📋 About This Mod

Version 1. 5 by ChiZ
========================= Details =========================
This mod adds two custom sets of light armor to the game. One restricted to Leliana, and the other usable by anyone of any race or gender. When I started this mod, it was only going to be an armor set for Leliana. Something Chantry themed, with a unique \"profile\" like Morrigan\'s robe, to make her stand out a bit more than the standard leather armors will allow. In the end, I made a separate set in blue and steel for the player, or any other companion to wear. Because I put so much work into it, I figured I might as well spread it around a bit. The set does not include a helmet. If you want to wear a helmet, I highly recommend the No Helmet Hack (http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=202). Alternately, you can use the retinted helmet from the Helmets without wings and retints found here: http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1064 I\'d love to see screenshots of the armors on your characters, so be sure to upload them in the user images section! If there are any problems with the mod, or any suggestions for changes, please let me know either through the comments, or message me through the Nexus.
========================= Where is the set?! =========================
You can find the two sets inside The Gauntlet in a chest. If you already did the Sacred Ashes quest, you can go back there and retrieve it.
========================= Version History =========================
1. 5 - Changed the Note to Plot Item, added additional support for German language, and made the scripts compatible with Awakening. NOTE: The armor\'s unique material is not fully compatible with Awakening, and its name will not show up correctly though its statistics will remain the same. 1. 4 - Added scripts useable from the console to give the player the armor, and added support German language. 1. 3 - Added support for all race/gender meshes for the Devout set, and increased the resoultion of the mod icon. 1. 2 - Added a custom material called Orlesian Drakeskin (Special) for the armor sets that lowers the strength requirement significantly without causing conflict with other mods. 1. 1 - Fixed an error in the Readme. 1. 0 - Initial release.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Place the mod files in your Dragon Age: Origins 'override' folder (Documents/BioWare/Dragon Age/packages/core/override) to ensure they load automatically.
  • If you're using a mod manager like DAO Modmanager, you can install it there, but manual placement works fine for this simple mod.
  • Check the in-game inventory or Leliana's equipment screen to find the new armor — it may not appear in shops.
