This is the way to do it if spawing the NPC from the all.spawn and its also needed to keep him there this is how i spawned blade in my LITZ mod

NOTE: DO NOT COPY AND PASTE AS IT WONT WORK THAT WAY

the things below don't show the slashs it just takes them away so don't copy and paste it all as it wont work

I Really hope this helps you

you have to edit quite a few files:

Config>Text>ENG:

Stable_bio_name.xml

Config>Gameplay:

NPC_Profile.xml Character_desc_escape

Config>Cretures:

m_stalker.ltx

scripts or Config>scripts not sure which one

Change the according gulag script EG:gulag_escape

and then you would have to edit the all.spawn to accomadate and spawn him

(shows example of blade My character from my LITZ mod)

m_stalker.ltx

[esc_blade]:stalker
character_profile = esc_blade
visual            = actors\dolg\stalker_do_nauchniy.ogf
corpse_visual     = actors\dolg\stalker_do_nauchniy.ogf
immunities_sect   = stalker_immunities

thats placed at the bottom

Apart from the gulag scripts thats pretty much it i belive however if i missed something out im sure someone will point it out and correct it or even explain it better

Hope this helped you please tell me if this worked for you.
