Immaculate Covenant

Immaculate Covenant

A fifth faction for Outward Definitive Edition. Instead of the Blue Chamber, the Holy Mission, the Heroic Kingdom or Sorobor, side with the Friendly Immaculate, the one who reads in caves and wishes to be free of the Scourge's leash.

Work in progress. The questline currently stops after the second faction quest; Levant and the finale are still to come. Swearing the oath counts as choosing your faction, so a character who joins cannot follow a vanilla faction's story. Try it on a character you are happy to keep waiting.

Solo only. In co-op or split screen, the Covenant's quests and characters stay away.

How to join

Finish Call to Adventure without choosing a faction, and find the Friendly Immaculate in one of his camps while he has not left for good. Ask who he is, then what he is doing there.

What is in this version

• Recruitment: one proof out of three, then an oath. His vanilla gifts stop once you have sworn, and he stays available in every camp.
• Two Hearts (Chersonese): he walks at your side as a companion and talks with you about what humans call the vitals. Permanent small bonuses to Health, Stamina and Mana.
• Another Leash (Hallowed Marsh): humans with nets are after his blood. It ties into the vanilla quest Purifier, and teaches one of two new skills.
• Rallying: convince other Immaculates to join, with the right words. Some must first be quieted with a new rune, and the Butcher of Men has a trial of his own.
• Camps: rallied Immaculates live in the camps, ask small errands, can keep a stall, and the Butcher will spar with you.

Compatibility

Requires SideLoader. New content uses reserved negative IDs. Removing the mod from a character who already joined leaves that character with a faction chosen and no faction quests.
