~B i r t h p l a c e   u n k n o w n~


Luna was born into the world of Skyrim, as a descendant from an ancient Elven tribe, even long before the now extinct snow elves.

Being last of her tribe no one knows how she came into existence. However, the reappearance of the Dragons and connection to the Dragonborn might have had something to do with it.

As a kid, Luna had no clue about her hidden powers, but as she grew older, more tattoo's started appearing all over her body. These were no normal tattoo's, but a sign of her dark power awakening within herself. A power so dangerous that, when people learnt about it, they would surely destroy her on sight.

As she grew into an adult, the tattoo's started covering her whole face. Slowly, Luna started to notice that her powers were developing. The most difficult magical spells were no problem anymore and she possessed an almost inhuman strength.

This dark power that has been growing inside of her since her birth, is slowly awakening. Luna herself, after reaching her adult years, knew something was very wrong. She started fearing the change in her body as it was slowly trying to take over her will.

It was then that she learned that she carried a great dark power within her that rivaled the Dragonborn. The tribe she belonged to was one older than the snow elves. As the legends tell that the Dragonborn rises as a beacon of hope against the darkness, a being of Darkness also comes into the world. Alduin was thought to be that being. They were mistaken.

The future of Luna could be a violent one. A battle between the Dragonborn and her might be unavoidable. Will they become friends or will they become rivals? The future will tell…

~T h e   n o w~
                                                  

Currently Luna has been in Skyrim for 23 years, which is her supposed age. Her dark powers inside her make her an extremely dangerous person when she loses her mind. The most difficult magic, necromancy and all-round fighting skills are what she uses to destroy her enemies.

Luna’s playful personality gets her into trouble everywhere she goes. Her latest adventure brought her to the Temple of High Hrothgar to study the power of the 'shouts'.

The player will come across Luna as she breaks into High Hrothgar. Possibly to disturb those poor old priests yet again to steal the secret of their powers. Will the Dragonborn be able to handle Luna’s ever changing personality and dark secret power and convince her to team up..?


Race: Ningheim race.
Combat style: Master of deadly magic. Luna is extremely skilled in heavy magic spells, necromancy and all-round fighting.

This port of the vanilla 'L u n a' mod was made possible by LadyMilla! Credits of this port go to her!

However, me (GodOfVengeance), VRDaphni and VRApollo don't play Skyrim Special Edition and as such can't support this mod actively. Luna SE does not feature HDT hair, because that is currently impossible. Without the HDT hair, many of the old issues should not exist and she should work perfectly. If, however, there are issues, you can always report them. Depending on how big potential issues can be, I can see if there is a way to fix them. I do not expect any issues, though.

Secondly, 'No tattoo' and 'Dry skin' optionals are added, but are untested. However, since they are merely texture changes, they should all work without any issues.

Lastly, all featured pictures and/or video's are from vanilla Skyrim.

Thank you! :)

Luna is a standalone follower. This means that there are no other mods required. You can simply download and install her using the Nexus Mod Manager.

Manual install
Not advised. However, in case you really want to, just unpack the files from the .zip file and put them in your data folder. Don't forget to activate the Luna.esp in your load order.

Where can I find Luna?
You will be able to find Luna inside the temple of High Hrothgar. You will have to climb the mountain to meet her (or just fast travel)!

To find her easily, the moment you walk in from the front door, she will almost always be sitting on a bench immediately to the right of the right front door. It's a bit dark there, so look closely, haha.

In case you really want to recruit her, but you are not far enough in the story yet to enter High Hrothgar, use the console and type in 'unlock' against the locked door to get in, recruit Luna, and continue on your journey.

Can I marry Luna?
Yes, you can! :)

I don’t like the piercing, it clips a lot when she talks.
You can always unequip the piercing if you don’t like it.

I want to change Luna to a different body type?
Like most custom followers this mod has a Meshes folder and a Textures folder. The first contains the shape, the latter what you see on that shape (the skin itself). If you want to replace the body type copy the .nif files of your body type to the folder Meshes\actors\character\Luna. You can find the .nif files in a similar Meshes folder in the archive of your body type mod. If you want to change textures copy the texture .dds files of you choice to the folder Textures\Actors\character\Luna\Body1. In all instances you should overwrite only the existing files of this mod, thus replacing them with your own. Likewise as with the meshes, the mod you use for body textures will have a Textures folder with the .dds files in it. Keep in mind that body meshes and textures must be of the same kind.
