📋 About This Mod
Hi! I wanted to be able to change my Gith spots so using Unique Tav I have created a face tattoo file that allows it. It replaces the first 16 tattoos so if you want to use any of those tattoos on your Gith you'll need to edit the tattoo file outside of BG3. I'll leave a small tutorial in the comments for how to easily edit DDS channels in GIMP if needed.
These spots are taken from the default files and just swapped from the green makeup channel to the red tattoo channel, essentially.
To install just drop the Generated folder in your Data folder as you would any Unique Tav customisation! :D
To hide the default Gith spots I actually recommend installing the Satyr race mod. Bit bizarre, but as the Satyr race adds new options to the scar menu (technically replacing Gith spots) there is an option to hide them. Using that you can hide your default spots and use this addon to get a custom one!
I have not tested what happens without the Satyr race mod but I assume it just means you'll still have the default spots on top of the custom ones.
This Baldur's Gate 3 cosmetic mod replaces the first 16 tattoo options with selectable Githyanki spots for custom characters. It's a niche visual tweak for players who want their Tav to look more Gith-like. With 48 endorsements and 8,259 downloads, it's a small but appreciated addition.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Tiny download and install—just drop in and go.
- Adds a unique look for Githyanki roleplay without needing a full overhaul.
- Decent download count (8,259) shows some players are using it.
⚠️ Cons
- Only 48 endorsements—small community, so support is limited.
- Requires Unique Tav mod to work, which is an extra dependency.
- Last updated in December 2023—may not be compatible with future patches.
For Baldur's Gate 3 players who want their custom character to have authentic Githyanki spots without using the default face options. If you're already using Unique Tav and want more visual variety, this is a quick add. Skip if you're not into cosmetic tweaks or don't use Unique Tav.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have Unique Tav installed first, as this mod replaces its tattoo slots.
- In-game, go to the tattoo section and select one of the first 16 options to see the Gith spots.
- If spots don't appear, double-check that both mods are active and load order is correct.
