📋 About This Mod

Notes: Orana is another NPC whose face is distracting, but there have been a number of good mods made for her already, so I elected to skip her. If you have any requests for more NPC face distraction removals, post a comment.

Changelog:     V2: Added Wesley, Cavril, Bartender's Friend, and Desperate Refugee

To Install: Unzip. Choose the files corresponding to the NPC faces you want to change (see below) and put them into your Override folder.     They are all independent of each other and so pick and choose which ones you want! Check the screenshots to see the before and after.     I suggest possibly making a new folder within the Override folder if you want to be more organized.

To Uninstall: Remove the files from the Override folder. See below for filenames.

ef_qun_crazed_warrior.mor = The unnamed elf fanatic in Blackpowder Courtesy who is upset that her fellow elves are joining the Qun.     The weird veins and dirt she has on her face have been removed.

hf_desp_refugee.mor = The refugee the merchant Cavril was ripping off in the prologue. She is given more of a refugee's hair cut but also     a better, far less distracting complexion.

hf_grace.mor = The mage Grace who was running away from the templars in Act of Mercy and is revealed to have become a blood mage     in Best Served Cold. Her face tattoo has been removed.

hf_taranah.mor = The insane blood mage named Tarohne in Enemies Among Us who wants to sow chaos within the Templar ranks.     The over the top veins, tattoo and cosmetics on her face have been removed.

hm_bartend_friend.mor = The man leaning on the bar in the Hanged Man. The black eye he has for apparently no reason has been removed.

hm_cavril.mor = The merchant cheating refugees in the Gallows in the prologue. He has been given better proportions and also made to look     less old.

hm_raider_1.mor = One of the unnamed Ferelden deserters demanding entrance to Kirkwall in the prologue. The weird darkspawn taint     like veins he has for apparently no reason have been removed.

hm_wright.mor = The guardsman named Wright you meet when first arriving at Kirkwall who says there are no more room for refugees.     The weird veins he has on his face for apparently no reason have been removed.

wesley_face_morph.erf = Gives Wesley a less boyish haircut, and gives him darker eyebrows.
