What's New in version 1.29.5
Block Training for KC was updated to overcome a USLEEP conflict.
Alteration Training for Katriss was updated for precautionary reasons.
Updated the skeleton(s) to latest version of XPMSE version 4.80
Spark Spell for Katriss is now Left-Hand only. Spark Spell for Kayseey is now Right-Hand only.

This latest update looks safe to simply overwrite any previous versions with.
I had no problems using this update on my last save by replacing the older ESP.

What's New in 2021 - Version 1.29.3
*** Different voices, Katriss has Sultry - can marry & adopt. (was Commander)
*** Kayseey has a YoungEager voice now. Can marry & adopt. (was EvenToned)
*** Summon scrolls were added in two locations for these two followers. It doubles the odds of bumping
into them. Normally they'd come up & greet you, now you can use a scroll to make first contact also.
*** I got around to cleaning up the corpses of the slain opponents from both their respective quests.
*** Invisible torch carry bug was fixed. Shouldn't carry invisible torch now & again anymore.
*** I did not ESL their two .esp files. Next best thing was to merge the two mods instead.
*** Version 1.29.2 includes updated facegendata files to prevent possible *grey face bug* issues.
*** Version 1.29.3 Removed Atronach Perk from Katriss, magical visual effect would stick to her sometimes.

The scrolls are new so explanation. Scrolls to summon them can be found in 2 caves.
When you install both followers then scrolls for both women will be found in each cave.
If you only install Katriss, her scrolls are in the Steamscorch mine in Kynesgrove.
Kayseey standalone has scrolls in the Quicksilver mine in Dawnstar.


Location for Katriss
The Reach. Somewhere inside Old Hroldan Inn. (SW of Rorikstead)
Minimum level required for her to accept following you is 3


Learn more about her cousin Kayseey by visiting her Skyrim LE. page, Kayseey follower - Nord-Elf ranger OMOD.

Before you read the long list of Perks & such and think she's overpowered I need to remind players that to get to higher tiers in one field the lower tier also has to be included within the followers Perks.

Too many followers in Skyrim want to be good & great at some things but alas the followers don't have the lower perks which makes the higher perks unobtainable, even if the follower has it included.

Example: a follower can be Adept in a magic school & have that Perk but Novice & Apprentice must be included in their Perks also or the Adept & higher tier Perks will never be granted. They are prerequisites.
