📋 About This Mod
''This guidebook is the next in my ongoing tour of the Realms—I assure thee all, gentles, that you'll find no more diligent guide than your humble servant, Volothamp Geddarm. These last few seasons I've trudged, ridden, swum, sailed, and even flown from the icy wastes north of the Spine of the World to the hot, steaming jungles of the Shining South—and beyond—all in thy service, gentle traveler.''
— Excerpt from Volo's introduction to Volo's Guide to the Sword Coast
This mod was made to give Volo a more dapper, sophisticated and refined look as one of Faérun's greatest icons. A well-known travelling scholar and writer, Volo exudes pure elegance and grace wherever he goes.
Volo's portrait has also been edited to reflect his new appearance!
As always, thank you so much for enjoying the mods, 90K downloads and i still can't believe it :D
