📋 About This Mod

Because I'm using kavt, I cannot edit Gale like I liked before. That is why I made this mod and since I was redoing his appearance anyway, I added him custom outfits (work only for bt2, because I had enough headache making them work, so won't adapt them for other types) with custom description. He also has a custom staff now

I tried to make him look more affected by orb. Skin paler, veins more noticeable (and purple, since I headcanon orb also affected his blood), the whole look more feverish. I also took inspirations from his early access keyarts, so he has bandages on his hands (in perfect world he would have them on only left hand, but my skills are still limited). I use Wizardly Updo, without it his hairstyle will be vanilla

WARNING - his eye doesn't glow in CC screen. I couldn't fix it, but since everything else works nicely and even in game itself too, I decided to leave it be until I'll find a way to change that. This mod is also incompatible with Gale's Glowing Orb (and beating version too), and, obviously, any other mod that changes his appearance. Equipment mods should work perfectly fine

Many thanks and gratitudes to Khloii1 for helping me, this mod wouldn't exist without her. Check out her visual mods, they're cool!

This mod was made with official toolkit. Since it adds equipment, it's not safe to unistall mid-playthrough, use Mod Uninstaller first!
