📋 About This Mod
Introduction
There are many good companions headmorph out there,
but I have yet too see a complete companion overhaul with Ellise amazing textures !
So when I finally got the toolset to work the other day, i just had to try it myself O:
I have tried to keep them all as lore friendly as possible, but a few main changes from vanilla include;
- Freckles for Leliana, Alistair and Orgren
- Brown skin tone for Morrigan and slight face change to show her Chasind ancestry
- Brown skin tone and beard for Sten, looking more like his trailer self
- Wynne looks younger, after all she's only 48
- Zevran with elf update to look more like DA2 elves
