Soth (Recruitable NPC)

Description
This is more of a proof-of-concept. A recruitable NPC located in one of the residential districts in Llanford. It's very bare boned. He's missing gear and cannot help out at the camp (as in, he cannot hunt, etc.) and there isn't any documentation showing how to implement that in Ink, yet.

That rules dude thanks, I'll implement that next time I get the chance. I'll be sure to download your mod to get inspiration on how to do something!

Oh and you can make Soth capable of being assigned to different tasks with the following example:
----
EXTERNAL AssignDuty(Name, Duty)

+[Cooking]
You assign Soth to Cooking
# AssignDuty("Soth", "Cooking")
->END
----
If you have any questions, the developer is quick to respond in Discord, and you can review the code snippets published by the mods to take a peek at the code. I have a companion, "Ludwig," inside the "Blood In Taymoor" mod that might have some Inkle script that can be examined for other companion mods.

Hey-o! Nice to see another mod in this small game. I like the look and idea behind the companion, and if you are looking to explore further, I can make some suggestions. For starters, Soth currently can't equip his novice wand as he has no points in Magical weapons. No biggie, as he does start with a skill point to spend when he is recruited, but if you want him to be capable of using the wand immediately. You can do this by adding one point to the skill with the following line, " Magical:1 ", inside the Initialize part of the actor editor. Also, Soth will be locked into a player's party when recruited. This is because of the following line: # Recruit("Soth") | which, as odd as it may sound, isn't the line you probably want to use in this instance. I recommend: # Ally("Soth") | as it recruits Soth to the party, but instead of locking him in the party slot: # Ally ("Sloth") | will enable swapping him in and out of the player's team & reserves.
