📋 About This Mod

EDIT 24-Feb-2018: I have completely redone this mod. It is no longer a tattoo using multiple channels, but legitimate face textures using the tranquil mark from DA:I. If you have the old version, make sure you remove it before installing this one.

It's interesting that they mention the fact that tranquil are branded in DAO, but just didn't display it. So it's not like it was something they added later on.

The only other mod I've seen that does this as well ends up looking more like a tattoo than an actual brand mark, so I decided to do my best on changing that.

INSTALLATION

Extract from the .zip file and add the folder to your Documents\BioWare\DragonAge\packages\core\override.

To uninstall, simply remove the folder.

This mod is NOT compatible with any other mods that make changes to the following files:

  • []bhm200cr_m_e_tranquil.utc

    []ef_bhm200_f_e_tranquil.mor

    []em_bhm200_m_e_tranquil.mor

    []hf_bhm200_f_h_tranquil.mor

    []hm_bhm200_m_h_tranquil.mor

    []hm_bhm200_owain.mor

    []hm_cir220_sac_tran.mor

    []hm_den230_proprietor.mor

    []hm_lite_camp_tranquil.mor

    []hm_pre100_gentle.mor

To make it compatible, delete any of the above already existing in your override before adding this to it.

You may be wondering why there's a UTC file... It's because for some reason while BioWare labelled the NPC as an elf, they (I assume accidentally) gave the character a human body. So I corrected this in order for the morph to work.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community favorite (1,202 endorsements) — clearly fills a niche for lore buffs
  • Lightweight and easy to install — just drop-in and go
  • Makes Tranquils match the later game's look, which is a nice touch for continuity

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2018 — might not be compatible with the latest game patches or DLC
  • Only affects the brand design — if you wanted more Tranquil customization, this isn't it
  • No screenshots or detailed install notes in the description, so you're flying blind until you try it
🎯 Is This For You?
For Dragon Age: Inquisition players who care about lore consistency and want Tranquil NPCs to match the brand design from later games. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes or more extensive NPC overhauls — this is purely cosmetic.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure to place the files in the correct override folder (usually Documents/BioWare/Dragon Age Inquisition/Override) to avoid conflicts.
  • If you're using Frosty Mod Manager, you can import the mod there for easier management and to avoid overwriting other mods.
  • Check the mod's comments section for any reported issues with the latest patch before installing.
