Category: NPC

Description

===========

These mods replace the faces of Erik the Slayer before and after he becomes an elligible follower, of Vorstag, of Onmund, of Marcurio, of Stenvar, of Belrand, of Benor, of Mjoll the Lioness and Aerin, of the 5 housecarls: Argis the Bulwark, Calder, Iona, Jordis the Sword-Maiden and Lydia, of 6 of the companions: Vilkas, Farkas, Aela the Huntress, Athis, Njada Stonearm and Ria, of Jenassa, Uthgerd the Unbroken and Brelyna Maryon.



It also adds three custom high elf male followers, Finrod, Amroth and Mablung. You can find them at the Temple of Kynareth in Whiterun.

Finrod is a Spellsword, Amroth a Ranger and Mablung a 2 handed warrior.



They are fully compatible with UFO and Convenient Horses.



I've tried to make Mjoll's face (she is a Nord) as close as possible to the first face I made for my character Sienna (she is an Imperial), as requested on Steam. And as Aerin is her loyal companion, I've tweaked his face, too.



If you see a neck gap in any of the followers:

1.- open the console

2.- select follower by clicking on him
