📋 About This Mod
Quick and dirty. But it gets the job done.
Hoping someone will improve on the idea, adding wrinkles, laugh lines, and just more character to the facial textures overall.
- Notes-
- You can't change the color.
- You CAN make it darker or lighter by changing the already built-in facial hair options in the character creation screen. But it will always be more or less brown.
- This overrides every male NPC that uses the default male facial texture. This cannot be helped. For some, it is an improvement. The Crestfallen Knight looks pretty cool. But Petrus... Just when I thought he couldn't get creepier...

📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Adds a rough, rugged beard to every male NPC without manual edits.
- Community-approved: 736 endorsements and 18,280 downloads back up the look.
- Simple texture override that won't touch gameplay or scripts.
⚠️ Cons
- Overrides all male face textures, so it will conflict with other face texture mods.
- Texture dates from 2012 and may look dated or low-res next to modern replacers.
- Applies the same beard to every male NPC, removing visual variety in facial hair.
🎯 Is This For You?
For players who want a uniform rugged look across all male NPCs without tweaking individual characters. For those running a vanilla-plus setup that values atmosphere over individual customization. Skip if you already use face texture replacers or want different beard styles per NPC.
