Are we to believe that no attempts have been made on her life by her rivals or even her own underlings or associates? Maul is suppose to be her 'right hand' but she sends him to guard a warehouse outside of the city? Surely, someone as important as her would not dare to walk about Riften unescorted and behave so obnoxiously? With this mod, she has a personal bodyguard who follows her everywhere and intimidates anyone who is more annoyed than intimidated by her, except when she goes to Mistveil Keep for her daily chit-chat with the Jarl, where the bodyguard will wait outside like a good hound until she's done, for obvious reasons.Дid you ever think it was odd that Skyrim has more nobles than servants? History has taught us that all socio-political hierarchies are shaped like pyramids-there are always more servants than nobles, more nobles than Jarls, and more Jarls than High Kings. She may be well connected and have the Riften Guards in her pockets, but her death would create such a vacuum of power for the city that any ambitious individuals or organization could exploit the opportunity to advance themselves. Every time I talk to her, I just want to bash her head in. She walks around the city flaunting her stature and bullies everyone she sees. Maven is basically the 'Under-Jarl' of Riften. In any event, you probably shouldn't take them dragon hunting, or.maybe you should, because these hirelings' job is not to defeat your enemies, but to make -you- look good! They will, however, be perfectly useful if you need someone to 'look tough' and intimidate peasants (.although, actually, some of them may not even look particularly tough.), or want someone to spank the hide off of skeevers. They are not 'essential' or 'protected', so they can die (unless you are using a follower overhaul mod), they are not particularly tough, they are not particularly brave (but not overtly cowardly), nor do they particularly like you, so they won't be particularly loyal (and you'll have to pay them every time you want to re-hire them). These mercenaries are more like the.'left overs' after the pool of talent has been picked clean.

The base game provides some capable hirelings you can recruit, but it's inconceivable that mercenaries of such caliber would have trouble finding employment given the current state of the country, let alone squander their days away downing in watered-down drinks in second-rate taverns, until a disreputable ex-convict like the Dragonborn comes along to recruit them to go on suicidal ventures like 'dragon hunting.' 'Inconsequential NPCs' adds some additional 'swords-for-hire'-but they are not your 'typical' hirelings.

Sell-swords should flock to the country like bees to honey. So what you will find isn't going to be 'quality service', but more of a.'quick romp'. These 'ladies of the night' are not courtesans to the nobility-they are desperate 'street-walkers' who need to quickly move from one client to another in order to make enough gold to feed their skooma addiction or to pay off their pimp. Yes, you can partake of their.'flowers', but don't expect perfumed women adorned with expensive jewelries and exotic fashions, catering to your every whim for hours on end. If you look hard enough in the seediest section of the city after nightfall, you will find some impoverished souls selling.'flowers' to anyone who can meet their price. 'Inconsequential NPCs' remedies at least two of the three missing components. The only skooma dealer in Riften in the base game can be encountered when you are trying to end his operations-that's just silly. There's no gambling, there's no brothel (unless you count Healga's Bunkhouse.), and the nearest Skooma den is half way to Ivarstead.

Did someone tell you that Riften was a 'den of vices'? Well it isn't.
