📋 About This Mod
I wasn’t able to find anything like this already made, so I made my own. Replaces the hideous tier 2 Elven Cowl, moves it to the top of the list so it’s easy to find, and does not affect the appearance of NPCs wearing the same. Being a schematic, it also doesn't have any level restrictions. I made it maybe a little overpowered so I didn’t have to mess around with making new helmets all the time, and changed one of the material slots to metal since cloth can be a little hard to come by in early game. Works great with retexture mods (as pictured).
As you can see, the schematic will stay named Elven Cowl if you already have it in a save - the name is baked in - but it should display correctly in a save that has yet to acquire the schematic. The schematic icon will always display properly.
If you remove this mod, any Ardent Blossom helms crafted with it will revert into Elven Cowls, and that would be terrible.

Special thanks to tirnoney for their tutorial on how to make schematics, without which I would have never figured out how to do this.
