I invite you to meet O'livia, the big, jolly vampire.

O'livia is a character preset I made this year as a test character. Basically put I went a bit mad and downloaded a bunch of mods last year just to have 'em, otherwise I'd forget. Earlier this year, I took a couple months to go through my mod list and tried to make a real attempt to get everything sussed out before I went into a formal play-through. I noticed I had several that affected things I would normally never get to use, namely vampire skills and npc's. So, I made a test character to be able to look at that stuff, but figured I might as well have a little fun and make her the opposite of my usual character. For example, my usual guy is a short, misplaced ranger; total do-gooder lamebrain. She is super tall, enjoys biting town guards, and throwing their corpses from cliffs just to see where they land. It's gotten to the point where I think I like playing as her over my usual characters. She's got a little evil streak in her, and is just alot more fun.

I didn't really have a concrete plan for her appearance, but as time went along while refining her design I got reminded of Xena, the old TV series from the 90's. So, I think there ended up being some Lucy Lawless in her. It's not meant to be a 1-to-1 match in face design, but I'm hoping she comes across as a bit of an homage to Xena. I wanted to keep her proportions realistic, but with a bit extra heft in the bicep and tricep area. I may refine these areas more in the future as I update her. I think I now feel happy enough with the results to feel comfortable posting her here, so I hope you like her.

There will be a Mortal Form for her as well, so no vampire stuff. Once I get that more refined, it'll be up here too.

BTW, please feel free to post your own images! This is my first mod ever, so I'm excited to post her here and excited to see what you guys do with this mod!

Mortal Form (Coming Soon)

Uh oh. O'livia has entered a goth phase, uh-oh. Skin tones are now very pale, using cool, bluish tones. She found black lipstick somewhere too...better not to ask where. Most of these are optional technically, but if you want her to look like she does in the photos, you will need these.

SKSE - Needed for RaceMenu. Caution! SKSE is Skyrim version specific, know which one you need before installing.
RaceMenu - HARD requirement

High Poly Head -  Highly recommended.
Female Vampires Have Fangs - She needs her chompers ya know.
Expressive Facegen Morphs - Hard requirement.
Expressive Facial Animations - Female - Hard Requirement as well.

Salt and Wind - KS Hairdo's texture replacer.

FULL EXPERIENCE
Optional stuff I use in my playthrough with her.

Dragonborn Voiceover - Way cool mod. Just...go...go check it out.
Ciri Voice Pack - In my game, O'livia uses this voice pack for DBVO. Only available from the mod author's discord.
PC Head Tracking/Ciri Voice Pack - Adds user triggered greetings. Highly recommended.

A note just in case the preset does not include proper body scale values (that slider has disappeared from racemenu for me, so I don't know if the body scale I set will be in there). As she is in pics her body scale is a value of 1.1. Long story short, I researched height value conversion ratios from Skyrim to Imperial measurements, and my conclusion is that a body scale height value of 1 in Skyrim is equal to 70". This means, as she is in pics, she would stand 77" tall, and taking into account the heeled boots she has, it probably takes her up to 79". Yeah...she could play basketball. So....if you want your O'livia to look like mine, set body scale to 1.1.

BTW, if you cant set the body scale in RaceMenu, for whatever reason...I mean, its Skyrim, anything happens for any reason, but if you cannot...there is a console command. Use "player.setscale X", X being the value.

HPH is a great mod that smooths out character appearances, but there is a known bug concerning eyelashes. Simply put, they wont attach to the eyelids, so they kinda just float there. This drove me nuts trying to find a fix, but it seems to just be a possible RaceMenu issue with certain eye mods. However, I found a fix. Go into RaceMenu, switch to the "Sculpt" tab, and select "clear sculpt". That fixed it for me, so if you have this issue too give it a try. Another note I wanted to mention is if you are wondering where to get HPH, it is only available now from VectorPlexus. There are also two versions of HPH, one adds a slider in RaceMenu allowing you to go between Vanilla and High Poly heads. The other gets rid of Vanilla altogether. I choose the latter, but just a reminder if you have the slider to switch it to engage HPH.
