📋 About This Mod
Let's cook with fire, baby.
03/22/2026 EDIT: check out my improved and better mod here Karlach's New Look Revamped
This mod gives a new look to Karlach. I tried to be as lore-friendly as possible like every other mod I've made, but this time I took some liberty into making this redesign, distancing myself a little bit from the canon appearence of Tieflings.
Karlach's equipment contains a pair of hellish boots, gloves, and a personalized Cambion armor. I thought it would've been interesting if Karlach had the same outfit as the other servants of Zariel, to also canonically give Wyll and the fake Paladins of Tyr another excuse to hunt her. As per the 2. 0 update she also has a new camp outfit and camp shoes.
In the starting inventory she has a Bloody Greataxe.
For her appearence, now Karlach has a more fiend-ish look, with black sclera and also blue eyes.
Her skin is gray-ish and now she has a short haircut with blue hair and black highlights; also she has some new piercings and a burnt scar on her face. This was made to make her skin more damaged due to the ten years she had to pass in Avernus. She also has freckles on her face to make her appear less intimidating and give an hint regarding her cheerful and kind nature.
She still retains her original horns since Wyll recognises her as the "one horned devil"
All her icons were also updated to reflect the changes.
Her outfit also comes with a personalized new description and name.
Also, Karlach will lack earrings and piercings after you recruit her and if you play her as Origin. This is a game issue and not of the mod itself.
KNOWN ISSUES:
1) Karlach's eyes may change during romance scenes and the Prologue's party
2) If you cut Karlach's head off, the head it's the vanilla one and not the redesigned one.
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, altough it is advisable to start a new save file if you want to install it, since Karlach will appear with the new look but there's a chance she won't have her new custom clothes and weapon.
