📋 About This Mod

After messing with a lot of mods for a long time I decided to try something simpler regarding hairstyles. Well, if it's the right word.  This mod slightly changes Leliana's hair and face texture. Her hair is now a bit longer and gives her more dramatic look. As for the face texture, I just decided to change her makeup and gave her more saturated dark-gray eyeshadows instead of yellow ones. Also lightened her lips a bit and changed her eyebrows.

Note: I haven't made Halamshiral version of this hairstyle yet, so Leliana will appear with her default hair during Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts. I will fix it as soon as I can.Added 1 version of Halamshiral hairstyle. Might create some other versions as well.
