📋 About This Mod
⸢ It’s not you. It’s me. You see, I have standards. ⸥
About
This mod is the Companions version of ABSolutely.
No old shaders required; this works straight out of the box. Can be safely added or removed mid-playthrough.
Minthara also has white hair and eyebrows as well as no baked-in grime and blood.
Thanks to the wonderful Astralities allowing me the use of their subtle gradient body textures, Astarion, Gale and Shadowheart are available as a gradient version.
Similarly, Lae'zel also has a smooth variant with more defined ridges, courtesy of the amazing Aimryax and Margerard.
Installation
Requires Adytum Nzx
Currently available as an AIO and as separate files for each companion, (a pak version is avalaible for those who might prefer).
Simply drop the .pak(s) in your Mods folder or into your mod manager of choice. Make sure it is in the active tab (or equivalent for non BG3MM users).
Loard order shouldn't matter.
Minthara is already included in ABSolutely, so only download her file if you either want her hair and eyerbows colour changes,
or if you downloaded the normie female softer version and wants more definition for her.
The same applies to Lae'zel. She's included in the githyanki females mod(s) so only get her if you want different textures for them or only want Lae'zel to be affected by the changes.
Compatibility
The mod edits the base game material for each currently supported companion. Those are then associated with the virtual textures from Adytum.
For Lae'zel and Minthara, specifically, their character visuals are also modified.
As such, any mod altering the same files will overwrite it. Simply ensure the mod is being loaded after those.
Only the mod loaded last will have its effects take place, however.

ABSolutely Companions expands the ABSolutely mod by adding defined abs and physiques to every companion in the game. It offers STAV loose files for users who prefer that format. This is a cosmetic enhancement for players who want their companions to have more muscular appearances.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Popular with over 172,000 downloads, so it's clearly got a following
- Gives all companions a consistent, defined look that matches the ABSolutely aesthetic
- STAV loose files included for those who prefer that setup
⚠️ Cons
- Only 185 endorsements compared to downloads, which might mean it's not as beloved as the download count suggests
- Requires the base ABSolutely mod, so it's not standalone
- Last updated in July 2026, but no info on compatibility with the latest game version
For players who already use ABSolutely and want their companions to match the same muscular physique. If you're into visual consistency for your party, this is a quick add-on. Skip if you don't use ABSolutely or prefer vanilla companion bodies.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the base ABSolutely mod installed first, or this won't work.
- If you're using a mod manager, just drop the files in; if not, manually place them in your game's data folder.
- Check the mod page for any load order notes, but since it's a texture/body mod, it usually doesn't matter much.
