About this mod

Makes vampires' choice of clothes more like it was before Dawnguard DLC. This is a somewhat toned-down version of the original mod, with fewer outfits and removed dependency.

[Link to the original mod]

As someone who played Skyrim the first couple times without any DLC installed, i found it a bit jarring how Dawnguard added a special armor to all vampires everywhere.
The way i see it, vampires in random caves are just people who happened to be infected with vampirism, not smaller branches of Volkihar.
So, i was pretty glad when i found the mod by AndrealphusVIII, and even more so when i saw it has open permissions so i could tweak it to my (and possibly other users') liking.

What changed.
Same as with the original, non-Volkihar vampires will not use the Volkihar armor (aka "Vampire Armor").
Most vampires will wear black robes, although some will spawn with other outfits.

What i've actually changed is the "other outfits" part.
Now that will only include:

  • Regular clothes (Common and some upper-class are bundled together now, so there should be more combinations).
  • Vampire clothes (Not vampire armor, but there is a chance to spawn with vampire armor boots and gloves).
  • "Bandit" armor (light or heavy).

I've removed any faction armor (e.g. Civil War or Thieves Guild), as well as some of the more specialized outfits (e.g. Chef or Blacksmith).
So this version is just a matter of personal taste, use the original if you'd prefer to see those, or Heritage if you want even more variety.

Also removed USSEP dependency, and there is a version that reverts to pre-Dawnguard outfits but without the extras mentioned above.

Some future plans.
An optional, even more toned-down version that would just be black robes and nothing else, like it was before Dawnguard, if there's a demand.
A backport to LE.
Nothing else for now.
