Unique Companions #1: Xavage

Description
========================================================================================
It was a good run but all my mods for kenshi are henceforth discontinued. Due to me pursuing youtube as a hobby I am no longer maintaining my kenshi mods. As of this moment anyone is free to use, modify, and reupload any of my kenshi mods to steam or nexusmods under the condition I am credited as the original creator. If you for some reason need to contact me directly, I can be located at the Genesis modding discord. Cheers.

Excellent! Now that you are hooked on the thumbnail, time for the pitch.
This is (Hopefully) the first in a series of mods I plan to make that aims to add new and interesting companions to the game. Besides beep there is not a hell of a lot of truly ‘Unique’ characters in the game. With that in mind I am pleased to present Xavage, a completely unique character that uses a custom race, custom armor, a completely custom crossbow, over 500 lines of dialogue, And last but not least a gameplay ‘Quirk’ to help spice up the game. I hope you like it and enjoy using my mods.

Character Overview:
Self-declared explorer, naturalist, and tech hunter extraordinaire, Xavage is a strange individual to say the least. Having travelled the world twice over he has a lot to say about most things, that is when he can remember having been there at all. Due to his memory not being what it once was, he uses a journal as his primary means of recalling what happened on his previous journeys and will regal you with them as you travel. His primary interests are the in depth study and dissection of plants and animals in their natural habitat, which unfortunately includes humans...

Mod Overview:
Adds unique character Xavage to game world. Can be found and recruited in the Hub.
Adds a new Skelton race called “Xavage”. Used for dialogue purposes to prevent him from spouting off skeleton lines.
Xavage has a unique gameplay quirk used to unlock weapons and armor. (See below for more info)
Xavage can equip armour and limbs like any vanilla race.

Quirks:
Each time the player successfully finds and completes a conversation with Xavage he will accumulate research. He can use this accumulated research to trade with the Machinists over in World’s End University for technical schematics which can be used to research quirk weapons, and armour. Every now and again, go stop by and speak with finch to claim the research items.

Quirk weapons/armour:
Techdelver set: A set of leather armour that was once used by tech hunters of old but has since been supplanted by cheaper sets.
Old sally: Xavage’s custom crossbow that is a rough prototype of a rattan diagram he found in a ruin ages ago.
Leviathans’ Bane: An absolutely massive crossbow that puts any other crossbow to shame. Requires 4 levels of research to acquire and is a sizable investment.
Falling star: Unique falling sun with high bleeding potential. Very pointy.

Relationships:
He is primarily aligned with the tech hunters, and may engage in dialogue with passing tech hunters.
Has a passing relationship with the united cities, despite having a small bounty on his head.
Harbours a deep seated hatred against the holy nation and will happily join the player in dismantling them.
Is openly dismissive of the shek as nothing more than brutish animals that need to be studied.
Dislikes hivers due to their bug like physique.
Harbours great scientific interest in beak things and gorrilos.
Abhors encountering spiders and skinners.

I’d just like to thank everyone personally who helped me out recently by donating on my previous mods. I used the money to get myself a second 720p monitor to make my blender shenanigans easier, as well as buy some coffee that tastes better than gasoline. Without you I would not be able to continue making mods and I appreciate every single cent you can spare.

Hello from Japan! I am enjoying this mod very much!
I have uploaded a Japanese Translation of the mod to the Steam Workshop so that Japanese people can also have an adventure with Xavage.
Hope you like it.
I had a nice time dialog with him, especially in the Ashland biome's dialog, and I feel like I got a taste of his beautiful humanity.

WARNING! Carry on reading! Or you will die, even if you only looked at the word warning! Once there was a little boy called Joey, he was ten-years-old and he lived in a mental hospital because he posted a shitty copypasta onto a People Playground mod's comment section . He got so bad he went to kill all the staff in the hospital so the Feds decided that best idea was to get rid of him so they set up a special room to kill him, as inhumane as possible. And he sat there in agony for hours until he died. Now every week on the day of his death he returns to the person that reads this letter, on a monday night at 12:00 a.m. He creeps into your room and kills you slowly, by pegging you and watching you bleed to death. Now send this to ten other profiles on this one site, and he will haunt someone else who doesn't. This isn't fake. apparently if u copy and paste this to ten comments in the next ten minutes nothing will happen: sorry man i am not taking the risk
