About this mod

This is my take on Angels and Fallen Angels in Skyrim. Plug and play, if you don't care about my preset or flight.

Version 0.3 in video
Above is a video in which I test an earlier version of the mod --> it shows off most of the available powers in the final product, including how to get your presets to work and not-included flight and wings. Since this video the mod has been finetuned a bit and Fallen Angels (Angel vampires with some differences in powers) have been added.

Version 2.1:
Version 2.0 was overwriting some things it shouldn't have been overwriting with its master, Race Compatibility. Now it should be better. One thing you may notice is that when you open up customization, your face looks wrinkly/scarred. Do not panic, this is no problem. Customization still works, but by default it uses skin complexion 1 - at least it does for me. Pre V2 this could not be changed normally because cutomization was wonky and needed a workaround. Now it can be switched from 1 to 0 without a problem and the skin will be silky smooth again, if this happens to you, too.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 2.0:
This version seems to have everything worked out. If you have problems, let me know. For me, it now works in my test profile, in my heavily modded profile and even in a vanilla profile. What was fixed? Customization now works as it should, presets work as they should, Vampire Lord works as it should, Better Vampires works as it should.
The only thing you should take note of is that those who use Better Vampires need to use the command player.setrace angelracevampire to become a Fallen Angel/vampire. This is known to the author of Better Vampires and he specifically instructs everyone to do so for custom races on his website.

A shoutout to TMPhoenix whom tried his very best to help me and to StackEmHigh for his compatibility guide. THE NEW FILE REQUIRES RACECOMPATIBILITY: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/24168/?

Simple Angels and Fallen Angels includes support for both males and females and your own Nord presets, or ones for RaceMenu that you download, should work fine, provided you do as I show in the Test Video above ^

WINGS AND FLIGHT ARE NOT INCLUDED, I wanted to keep it simple



For those not done reading yet, hello there and welcome to my new mod! This mod shows you my take on angels and fallen angels in Skyrim and as many of my mods, was originally only meant for me, but I decided to release it mid-development already. I waited until I was satisfied with it though ;)

So, what does this mod do for you? Well, you can pick the Angel Race from the start now, obviously, which comes with it's own set of spells and powers, mostly vanilla things tweaked to my liking and suitable for angels, in my opinion. You can become a vampire and this will make you a Fallen Angel; these have almost the same set of powers, but the names and descriptions and only in some cases, the effects too, are different from normal Angels.

The race used the Nord race as a template, both because it was my first attempt at a race mod and because my main goal for myself was that I could use my Nord presets as angels - this has at least been accomplished to a certain extent. If you have seen the test video, you must have seen the small workaround needed. This still needs to be done to edit the characters or presets, simply because I did not touch the problem after the video, since I don't see it as a major problem  - what I want from customizing my angels has been accomplished. Maybe I will try to iron it out a little better later on, but for now, I'm happy, as for me, a race is more about its functionality: powers!


Angels have the following powers:
Angel's Shield --> in the video it's called "Angel's Ward" and has a skill level attached to it. This is different now, as I made the spell update itself after certain restoration levels are met. The base spell is the vanilla Lesser Ward, but for a lower cost. The vanilla Lesser Ward uses a magnitude/power of 40 points. I call it Novice for the Shield, for ease of reference. With Restoration 40, it becomes Apprentice (without the name or cost changing!), with 50 as magnitude. Restoration 60 = Magnitude 60 (Adept), Restoration 75 = Magnitude 75 (Expert), Restoration 90 = Magnitude 100 (Master) and Restoration 100 = Magnitude 125 (Divine). Since armor rating also rises, this spell becomes very useful later on, if you don't level your armor skills very high.

Angel's Fury --> Once a day, you can cause a firestorm without a casting animation; does not give you destruction exp

Angel's Illumination (NOT IN THE VIDEO!) --> A candlelight spell that lasts for 5 minutes and can be cast as a power, without animation, cooldown, or cost

Angel's Touch --> Quite expensive restoration spell that heals the target/ally/enemy/whoever isn't dead, instantly. Up to 5000 HP and Stamina

Angel's Wish --> An area-of-effect healing power for anyone who isn't dead - once a day

Angel's Immunity --> 95% Disease Resistance (to allow becoming vampire, it was 100% in the video) and 100% poison resistance

Angel's Allure --> 25% better prices

Angel's Training --> 50% restoration spell cost reduction

Angel's Pact --> the Bosmer racial ability - a nearby animal will help you for 60 seconds, once a day

Angel's Feathers --> You take no fall damage at all, wings or no wings


Angel's Duty --> infinite stamina for 5 minutes, once a day


Divine Adrenaline --> infinite health/magicka/stamina (actually super fast regeneration) for 20 seconds, once a day - great for fight or flight


Fallen Angels have the following powers:
Vampire powers --> as they are vampires

ALL of the Angel's powers, except for the following changes:
- Fallen Angel's Pact does NOT make an animal help you, but resurrects a dead body up to level 99 for 60 seconds, once a day instead - be sure to aim the cursor at the body, the spell is a power and isn't cast with your hands!

- THERE IS NO ANGEL's/FALLEN ANGEL's ILLUMINATION! Because Night Vision. May change this later, as my ENB does not support night vision XD I use Sharpshooters Classic ENB, if you're curious

- Fallen Angel's Training --> reduces restoration AND conjuration costs by 25%

- Fallen Angel's Desire --> replaces Angel's Wish and drains hp from the area, instead of healing others! - once a day

- Fallen Angel's Immunity --> DOES NOT EXIST, well... it does, but I removed it in favor of the vanilla vampire disease and poison resistances. The descriptions said: "A Fallen Angel's already corrupted blood is 100% resistant to diseases/poisons"

How about Better Vampires? Is that supported? And: I cannot get my vampire/Fallen Angel to work? Help?
Well my friend, once infected, simply open the command console with the ~ key and type: player.setrace angelracevampire, hit ENTER, then close iwth the ~ key. Then wait until the effects are done doing their thing, open the Better Vampires MCM and go to Troubleshooting and Cleanup. Click the option to infect with Sanguinare Vampiris, exit, wait for it to reset. Then open the console again with ~, type: player.setpcsleephours 72, hit ENTER, close with ~, wait until the hours have passed and the effects take place again: done. 110% working ;)

Any requirements?
Nope. And Yes.... it depends. If you don't want to fly and don't want wings and don't want to get my preset to work properly, go ahead and enjoy. Otherwise, you can choose a flight mod (Flying Mod Beta or Real Flying), a wings mod/texture replacer and/or download the requirements for my Glitnir preset. Ironically Glitnir means blood in a story I wrote, but whatever.
