines, all voiced by high quality AI (see the video for reference)

2. Quest awareness for the College of Winterhold questline, vanilla main quest, DLC main quest
(Refer to this list for details)

3. Many new story-driven interactions

4. Personal quests

5. Location-awareness, including cities and dungeons

6. Completely lore-friendly, expanding rather than completely rewriting the character

7. Immerse into your game world as a character who lives in it rather than taking over the show

This mod is 100% compatible with any mod, including dialogue expansion mods from other authors.

Safe to add or update mid-save.

There is a potential for future expansion with Faralda, including optional synergy with the overarching Shezarrine Saga

To trigger the second part of the quest, 5 days must have passed for a Bosmer to appear to inform Faralda about her family.

There is a patch which increases this length to 10 days and also require the completion of the main quest, as intended by the commissioner for pacing reasons.
