Forest Friends - Playable Firbolgs

EDIT 17-APR-2025: My remake of this mod is finally done! It should now be far less buggy, and is compatible with patch 8!

The one unfortunate thing is, piercings will no longer be aligned to the custom heads - this is because I found out custom skeletons were causing the weird eye glitches, and the only way I could fix it was to use vanilla skeletons, at least for the time being. Still, I hope you enjoy!

Firbolg tribes cloister in remote forest strongholds, preferring to spend their days in quiet harmony with the woods. When provoked, firbolgs demonstrate formidable skills with weapons and druidic magic.

I'd love to see your characters, by the way, so please share your screenshots!
