Her given name is Jessimin, but she goes by the nickname Jessi which was given to her at a young age by her sister Uthgerd, who is also know as "Uthgerd the Unbroken". Born and raised in Whiterun, their Father, Ustad was an honored member of the  Companions guilds. The girls idolized their father and wanted to be a skilled fighter and a member as well. So they trained with him growing up and at 19 after their father died, Jessi wanted to travel Skyrim. During her travels her fighting skills and reputation increased. People from all over would seek her out to help with jobs such as dealing with bandits and thieves, she became a highly sot after mercenary. Over time, she grew to love what she does and had no desire to go back to Whiterun or become a companion, she loved the freedom and developed a wandering spirit, never staying in one place to long.

Jessi, now 25, recently got word that her sister Uthgerd had tried to get into the companions guild, but something went wrong and her sister now spends most of her time pissed off in the Bannered Mare drinking and starting brawls, which is nothing like the sister she remembered. Jessi wants to know what happened to her so she sets off to whiterun to find out. Jessi is hoping maybe Uthgerd will want to come with her so they can travel Skyrim together.

This is where the supposed Dragonborn finds Jessi, she is on the verge of beating some sense into her sister, the stubborn ass won't listen to reason. Maybe the Dragonborn can beat her in a brawl and make her see reason since everything she has tried doesn't seem to work.

F R E Q U E N T L Y    A S K E D     Q U E S T I O N S

Where can I find the follower?
Whiterun: Bannered Mare

Can I marry her?
YES. Using the normal marriage system.

How can I change the expression of a follower for screenshots?
Check out this mod: Facial Expressions Project by MegaSkittle.

I want to change a girl to another body type or option?
Make sure to dismiss the current follower version you are using, then use the In-Game Body Changer Spell to select another version.

How do I learn the body changer spell?
Just talk with Jessi when you first meet her and it will be a dialogue option.

Will you make the mod for another body type?
No. CBBE and UNP are the most common body types. If you want to use another body type you can do this yourself. See below.

The body textures seem slightly different between UNP and CBBE
The base texture that was used was Barbarous Beauty by BetterBecause, the CBBE version has not been modified since there were no major seams on the CBBE version of the Body. I prefer the UNP Based bodies and there were neck and wrist seams on the base textures. VRApollo merged various textures together to get the look I wanted for her that also eliminated the neck and wrist seams, he also created a custom muscle map (_msn). The faces are the same, the only different you may notice is the color tone of the femalehead.dds. See images. Both textures are great!

I want to change Jessi to another body type?
Like most custom followers this mod has a Meshes folder and a Textures folder. The first contains the shape, the latter what you see on that shape (the skin itself). If you want to replace the body type copy the .nif files of your body type to the folder Meshes\actors\character\VRJessi. You can find the .nif files in a similar Meshes folder in the archive of your body type mod. If you want to change textures copy the texture .dds files of you choice to the folder Textures\Actors\character\VRJessi\Body1. In all instances you should overwrite only the existing files of this mod, thus replacing them with your own. Likewise as with the meshes, the mod you use for body textures will have a Textures folder with the .dds files in it. Keep in mind that body meshes and textures must be of the same kind.

How can I change the shininess of the body?
Shininess depends on the ENB you use. Just like the above topic allows you to change body type, you can also copy your own specular maps. These files are usually in the same archive as your body textures, like in the Fair Skin Complexion, and determine the glossy or sweaty appearance of the hands, body and head. Just copy the _s.dds files over the existing files in the Textures folder of the Jessi mod. I recommend Fair Skin Goosebumps, she is using those in the majority of the images. They are not included because some don't like the shinier body.

Another question?
Check the Forums tab of this mod. You question might have already been asked and answered.
