📋 About This Mod
Initially, I just wanted the fem Elf head 1 for my character Shel. And I have other, original mods I want to work on. But I figured "well, why not just enable all the elf heads for Aasimar?". And then it has just snowballed from there.
It's a simple mod that just enables the vanilla Elf, Half-Elf, Human and Tiefling heads as options for Whispers of the Divine - Aasimar Race. All four body types!
I didn't touch the meshes at all so there is a neck seam, but it is very subtle (in my opinion).
You can have both the regular AND EotB versions active at the same time. In case you want both options available at the same time.
As of version 1. 2. 0, the EotB version is also compatible with Unique Tav through WotD. If you have EotB but not Unique Tav, it should just use the regular makeup.
As of v1. 2. 0, VFX for the EotB heads (for example, the glowing eyes when casting "Speak with the Dead") should work on it's own, but you will still need Padme's "Patches_for_VFX_Heads" file from their Patches for CC Mods page if you have multiple head mods with VFX active.
03/31/2024: Astralities' Glow Eyes now supports this mod! It is compatible with either Vanilla Heads file :3
Installation
Download it, unzip, and install with your choice for mod manager (I use BG3MM). Load after (below) Whispers of the Divine: Aasimar (Race).
Info for manual installation can be found in the Manual Installation Info article (or in the info.json that comes with each pak, take your pick).
Example from my load order (as of 11/18/2023):
Uninstallation
Same as you would any other pak mod (remove from active load order/delete the pak file).
If you load a save file where you used one of these heads but this mod is not in the active load order, it should simply give your character one of the default Aasimar heads.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: 523 endorsements and 167k+ downloads show it's a go-to for Aasimar players.
- Simple, focused purpose: gives you more head options without changing anything else.
- Works for every body type, so no matter your character build, you're covered.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires the 'Whispers of the Divine' mod, so it's useless if you don't run that race mod.
- Last updated in April 2024; if the game or base mod has changed since, compatibility could be an issue.
For Baldur's Gate 3 players who use the 'Whispers of the Divine' Aasimar race and want more head variety without hunting for custom heads. Skip if you don't use that race mod or prefer entirely new head models over vanilla options.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or BG3 Mod Manager to install—it'll handle file placement automatically.
- Make sure you have 'Whispers of the Divine' installed first, or this mod won't have anything to work with.
- If you're on PC, double-check that your game version matches the mod's last update (April 2024) to avoid conflicts.
