📋 About This Mod

Draconic Dyes

Features

This mod adds 23 dyes based on the 10 draconic bloodlines available in-game and their progenitors, as well as other dragons not available in-game as bloodlines.

I referenced depictions of each dragon from DnD materials to build the color palettes, so each dye should match the general look of their respective dragon. The dyes lean towards bold, vibrant colors, in hopes of capturing even a little of the resplendence of a dragon. Of course, one does not need to be descended from a dragon to use a dragon's dye. All Tavs, Durges, and companions (draconic or otherwise) can enjoy!

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's a simple mod, just drop the files into your Data folder or use a mod manager—either works.
  • Check the in-game crafting menu for the dyes; they might be under a specific category like 'Dyes' or 'Miscellaneous.'
  • If you're using other dye mods, load order shouldn't matter much, but keep this one active to see the new colors.
