📋 About This Mod

A set of 40 animal themed body tattoos requested by users. Compatible with UTAV, KAVT, KAVT NVP and Rogue Tattoo.

Update 08/08/2026 - Added STAV files

It's been a weird couple of months for me in terms of mods. I've made a class mod, a pose mod and 3 tattoo sets. Not sure where all the drive is coming from. I think I just had a really bad spring and subconsciously wanted to override it somehow.

Either way, this set was created in collaboration with my discord members, they gave me suggestions of their favourite animals and where they would like them and I threw together this set. I want to thank them again for their input on these because they're not something I would have put together myself.

Let me know if you use them and what you think. There's 40 in total

This version of the mod contains 40 folders, one for each of the tattoos. This is for those of you that only ever use one tattoo at a time.

Typically with Unique Tav only one Body Tattoo is visible/can be installed at a time. This is usually the first tattoo in the Red Channel of the DDS file.

From the "Separated" ZIP you can choose the individual tattoo you would like and drop it into your Data folder.

For the separated versions, download the file, unzip the file, choose the folder of the tattoo number you want  and drop the "Generated" folder into your "Data" folder which should look something like this:  (disk:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Baldurs Gate 3\Data)



This version contains all 40 tattoos on one DDS. Unique Tav, KAVT NVP or KAVT is needed in order to use the file as it goes in the body tattoo folder of UTAV.

In order to view all 40 you will need to use either Magic Mirror Menu (MMM) or CCEE by rakor. I don't currently know of other mods that show tattoos on all three rgb channels. Tattoos 1-20 are on the Red Channel. Tattoos 21-40 are on the Green Channel.

The tattoos in this files are slightly out of order compared to the other files and the attached pictures. This is because when body tattoos overlap on the channels it can cause them to become pixelated and blurry sometimes so to avoid that I shuffled them around a little but they're all there.

These will work with with Kaz's CC tattoo selector however the colours will be off and you'll see more than one tattoo at a time so I wouldn't recommend this version when using the selector.

If you're using one of the merged versions, extract the Zip and drop the "Generated" folder into your "Data" folder which should look something like this:

(disk:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Baldurs Gate 3\Data)

These tattoos are compatible with UTAV, KAVT, KAVT NVP and Rogue Tattoo (when used with utav or one of it's equiv
