Permissions and credits
A NOTE REGARDING THIS AND MY OTHER MODS: I will not be putting out any new versions of Lydia The Unburdened, Shakuntala or Visarra until I upgrade my PC sometime early next year. I will not return to Skyrim until that time (I still have Dragonborn and Falskaar to finish so I have plenty reason to return) so I can play / run in full Ultra settings. I will update with more info when available. Thank you for your use of my mods!


CHECK OUT WHAT'S IN VERSION 3.0!

Apachii SkyHair is no longer needed.
Lydia's armor in the pictures is the excellent Argent Armor - Royal Retexture by Messias Mummo.


Lydia 3.0 is both a complete reboot of the Lydia mod, and a upgrade to the existing editions.
Please note this version REPLACES all other versions, and is the only support version going forward.

A note about Blonde mode: Blonde mode is being dropped in favor of keeping one uniform version of Lydia The Unburdened between the Nexus and Steam. There will be an old version of 2.9A available for download for those who prefer it.

NEW FEATURES 3.0:

PERKED LIFE

Lydia now uses her own set of perks!
She is a weapon master, and excels with 1-Handed and 2-Handed weapons.
She can also dual-wield, and equip shields if you feel froggy, but she'll do the most damage with a 2-Handed weapon or two one-handeds.
She CAN and WILL decapitate your enemies, or perform excruciating finishing moves on them.


POWER OF MAGIC

Lydia can now cast spells!
She knows Oakflesh and Courage, and will cast them as needed on herself.



DETAILED FEATURES:

Version 3.0


Turns Lydia into an imposing and hulking housecarl that's taller than male nords by over a foot. She now has loose black hair and a much lighter complexion than vanilla (best used with the Mature Skin mod "http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/32986//?"). Her face has been reworked from Version 2.0 and her hairstyle has been changed so that it no longer requires Apachii Skyhair. The hairstyle is Skyrim Vanilla. The bodystyle she is built on is the CBBE body, regular version, with the CBBE FacePack. I also use the I Love Cleavage Mod, which you may find useful. If you want her looking just like my screenshots, these are the mods to get. They're not required.

Lydia's voice has been altered so that she now sounds like she looks, which is very imposing. She uses the "Female Commander" voice-set, and now speaks to you with respect and loyalty. No more "I am SWORN to carry your burdens, you bastard."

Lydia will level with you up to Level 80. She is quick on her feet, and may even surprise you with how quickly she takes out your foes while you're running around trying to get away. By default, she will not attack mostly unless you tell her to, or you're detected and enemies charge you. Try not to hit her with random spells as this will piss her off, though she will forgive you (unless you keep doing it).

She has her own custom combat style, but now also has her own Perks and Spells, too. She is a Weapon Master and basic spell caster, using the spells Courage and Oakflesh on herself. She does the most damage with 2 handed weapons, but will also inflict copious amounts of pain with dual one-handed weapons too. WARNING - GORE ALERT: Lydia can and will decapitate your foes, or do worse things to them. She don't play like that.


Thanks for the continued support of myself and Lydia the Unburdened!

This mod has been play-tested EXTENSIVELY on my own computer and I have had ZERO problems.
If you can leave a comment explaining any problems you are having, I will try to help you out, but understand sometimes I cannot reproduce the situation you are having. Also, I am currently working two jobs, so I may be slow to get back with you, if I can help you.

9 out of 10 people who download this, however, have no issues!
