Now Announcing The Kaidan Workshop!
What is The Kaidan Workshop?
The Workshop is a community-led project that aims to preserve and build upon the Original LivTempleton Kaidan and Kaidan 2 mods.
Who is working on Kaidan Workshop? Our staff is entirely made up of volunteers from the Skyrim community, and we welcome all levels of participation; from those who simply have a suggestion, to those who have technical and/or artistic expertise.
What will be included in Kaidan Workshop? Kaidan Workshop's content can be easily broken down into three categories; revoice, custom follower interactions, and new content:
Revoice is geared towards re-recording the entire original script from the Kaidan 2 mod, in an effort to integrate missing dialogue from the original Kaidan mod; these will be re-recorded by a new VA and added into the base mod as a new voice type for the character.
Custom Follower Interaction is fairly self-explanatory; this aspect of the Kaidan Project is all about working with other custom follower creators in the Skyrim community to write and produce new interactions and dialogue between Kaidan and their characters. Once permissions have been granted, we will allow the general community to offer input to the writing staff. However, we respect the right of the original content creators to have the final say in the interpretation of their characters and the final script.
New Content revolves around expanding Kaidan’s backstory and his commentary regarding quests, as well as quality of life additions. This is the portion of the project that will see the most community input and engagement; we host periodic Workshop sessions (on our discord) that serve as a forum for members of the Workshop to brainstorm and discuss new ideas for new scripts and quests, as well as for the staff to ask for input on current projects. As these scripts are developed, Workshop Contributors will be able to view the full finalized scripts before they are sent off to our VA for recording; Workshop Spectators, however, will only be able to view a synopsis or small excerpt of the finalized script.
How can I join in? You can join Kaidan's Workshop by joining our discord server.
Who will be the new voice of Kaidan?
Currently, we are in the midst of a casting call for our new VA. While Paul Warren (VA of Kaidan in the Caryalind patch) is still being considered, we wanted to afford an opportunity for more community members to suggest other accents and voice types. Our casting call ends March 14th, 2023, 11:59 PM CST.
