I DID NOT MAKE THIS MOD! I SIMPLY PORTED IT! PLEASE GO TO THE ORIGINAL AUTHORS PAGE TO ENDORSE THEIR WORK!


I ported this to SSE from the original mod (see here: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/26445?tab=description) which has open permissions besides suggesting to seek permission from Tktk1 (as it uses his facegen files from his mod pretty khajiit) to which i have received permission from to use (see screenshot section)

another note is that I had to make some edits in CK to fix the issue with his outfit, fixed by assigning him a new one

there are 2 files: Uta Edition (changed his fur to black, renamed him Uta, and gave him the dark brotherhood robes) which requires Legacy of the dragonborn (for some reason I can't remove this dependency) and the 'original' version (pretty much the same outside of changing his clothes to the thieves guild outfit, which i chose simply cause the Uta edition had dark brotherhood outfit and i liked the dynamic) which has no dependency on LoTD
I made him use the 'cartoony' face by default (so cute!) I also used the 'non-replacer' files so Samuel is still Samuel!

I couldn't find fitting enough outfit outside these ones that looked good on him (neck seam)

also know whatever khajiit/clothing re-texture mod you use he will use as well (I recommend Masculine Khajiit by MONSTERaider and Rustic clothing by Gamwich)

please note if I am asked to take this down by either tktk1 or hl84 then i will, as they have every right to do so!

Compatible with Simple Children so long as you allow simple children to overwrite (at least with Mod Organizer that is the case) this mod otherwise Samuel will face the 'black face bug'
I am unsure as to the other children overhaul mods






Description from original mod page (with grammar and spelling edits) know that any links posted are for Oldrim not SE:



Ma’Rakha is….
Ma’Rakha is a child of Riften. Around the Ratway is the best play ground for him,
for now…

Ma’Rakha’s mother worked for the Honorhall Orphanage, but harsh weather of both Skyrim and it's people's discrimination made her weaker and weaker, to which she couldn’t recover from.

But fortunately Ma’Rakha is such a cheerful and clever boy, he's grown up as the sweetest child ever, although even he has been lonely between the Nords.

He's a perfect child. The bad rumor that he learned the pickpocket skill from the ratway’s thieves cannot so much as be a fault. 

Ma’Rakha has hope. It’s very simple but earnest hope. He wants to have a family, a real family who can be with him and love him all the time. Big house and fine clothes are not an attractive suggestion for him, because you are the one he really wants to have. 
“Could you be my family..?"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------




This is a simple mod that replaces Samuel who is one of orphan on Riften orphan house to Khajiit boy called Ma’Rakha to make player can adopt kahjiit race child for Hearthfile DLC.
You can adopt him after you finish the first dark brotherhood quest.

I highly recommend using cover khajiit texture mod ( http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/5941 ) this will make him nicer.

Different with other child, he could be nice follower, if you are using mod called “Make any child your follower” http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/23030 

He will have 80% level of your level
He loves you so much, so he will not be against you even if you commit crimes
He is really good at lock picking
He is good at sneaking and one handed weapon
He can use duel weapons
He prefers light armor
He is a sweet child, so he will not attack anybody until he gets hit.

for optional file
-cartoony face patch
it make his face more cartoony and cuter. 

-Korean translate version
Korean translate esp file

_________________________________change log_____________________________________

added a non-placer version so Ma'Rakha will not replace Samuel
you can still can meet Ma'Rakha at the Riften orphanage
for safety I highly recommend install this mod after youu first visit the Riften orphanage.





Known issues
Do not give him child clothes. He cannot wear it. (But he can wear every other outfit outside of child clothes, you can play around with console commend or try to use some other mod make you can access to children’s inventory, or crack open the CK)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
if you want to give child clothes to him 
try out my other mod 
Child clothes for adult based children-My little addon 

http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/26952

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



If you are playing around with other outfita, some of outfits are going to make crack between neck and body. I put a special cloth collar inside his inventory for just in case of this. Use it. It'll hide his neck seam.

If you already adopted Samuel before install this mod, he will change to Ma’Rakha. But he might be naked. In this case use console key to remove his child clothes. Then he will change his clothes to default outfit.

If you are bringing him as follower it could have the skill bug that make your follower’s skill value stuck on minimum level. This bug is not from my mod it’s from the game itself. 
How to fix 
1. Open the console commend window ( ` key)
2. Click the kid
3. Then you are going to get reference Id of Ma’Rakha on above consol commend window. 
4. Type setclass XXX01d9f and enter (XXX are front three numbers from reference Id of Ma’Rakha )


Requirement 

Hearth fire DLC
