Morphs for Alistair in DA2

NOTE: THESE ARE UNTESTED
I haven't gotten to this point in my playthrough, yet, so I can't say for certain that they will work.

To use, unzip and drop the .erf files into your DA2 override directory.




These are packages containing mods for Alistair in DA2 that should HOPEFULLY more closely resemble vanilla Alistair.

I made two versions of King and Warden Alistair. These are:

A younger version, which I think is more aesthetically pleasing and closer to the Alistair we remember from Origins

An aged version, which is probably more realistic considering the amount of time that has passed. It won't look as good or seem as familiar, however, and is probably a bit TOO aged (though perhaps not: look at how much Barack Obama has aged in two years as president!).

Unfortunately, there's no in-between in the young and aged options I used in the character creator. So we're stuck with "unrealistically young" or "too old."

(I didn't make younger and aged version of Drunk!Alistair. I think he's perfect the way he is. If I get requests for it, I will make a younger version of him, since the complexion setting I used for him is even older than the "aged" setting.)

I also made versions with custom hair (both young and aged.) In these, King!Alistair has Cailan's hair, Warden!Alistair has Duncan's hair, and Drunk!Alistair has some random shaggy mop.

The nose isn't really right, but I don't think it's possible to get it any closer given the tools I have. Origins!Alistair has a kind of bony, aquiline nose, and all the options in DA2 make it seem too round. Sorry.

I started out designing the younger King Alistair since that was going to be the closest to Origins!Alistair. That way I could get an appreciation for how similar it was to Origins!Alistair, then aged or tweak it as necessary. The variations are as follows:

YOUNG KING ALISTAIR--both default and custom hair:
*"Rosy" skin-tone, more pink shades than yellow. Not too pale but not tan, either.
*Blond goatee

AGED KING ALISTAIR--same as Young King Alistair, except:
*Aged the complexion one notch from Young Alistair

WARDEN ALISTAIR:
*More tanned skin tone. Figure he has an active life.
*Darker, fuller stubble. (Blond didn't look right with the skin tone)

DRUNK ALISTAIR:
*Paler, more sallow complexion
*Aged a step beyond the "aged" King and Warden Alistair (because drinking heavily makes you look old after a while.)
*Slightly larger nose (because drinking heavily for a prolonged period seems to give you a bulbous nose.)
*Full, dark stubble
