Looking for wandering adventurer mod(SSE 1.5.97)

There's a mod I really like called adventurer pkg for npc sse and I was wondering, does anyone know of any other mods like it? More like something like adventurers and travelers but they actually go around clearing dungeons like the adventurer pkg for npc sse mod? I know about vilja, that's not what I'm looking for. I'm just now trying dragonstone but it seems like a simple spawner tool to add more npcs rather than have them actually go out and clear dungeons. I'm currently using FGOAT from lovers lab, that's working well but it's not quite there. I was wondering if anyone knew of a mod where there's some npc warbands or extra dovakhiin(yes I know it's unimmersive but I don't mind) going around clearing dungeons and basically playing the game proper as well and you could just follow along and help them out? To help kind of get rid of that main character energy.

So I understand there's various ways magic has been portrayed to draw its power from, usually an external source of some sort or some sort of internal mana pool.

But I was thinking of something a bit more biological? What if magic fed directly off of peoples' bodies, and converted raw calories into energy, and the more volatile the element the more calories it used?

So at the start there's a basic flame spell, and it's the middle ground of combusting fat and oil into heat and fire.

And for something like ice spells, it uses less, and then for lightning spells, it uses more because of the amount of energy in something like a lightning bolt?

I'm a solo first time dev so it's not something I'd probably implement in a first game, but lore wise, how could that all fit together? Like, the larger and more obese you are with the knowledge of how to perform magic the more spells you could theoretically cast?(Though I would probably structure it in game as the bigger the model, the more mana)

Hey everyone. This isn't self promotion I think, I don't plan on using this account to involve with it anyway, and I don't have anything made up as well, but I was wanting to check an idea.

So I'm disabled, impoverished, etc etc, typical sad pathetic no lifer stuff, and I decided I want to make a video game since I have a few years to myself anyway.

I really got into TES Call to Arms, and I know it's not like a lot of other TTRPG's from what I've seen, but what do y'all think the viability of like a sandbox ttrpg game sim thingy would be?

So I'm asking this because, as per my previous reasons, I can't afford nothing but blender and a dabble at Unreal Engine(Godot is too advanced for me), but if I modeled some map parts, set it on a dungeon master sort of walled table like them expensive ones, set some game rules, added cards, loot pools, etc, basically like a little wargame dungeon delver, in however many years it takes for me to make one, not really super animated, just like a proper sim with maybe some animation if it takes off or gets funding or something, is that something that y'all would be into? So basically the idea is it's a screen you cast or put on a big tv and you can set up a little tabletop environment, set the environments and board, throw up so models and have a little session with your friends.

I'm mostly asking as someone who doesn't really have a lot of options to get into ttrpg's due to the financial walls, especially for the miniatures. So I was thinking I could research what makes a fun one fun, try to make a little simulation one for mobile and PC, and maybe charge a few bucks for it. That way if someone wants to get into that sort of area then they wouldn't have to worry about a financial wall to get some of that itch scratched, and later on could invest in some miniatures if they decide they want to do that. I was already going to do it as a personal project anyway, but is that something y'all think the Tabletop community would be into?

(Also I'm sorry if this isn't the proper place to ask, I know wargames and ttrpg's are different things but I think they're similar enough to ask here. If not I can take it to the wargames subreddit if that's what the TES Call to Arms Modephius thing is more akin to.)
