Veena is a simple follower, able to wield bows, daggers, and spells. If you read the title, she is a WIP. She has no quest or dialogue tied to her. She also doesn't have a voice actress just yet. Enjoy a (currently) silent follower on your adventures in Skyrim! Images taken with CBBE installed.

Overview Veena is an archer/mage Imperial follower. She currently has no voiced dialogue or quest tied to her. Found in Whiterun, she can be recruited to follow the player on their journeys in Skyrim. This was inspired by Joseph Russell’s Lucien Flavius mod.
Stats Level: 5+ (scales to player level, no level cap) Race: Imperial Essential: Yes
Veena’s Equipment Armor
Gold Necklace
Hide Armor
Weapons
Imperial Bow: she has an Imperial Bow that cannot be removed from her inventory. It has no stat changes other than it being weightless.
Iron Dagger: she also owns an iron dagger that cannot be removed from her inventory. Like her bow, it has no stat changes other than being weightless.
If these weapons do not appear in her inventory, don't fret! They're not considered "playable," therefore the player cannot see them. She'll use them just fine!

Features
Veena works like a vanilla companion, able to follow, trade, and do favors.
You can ask her to cast Candlelight in her dialogue options.
You can ask her to heal you in her dialogue options.
Veena will not equip certain items. It's not a bug that she won't equip a helmet, shoes, or gloves. If people do not like this, I will take this feature out.
Requirements Veena does not require SKSE or MCM. She also does not require any of the DLCs or Creation Kit items.
Installation Simply drag and drop the .esp and .bsa from the .zip into your Data folder.
Uninstallation Delete the .esp and .bsa.
Mod Interaction/ Compatibility To my knowledge, Veena shouldn't directly conflict with any mods. She should be compatible with anything. Correct me if I'm wrong, and I'll create a list of incompatibilities or attempt to fix it.
Theoretical FAQ Q: Where is Veena by default? A: Currently she outside Riverwood, close to the bridge.
Q: Why is Veena not in Riverwood? A: She has a specific schedule for sandboxing. Veena should be back in Riverwood around 23:00 if she is nowhere to be found.
Q: Can Veena be married? A: No. I’d have to learn how to do that. Maybe in the future, no promises.
Q: Is this mod going to be worked on? A: Yes. I work on my mods on my freetime.
Q: Will there be more mods? A: Probably. I have a couple more unvoiced followers that may be uploaded.
