- Permissions and credits
Basic description:
======================================================
Fjri (pronounced Fury) is a Viera Elementalist straight from Ivalice. She is good with both magic and swords. She has fortified magicka, can absorb spells, and has a toggleable Detect Life spell. Her best friend, Taranu, is actually a tiger. Taranu is a strong fighter, and will come to Fjri when she calls. Fjri can also order Taranu to wait or follow by talking to her.
Everything you need to play this race comes bundled. You do not need to download anything else but HGEC. No need to use any other Viera races unless you want to.
That said, moving on to a checklist of sorts.
What is included in this mod?
Elementalist race with all parts needed to play it (all meshes (except HGEC) and textures).
One hair and eye option for Fjri.
Taranu's meshes and textures.
Working scripts.
What is NOT included in this mod?
More hair and eye options.
Armor shown in the screenshots.
To get different hairs, you replace the hair in the mod with a hair of your choosing. There is an attached tutorial. The same can be done with eyes, as long as they are using the EE mesh.

Incompatibility
===========================================================
Should be compatible with everything. It does not copy or overwrite any other Viera races. All the meshes, textures, and scripts have as unique of names as I could easily get them. Nothing should overwrite anything.
Known Issues or Bugs
==========================================================
I've made her body markings as smooth and clean as possible, but there will be some unavoidable fuzziness and seams due to the way it wraps on the mesh. It's by no means perfect, but if it bothers you, just don't play as the race.
Taranu sometimes acts weird around water (runs away from it, gets stuck at the bottom of a pond), so you'll need to summon her back to you once you're away from water. Occasionally, when you've been sneaking and stand up to fight enemies, she will not register you are done sneaking. This means she won't fight. To fix it, talk to her a few times until her AI resets.
Other than that, I don't know of any bugs. If you find any LEGITIMATE bugs, please let me know. If you are having general problems, read the FAQ.
FAQs
===========================================================
These are the questions I am most commonly asked. If you have a problem or question, please read this first. Chances are, it has been addressed. If you ask me any of these questions, I will ignore you. As a last note, English is not my first language. I can understand it usually, but when you type without vowels, use excessive abbreviations or contractions, create run-on sentences, and fail to use grammar in general, it makes you nearly impossible to understand. For my sake, please type legibly.
-The save says it is missing content?
It will still work. Load it up anyway.
-The race doesn't appear?
Make sure you are patched to the latest version. See relevant links.
-The textures look warped/slanted/messed up?
You need to be using HGEC and HGEC clothing. Look in relevant links section.
-The textures look fine if my character is naked, but with clothes they become warped/slanted/messed up?
Make sure the clothing or armor you are wearing is made for HGEC. For vanilla versions, see relevant links.
-There are missing parts of my body, black parts of my body, pink things, exclamation points, help!
I have thoroughly tested this mod and none of that should happen. Reinstall it again and make sure everything is in the correct folders.
-Why do some of her markings look fuzzy?
The markings are made around various bends and seams in the mesh. This means that they are not 100% perfect, as if they had been painted onto a real body. I have done my best to make them as seamless and correctly-shaped as possible.
-Why does Taranu (act funny)?
Sometimes, Taranu avoids water strangely. Other times, if you've been sneaking, her script will not update and she will not fight. Talk to her a few times to reset the AI.
-Will you make (x) mesh/animation for this race?
No. I do not have any skill with making meshes or animations.
-HGEC screwed up all my vanilla races, and it's all your fault!
No, it's not. If installing these mods messed up your vanilla races, discuss it on the appropriate threads. I did not make these body mods, so if they don't work, it's not my problem.
-This mod is conflicting with (x mod) by (whatever problem is).
No biggie. Make sure to load the conflicting mods AFTER this one.
-Well, will you make a patch for (x mod)?
No. There are countless mods out there, and I do not have the time to make patches for any that might conflict. However, if somebody else makes some, I will be sure to link to them here.
-Where did you get the armor in (x) screenshot?
The armor recolored to be Elementalist armor is unavailable for download. I apologize.
