Back Pain and Nightmares - It's The Little Things In Life...

...that offer some extra immersion. It might bring your character some happiness too (there is a good dream effect as well), but mostly that's not the point, as usual.


Let's start from the beginning. Hello, my name is Leo and I missed Creation Kit. Sigh.

One day I woke up with my back aching a little (probably just posture consequences). So I thought of this old little mod by tranwiz, that still haunts the internets every now and again. And I wanted to make something similar. Except it's every bed.


I have had an array of other small torments I'd like to inflict on the player too, but only some of them worked out so far. I had experience with OnSleep effects at that point (because of Sleep and Journal to Save), so I made this tiny mod with three random rare effects.


You can wake up with a debuff/buff from a nightmare/good dream. Can wake up with your back aching. Or you can pass out for a bit more time, thus oversleeping.


As with other of my Skyrim mods, it's available for download on Nexus. I haven't mentioned here yet some other small releases, such as Almost No Racial Difference and Dear Diary - Remove numbers for immersion. Those are surely oddballs, but they fit a certain harsh and strange world I'm imagining, supporting Guided By Stars, Bless You, Seasonal Foods, and Garbage Loot—all together covering racial abilities, Standing Stones effects, blessings, food, and UI.
