About this mod
Replaces Morrigan's weird Electricity staff with her iconic Cold staff from Origins.
- Permissions and credits
In Dragon Age: Origins, Morrigan starts out with a tree-branch-looking staff that deals Cold elemental damage. I always thought it felt correct to spec her into cold spells (especially since her unique robes give her buffs to Cold damage and she starts with the Winter's Grasp spell), and I think her starting staff is fairly iconic, particularly since she has it equipped when you meet her again in Witch Hunt. In Dragon Age: Inquisition, the staff Morrigan uses while accompanying your party in the Arbor Wilds is a completely different Electricity staff, copy-pasted from a vanilla staff. While this may have been intentional on the developers' part, looking at the implementation I'd personally guess it probably wasn't. Her classic staff's model was present in the game files, so I changed the weapon data to use that model and swapped its element from Electricity to Cold. Now, Morrigan's staff (or her default staff, at least) is consistent throughout Origins and Inquisition.
Installation
Install with Frosty Mod Manager.
Compatibility
This mod will only conflict with mods that modify the weapon record equip_staff_t3_2_morrigan. As far as I know, no other mods do this, so it's compatible with everything. Nothing related to Morrigan's appearance or NPC data is affected.
