That's a good idea, but that'd require editing a lot of NPCs to be "addicts" and Thadon ends upHere's an idea for a Mania lesser spell.
The Duke of mania is addicted to a drug so you could use those drug as a "companion trap". You know, if you have some of the drug on you (maybe with the mod, create an easy way to get some), you could cast a spell with a name similar to "Addict" and then the person is addict to the drug and will follow you everywhere and fight for you. If you want to keep him as a companion, you need to give him a regular dose of drug and if you don't, he would just collapse and when he wake, he no longer follow you.
Just an idea
BTW, nice to see you have your own section too
Good idea though, and thanks
