DESCRIPTION
Pale Hold Refine is a rustic and faithful NPC appearance package of nearly every character in Dawnstar and the Greater Pale Hold area, staying true to the vanilla game and lore while incorporating some of my personal preferences. This is an on-going project that will hopefully encompass every NPC in Skyrim by the end. Pale Hold covers Dawnstar, Anga's Mill, Hall of the Vigilant, Loreius Farm, and Nightgate Inn. It does not cover The White Hall, Civil War NPCs, or Leveled List NPCs, as they are in their own package. In the meantime, consider checking out Windsong Immersive Character Overhaul, whose overall visual design helped inspire the direction of this mod and years of Skyrim modding.
Some changes from Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch (AI packages and additional bug fixes) have been forwarded for convenience. However, and in most cases, any mod that edits an Actor record with require a compatibility patch.
CHANGES
Dawnstar: Beitild, Brina Merilis, Horik Halfhand, Fruiki, Irgnir, Bodil, Gjak, Karl, Leigelf, Rstleif, Seren, Silus Vesuius, Captain Wayfinder, Guthrum, Ravam Verethi, Abelone, Erandur, Gjuk, Alding, Irlof, Karita, Stig Salt-Plank, Thoring, Borgny, Edith, Lond
Anga's Mill: Aeri, Ennodius Papius, Kodrir, Leifur
Hall of the Vigilant: Keeper Carcette
Heljarchen Hall: Markus, Oriella
Loreius Farm: Curwe, Vantus Loreius
Nightgate Inn: Hadring, Fultheim, Balagog gro-Nolob
Alftand Cathedral: Umana, Sulla Trebatius
LORE
Changes have been made in an effort to better reflect a character's lore and backstory. Due to the nightmare involving Vermina, many of the citizens of Dawnstar appear more tired and lacking sleep. Miners, the sick, and the lame have been given appearances to better suit them. They have untrimmed eyebrows, more dirt on their face, dark tint-masks. Characters have been made to look younger or older based on the age of their children and community-consensus. Many NPCs with otherwise default faces have been given completely new appearances. Blacksmiths have been given darker faces to reflect their line of work.
An additional extension has been made available to further integrate more mods into the game such as Creation Club Content or Beyond Skyrim. Track the mod and my profile on Nexus to stay up to date with this project.
Erandur is a powerful follower when in the right party.
