📋 About This Mod
Farewell. If we will meet again... well, then we will have met again.
Who does this mod change? All the (alive) Deep Gnomes in Act 1, 2 and 3, Barcus and Wulbren included.
Not much to say, just wanted to give some diversity to this often overlooked group of little ones. This mod gives more diversity to the clan, to reflect their mastery on explosives and determination to win against their oppressors. As always, this mod changes outfits, adds scars, changes skin colors and eyes etc.
Both Wulbren and Barcus have outfits that reflect their leadership: one is the destructive aggressive leader, the other one is a diplomatic leader.
I personally love Barcus and I think not being able to romance him was a WASTE! Also I like Wulbren as a villain, I think he's very interesting.
Some characters change outfits between Act 1/2 to 3 as you can see in the screenshots. Same happens in the vanilla game.
Philomeen also changes haircut between Act 1 and 3 because I love her.
One of the Gnomes in Act 3 is also an Iron Fist. I think it's interesting that a Deep Gnome can be undercover for Wulbren's cause.
This mod was done with the official Baldur's Gate 3 Toolkit Moonglasses, and it was made to work for Patch 8. I have tested it and it's safe to install/uninstall mid playthrough.

- If you're using a mod manager like Fluffy Mod Manager, enable the mod and check in-game if the new uniforms appear on Ironhand Gnomes.
