You know what? Screw it.

This hearthfire overhaul hasn't felt quite right since I first announced it, mostly due to the NPC restrictions. If I stick to only HF (and HF related) NPCs, it will be a very small overhaul compared to the rest in my PAN NPCs series. However, by including other NPCs like bards and potential stewards, it doesn't quite remain a HF overhaul anymore. 

Today I realised what I wanted to do about it and I feel a lot better about the project now that it makes more sense in my head.
There won't be a hearthfire overhaul. Instead, I'm turning this into PAN NPCs - Males 3. All HF female NPCs have already been covered by Kalilies NPCs and the Bijin series so the mod would have been all males anyway. This mod will still include all male HF related characters, which is about 20-25 NPCs - the rest will be male NPCs of your choosing. 

Because the project has morphed into something else, I am resetting all your votes so please submit your requests again even if you did so last time.
Below are some information and guidelines, please take your time to read it all to improve the chances of your requests being accepted.

Which NPCs can I suggest? The next overhaul will be focused mostly on NPCs from the Hearthfire DLC, with a few exceptions:

• No elders, khajiit or argonians - I will cover them separately
• No unnamed NPCs (like bandits, soldiers, etc)
• No corpses
• No NPCs from mods or the other DLCs
• No female NPCs or males from my previous overhauls

ALL carriage drivers, ferrymen and male housecarls will be included in this mod. NPCs that "fit the theme" such as base game bards and potential stewards have higher priority than other NPCs but aside from that you are welcome to suggest whichever NPCs you want! 

Where can I submit my requests? You are welcome to send me your NPC suggestions through one of the following:

• Patreon PM
• Discord (either in the discord group patron channel or directly to me at Cat#3080)
• In a comment on this post

Who can suggest NPCs? Requests are exclusive to patrons, you guys are a big reason why I keep modding so I want you to pick the characters that will go into this mod. However, to keep it more manageable for me now that there are so many of you, I'll need to set a max limit based on your patreon tier:

• Bronze - 2 NPCs
• Silver - 4 NPCs
• Gold - 7 NPCs
• Diamond - 10 NPCs

This limit will be in place in the beginning to make sure I don't get overwhelmed, you will be able to suggest more later! As usual, feel free to suggest NPCs others already mentioned if you want to - the more requests an NPC gets, the higher it will be prioritized. 

Where can I see the NPC list? I made a google document where I will add all suggested NPCs. This list is always up to date and you will be able to see which NPCs have been suggested and which ones are confirmed.
