📋 About This Mod
Characters will now stand with their head still. They will continue to blink as normal, and their mouth should still move as expected when listening to their voice options.
There are 2 options for the pose the characters can use in character customization, see the FAQ or the video for a comparison.

Q1: Will this work in the mirror of transformation at the black emporium?
A1: Yes, but the natural version will use the stock-still pose at the black emporium.
Q2: Will this mod work when first creating my character?
Q3: Will this work on both the inquisitor and Hawke?
Q4: What do the DAIMM and frosty in the file names mean?
A4: DAIMM = version of the mod for people using dai mod manager. Frosty = version of the mod
for people using frosty mod manager.
Q5: Do I need to use both the DAIMM and frosty versions of the mod at once?
A5: No, there's no reason to do that.
Q6: What is the difference between the stock-still version and the natural version?
A6: You can see the video if you need a comparison. But if you want a written explanation...
Stock-still version: characters stand in A-pose in all instances of character customization (stood very still with arms pointing diagonally downwards.) Not a very natural-looking pose but you shouldn't notice the arms too much anyways unless you're zoomed out, presumably you're going to spend most time customizing your character zoomed in on their face anyways.
Natural version: characters stand rather still but may move ever so slightly, not distractingly so. their arms are by their side during character creation of the inquisitor, and customization of Hawke, but not in the mirror of transformation at the black emporium, there they will use the less-natural looking A-pose instead, since the natural pose didn't want to load there.
Q7: Do I need to use both the stock-still version and natural version at the same time?
A7: No, don't do that, just pick one or the other.
Q8: Will this work on different genders and races?
A8: Yes.
Q9: Characters are doing the A-pose outside of character customization. Is this mod the cause?
A9: No, this mod only edits the character customization pose. If you see the A-pose elsewhere, it is only a coincidence - the pose the mod uses is just the generic pose chara
