[size=14]Description
==========================================================================================================================================[/size]

These mods replace the faces of Erik the Slayer before and after he becomes an elligible follower, of Vorstag, of Onmund, of Marcurio, of Stenvar, of Belrand, of Benor, of Mjoll the Lioness and Aerin, of the 5 housecarls: Argis the Bulwark, Calder, Iona, Jordis the Sword-Maiden and Lydia, of 6 of the companions: Vilkas, Farkas, Aela the Huntress, Athis, Njada Stonearm and Ria, and of Jenassa, Uthgerd the Unbroken and Brelyna Maryon.

It also adds three custom high elf male followers, Finrod, Amroth and Mablung. You can find them at the Temple of Kynareth in Whiterun.
Finrod is a Spellsword, Amroth a Ranger and Mablung a 2 handed warrior.

They are fully compatible with UFO and Convenient Horses.

I've tried to make Mjoll's face (she is a Nord) as close as possible to the first face I made for my character Sienna (she is an Imperial), as requested on Steam. And as Aerin is her loyal companion, I've tweaked his face, too.

If you see a neck gap in any of the followers:
1.- open the console
2.- select follower by clicking on him

[size=14]Install
==========================================================================================================================================[/size]

Install using Nexus Mod Manager (NMM)
-------------------------------------
1. Download the file
2. Select the file in the Mods tab of NMM, and click on the "Activates the selected mod" button.
When asked if you want to overwrite existing files say "Yes to all".

If you are using a mod that affects followers, like UFO, make sure that AsharaFollowerFaces.esp is loaded after the esp file from that mod (UFO-Ultimate Follower Overhaul.esp) or you will see their default faces in game.

[size=14]Uninstall

[size=14]Incompatibility
==========================================================================================================================================[/size]

Any other mod that replaces the faces of the NPCs contained here.

IMPORTANT - Load Order:
Ashara SSE Followers Facews has been tested by Brataccas with KS Hairdos Lite and Seraphim Female Body Replacer. If you're using these mods together your load order must look like this:

KS Hairdos Lite
Adorable Faces
Ashara's Follower Faces
Seraphim Female Body Replacer
Natural Eyes

Please note that all of these mods except Natural Eyes change the face textures and the one at the bottom of the load order 'wins' - Seraphim (if you're using it) has to come last or you'll see neck seams on your characters. Also note that any mods that add or change the behaviour of NPCs can conflict with mods that change their appearance - always place them *above* KS Lite in your load order.

If you're using a cosmetic mod not listed above it's recommended you always place it *below* KS Lite in your load order. If you have any compatibility issues then please send me a message so I can speak to the mod's author in order to find a fix. If you follow these instructions and you're still getting characters with missing/wrong/pixellated textures something other than these mods in your load order is causing it.
