Bladesong Garment

Description

This mod adds a set of clothes (hat, gloves, torso & boots) as well as a weapon (rapier). All pieces come separately, supplied with enchantments tuned to synergise with the intended character archetype. In addition, there are two 'vanity' (or camp) variants, combining all pieces either with or without the beret. Texture sizes are 4k and 2k for larger (torso, upper & lower) and smaller (beret, hands, boots, rapier) pieces, respectively. Perhaps a little over the top, but barring the incoming photo-mode no zooming-in or cutscene will get you close enough for things to even remotely approach low-res!

The headwear comes in two distinct variants: a 'small' variant (which deforms and crops hair much like headwear would in the base game) and a 'large' variant which will preserve the original hairstyle. In case of the latter, do be warned that it's virtually impossible to account for every hairstyle currently available and as such may produce notable clipping issues. It has been matched to some of my personally favourite hairstyles, with anything leaning too heavily towards the bangs or ponytail end of things leading to undesirable results. Regardless, each variant is identical in every other signifcant way.

The clothes provided in this mod are intended to fit a female (slim) body archetype (pertaining humans, elves, half-elves and tieflings). There is currently no support for any race not within this list, or males and 'strong' body types in any shape or form. Should significant demand arise to provide support for these outliers, I would gladly consider including them in a later version.

Dye

As of update 1. 1. 0 (30-12-2023), an optional file has been included - identical to the main file in all aspects except for the entire set being dyable. Due to technical reasons, the graphical fidelity (particularly of hue gradients in the base colour textures) will be somewhat lower. I strongly prefer my original, undyable version, but I'll leave the details of this trade-off to you!

Acquisition

All items can be acquired from the tutorial chest on the Nautiloid in the room shortly after passing Shadowheart's pod, or can be purchased from Arron in the Emerald Grove in Act I. In case you have progressed well beyond this point, consider using the Tutorial Chest Summoning mod to manually spawn them in.
