📋 About This Mod

Adds new heads inspired by Shadar-Kai for Human, Half-Elf and Elf/Drow - 3 each (+variants) for Body 1, 2, 3 & 4.

I was mourning the fact that the campaign where I'm playing a warlock of the Raven Queen will soon come to an end and decided I to make some Shadar-kai inspired presets to help me with this terrible grief. None of these actually look like my warlock because he's... a Drow.... ......... .

I included Human, Half-Elf and Elf/Drow variants because Shadar-kai lore is a mess and they weren't even always elves. All come with a version without scars or other modifications.

If you end up making a character with one of them, I'd love to see them!!!

🤍  Available:

  • []Her That Takes (+2 Variants) - Body 1 & 3 Human, Half-Elf and Elf/Drow[/]

    []Glistering Grief (+1 Variant)  - Body 1 & 3 Human, Half-Elf and Elf/Drow[/]

    []Rise By Sin (+2 Variants)   - Body 1 & 3 Human, Half-Elf and Elf/Drow[/]

    []Him That Gives (+2 Variants)  - Body 2 & 4  Human, Half-Elf and Elf/Drow[/]

    []Golden Sorrow (+2 Variants)  - Body 2 & 4 Human, Half-Elf and Elf/Drow[/]

    []Virtue By Fall (+2 Variants)  - Body 2, 3 & 4  Human, Half-Elf and Elf/Drow[/]

I will not be converting these heads to any other races.

🤍 Things of Note:

  • []Golden Sorrow's glow crackle color can be changed with certain modded eye colors, like astralities's Demon Eyes.[/]

    []The stitches that respond to eye color change based on the glow color of the preset you use. If there's no glow, they will be black.[/]

    []The stitches that respond to horn color will require a mod like Half-Tiefs (Tiefling Horns and Tail for All) to be able to actually change the color. By default they will be grey.[/]

    []Spell VFX should work, but will overwrite or be overwritten by other mods using the same fix.[/]

    []For every complaint about the ears, they will be a little longer on the next heads I make.[/]

    []As a Short Drow Truther, I have to fight with myself every time I add Drow presets to Body 3&4.

    Install with BG3 Mod Manager.

    Make sure “Animation LOD Detail” is set to “High”.
