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

Pattariick's jrpg faces patch for this mod:

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.

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

I roleplayed as a captured native of Bast, so I went back home and started looking in the nearby slave camps and shops until I found a lead. I think there's also a random bar spawn character who gives a clue if you find him.

@BreakUrSelf any clue on how to find Aiko? I immediately escaped Rebirth and not sure what clues to follow, so I could use a lot of help from someone who managed to continue on the questline!

@Lawh thank you so much, i hope my patch helps other players, thanks again for your work doing the children mod :)

@krizzygirl206 I always start doing the same thing. I sometimes try to do a solo run but it never ends being that way.

@Crus I added your mod to the description. It's really nice work. It separates the children from the adults even more now.

Hi, my friend! First of all, I want to thank you for your work. I’ve made an animation patch for the people who use your mod, and I’m sharing the link here in case anyone wants to try it out. Best regards, and I hope everyone enjoys their adventures in Kenshi as much as I do!

I only just started playing with this mod, and immediately I was adopting children left and right. I felt so bad. I am so broke but I also have a small army of children.

The head size was increased, and since I don't know much about texture design someone else will have to make the changes. There is the JRPG patch for this mod that might help.

I get a sense that the children still look too much like simply shrunken adults by bodily proportions, so I would suggest bigger heads (and maybe eyes?) would add a child-like feel to them that is currently missing.

@The Best We Have
It was cleanup duty from some old data. But have another one, for all you big brains out there, as per @Sex Defender's suggestion. That's a great name btw.
