Some leftover-Volkihar-family replacers to match with my Serana Replacer that I made a few weeks ago (Thanks for all the support and nice feedback from the few commenters!). This is one of the few rare times of me trying to make a male replacer, and while I'm not exactly happy with it
These replacers aren't as customizable,
⋆｡⚓ V O L K I H A R B O R attempts (not 100%) to stay true to the Vanilla vision of Harkon & Valerica, with custom hair edits from KS Hairdo's by Kalilies & Stealthic, using Textures by ShinglesCat. Both hairs have been 'Hair Shader Patched' (script by CakeofHonor) - meaning their hairs are able to be shaded properly for magic effects + rain weathers (for ENBs).
! This has resulted in the hair to look a little rougher, but I like it this way!
If this isn't your vision of the Volkihars, that's okay! I created them based off of my own modlist, and we all have our own style of NPCs for our modlists. There are plenty of other great Harkon/Valerica replacers out there!
Important! I noticed I got some 'negative' comments on how 'old' my Serana replacer looked. While it is completely okay to not like my replacers, I'd like to emphasize some stuff -
1. While I understand 'old' is perceived differently in many countries: as someone who's in their early 20s, I never understood nor will understand this universal double standard of 'ageing is bad' - especially for women. I'd like to emphasize that I do not consider this as 'feedback' and it can be considered hurtful and a bit rude to others.
Ageing is a privilege and a beauty that many people should not shy away from! ❤️
2. (?) My nationality has nothing to do with how 'old-looking' my replacers look. It's a very weird connection - idk how that even came up.
Please do be respectful in the comments both in feedback and to others.
⋆｡ AND NO I WILL NEVER MAKE THE VAMPIRES LOOK AWAKE HEHE ｡⋆
Hard Requirements:
- None
Soft Requirements:
+ BnP - Female Skin (Mature V.17) !NSFW! - Optional, but the replacer was created with this skin specifically (Valerica).
+ BnP - Male Skin (Something rough normals/elder idr) !NSFW! - Optional, but the replacer was created with this skin specifically (Harkon).
+ Expressive Facegen Morphs & Expressive Facial Animations for Females / Expressive Facial Animations for Males - Optional, I'm unsure if any weird facial animations may cause clippings without them, but do test it without!
I've created a FOMOD installer featuring multiple options to choose from:
☸ Harkon only - Valerica only - or BOTH.
☸ Different Hairs for Valerica - V1, V2.
☸ 1k facetints
☸ Integrate Height tweaks (1.03+ for Harkon, 1.01+ for Valerica) or keep it Vanilla.
The plugin was created in SSEEDIT (CK hates me atm) and is ESL.
USSEP records were forwarded, but USSEP is not required.
Note: I created this replacer in the 1.6.640 version (Plugin v.1.70), and it should work regardless of the new update.
NB! Please do double-check if everything was properly installed on your end. I've tested out all the versions and haven't encountered any problems, but modlists differ.
Any other Harkon and/or Valerica Replacer - incompatible unless you overwrite!
Make sure that 'Volkiharbor - x.esp' (whatever you chose) is loaded AFTER any plugins that edit their NPC record(s).
Overwrite ANY facegen meshes/textures that the files conflicts with to avoid dark face bug.
1. Skin replacers matter! ⋆˙⟡♡
The NPCs were made with BnP - Female skin !NSFW! and BnP - Male Skin !NSFW! in mind by Fridam & Khisartin.
- The mod will use your installed skin (or vanilla skin) by default.
- Therefore, they might not look how they are 'supposed' to look on your setup.
I highly recommend BnP - Female Skin & BnP - Male Skin, it makes NPCs look much more better!
Check spoilers below to compare skins.

2. ENB Setups & Reshaders look different for everyone!⋆˙⟡♡
As with most NPC replacers, the NPCs will always look different for everyone - considering ENBs and shaders!
- The hairs may look too shiny in some ENBs if your [Imagespace] and / or [Wetsurfaces] have high values for certain parameters.
- Sometimes, they don't always look so great/ I might have catfished you, but not really ❤️
Spoiler: Show 
My ENB is a mess of edits/tweaks off of other ENB tweaks with a personal reshade preset.Cabbage ENB for NAT 3 Weather
+ mashup of Rudy ENB for NAT 3 (for certain cells and worldspaces)
❌Please do not upload my mod as a standalone - both publicly and privately.
❌You are not allowed to modify them and their assets, and then upload it as your own - both publicly and privately.
- Of course, you are allowed to modify them for your own personal use!
✅You are allowed to create patches! (If it comes to making them almost standalone, feel free to contact me about questions!)
☸ I'm open for edits if something is amiss- amiss, as in if I had accidentally messed up some head meshes (very unlikely hopefully, all my replacers get tested!).
☸ However, I won't make a whole new replacer for you if there are certain nitpicks you don't like/wish to integrate or remove! (·•᷄ࡇ•᷅)
I'm hella unfamiliar with SMP patching hairs - trust me I've tried - so I won't be doing none of dat!
Finally,
I'm a person who enjoys modding Skyrim on her freetime, along with training to become big buff Nord at the gym with a 9-5 job. Therefore, I might be very bad at replying at once! Sorry about that! ( • ᴖ • ｡)
