Meta Game Items

A few useful items that will help you make your game experience your own.

Throw away any items you don't want, to get them back you just need to save your game without the mod active, then reactivate it.


-- Item Descriptions ---

Love Potion No.9 - Romanceable followers only
With the Love Potion it is not only possible but very easy to romance multiple companions. --Now sets romance active no matter the circumstances. Check out my other mod, "Polygamey", for another method of achieving multiple romances.

The Hate Stick - Romanceable followers only
Ends romance with follower.

Machiavellian Tome - Romanceable followers only
Sets or unsets Hardened flag.

Ring of Rebirth - All followers except Shale and Dog
Unspends all skill, talent, attribute, and specialization points (full respec). If you respec a follower who has a specialization you have not yet unlocked on your profile you will not be able to reselect it until you do.

The Genderring - Player Only
Change sex temporarily to pass gender checks in dialog. Meaning you can fool Morrigan and romance her with a female character. Or, Alistair with a male if that's your flavor. You can also marry a certain queen with a female character. --Changing sex also changes body appearance so it looks goofy - to hide this the item will transform you into a Skeleton or a Dryad based on the new gender (see screenshots).

Polymorphous Perversifier - Player only
This item simply performs or undoes the transformation to Skeleton or Dryad done by The Genderring without actually changing your gender.

The Typecaster - All followers except Shale and Dog
Change your dwarf to a mage, or change a crappy warrior into a deadly rogue. --Change your core class (Warrior > Rogue > Mage > etc).

Transmogrification Potion - Player only
Changes the player's origin (cycles through them). This will allow you to marry a certain queen even if you did not begin as a Human Noble. --Using this item may cause dialogs that reference your origin to end abruptly or behave strangely.

Alternate Lothering Portal
Teleports you back to Lothering. Allows you to return for Leliana or Sten or whatever you missed. I advise using it only from camp and not until after you have left Lothering for the first time.

Sycophant Summoner
Change party members anywhere.
