📋 About This Mod
I managed to use traces of code left in the game to reconstruct a working Dragonborn option for the Guardian.
I am well aware the lip animations are weird and it looks like they're growling or not opening their mouths. I have not found a fix for this just yet.
Video of it action here (Click me, Google Drive video link).
But, for now, enjoy Dragonborn as Guardians!
PS: I made the White Dragonborn male the same look as the Dark Urge by default. As a treat. Enjoy Toarie!
Big credits to Kaz for figuring out how to get custom Guardian races to work in the first place. I merely built on what he found.
