This mod is part of my series to renovate vanilla characters with additional depth and interaction, similar to the other Dialogue Expansion mods.
Features:
1. Expands Aela the Huntress with 2129 immersive, lore-friendly lines, all voiced by high quality AI (see the video for reference)
2. Quest awareness for the Companions questline, Dark Brotherhood questline, College of Winterhold questline, vanilla main quest, DLC main quest, all Daedric quests and many side quests
(Refer to this list for details)

3. Many new story-driven interactions
4. Romance arc and new romantic lines if she is married
5. Tell Aela to turn into a werewolf during combat
6. Location-awareness, including cities and dungeons
7. Wake-up calls
8. Completely lore-friendly, expanding rather than completely rewriting the character
9. Immerse into your game world as a character who lives in it rather than taking over the show
This mod is 100% compatible with any mod, including dialogue expansion mods from other authors.
Safe to add or update mid-save.
There is a potential for future expansion with Aela, including optional synergy with the overarching Shezarrine Saga

Update:
2025/6/9 - Aela will now transform into a werewolf during the final battle of Ill Met By Moonlight. Fixed a punctuation error in a wake-up call line.
2025/6/10 - Fixed Aela's werewolf behavior. The player will now actually whistle to tell Aela to transform. If the player is in a town, Aela will say no to transformation and the power cooldown will end immediately.
2025/6/15 - Fixed the commentary on the Companion twins curing lycanthropy. Fixed the romance not progressing.
2025/7/10 - Lowered the chance for Aela to say her exit combat lines to make them less repetitive.
2025/7/14 - Fixed various lines' approval status. Improved the player's lines in Aela's romance.
2025/7/20 - Fixed several lines in Lost to the Ages not triggering, and some "What's on your mind" not triggering.
2025/8/5 - Fixed the issue where Aela doesn't react to the followers who were added in 8.0.
2025/8/12 - Fixed the issue where Aela says the Dark Brotherhood line even when the player has destroyed the Dark Brotherhood.

I have a bug with her. After my character marries her she can't be interacted at all. She keeps saying "We have nothing to talk about while you still stand with the Dark Brotherhood", although I never joined DB. I destroyed it. I can't recruit her again or interact with her in any way. What could cause this? Could you help me fix this, please?

Does Aela banter with Nebarra?
