Child Mod

Description
There are now children in the world of Kenshi.

There are new starts as well. Play as a child of any race, and see how you fare.

(The "Parent Looking for their Child" start has their actual child living somewhere in the world. If you see characters that usually aren't there, they are story characters. Best not talk to them unless you're looking for the story character.)

WORKS WELL WITH:
Crus' Patch Children Animation
- https://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3367457859

Pattariick's jrpg faces patch for this mod:
- https://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2039999907

My "Beg for Food" mod:

Children have stat penalties, but some stats are boosted. Their health is lower and they are smaller in size. They are also treated differently sometimes.

Children will not grow up, but here is what you can do:
- Go to
...\SteamLibrary\steamapps\workshop\content\233860
- Copy the folder named "1688594162"
- Paste the folder into
...\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Kenshi\mods
- Rename the copy of "1688594162" as "Children"
- Open the Kenshi editor
- Select the mod "Children"
- Select "Towns" from the list in the left
- Double click any town that you can visit
- Make sure the tab next to "Add" says "Bar squads"
- Press "Add" on the top right
- Select "SQUADADULT"
- Double click SQUADADULT
- Double click ADULT
- Edit the character to fit the child character
(-100 health on a limb means that that limb is missing)
- Save the mod. Start the game. Go to the town you placed the squad in. Find the adult version of your character. Talk to them and recruit them. "Dispose" of the child version of the character.

UPDATES:

June 2023:
- New faces for children
- Removed muscles from children
- Removed most dependencies to make this compatible with most other mods.

May 2024:
- Added a dud adult for easy editing to transform a child character into an adult
- Added info on where to find this mod and where to put it to edit it.

April 25:
- Had a request. If it breaks something, let me know and I'll roll back

Please report any issues you are facing with this mod. Make sure the issue is not created through mod incompatibilities.

I started a new game and this time she was there (minus one arm)

That's the one. I've never not found her. Maybe import the save.

This is the shack with 3 levels that sits right between a large rusting iron resource and an oblong lake right? 2 cages on the bottom floor and 3 at the top?

She should be fine for as long as it takes, so not sure what's up. You found the right place.

Question: Can Aiko die before you find her? I've combed through every inch of the swamplands south east of Shark (and gone further beyond that just to be safe) where I was told to go by the retired slaver but found no trace of her.
I did find a hut not marked on the map that had some hard high-level hostiles in it which sounds like the place given what people have said in the comments, but she isn't there. All the cages were empty and there was signs of cannibalism amongst the hostiles.
I also ask because the NPC in North Port was dead when I showed up in town for the first time
Lawh  [author] 23 Nov @ 5:12am 
Should not be, but the thought is nice.

Important question. Are there tiny skeleton babies for whatever reason?

Jim's house don't appear on the map, can you make that you can see it?

child slavery yeah babyyyy

Yeah I mean unfortunately some cheesing will be required. Funnily enough you can just run in with the mercs and have them distract while you pick the lock on your daughters cage then slip out. You leave the mercs to die basically which I don't really wanna do but you either cheese it like that or cheese grind up 10 people and brute force it. Just a shame that no matter what the start requires some form of cheese.
