Skull Face (Parasite XOF Commander) with Mare's Leg

"The chain of retaliation is what will truly bind this world together as one." - Skull Face misinterpreting The Boss's will.

Description:

Sans Lingua Franca -- the Phantom Snake finally slithers out from Big Boss's shadow. No longer content with subverting Cipher from the inside, Skull Face takes command of the bloodied and beaten Outer Heaven to bring Hell on Earth. A dead man forced to live by vocal cord parasite; there can be no symbiosis with hatred, nor peace from war. Bold faced vengeance necessitates mastery over the Skull strain of the vocal cord parasite, and with this mastery comes the capacity the rid the world of Zero.

It is no secret that Skull Face, as Metal Gear villains go, was underutilized to an extent. He entered the scene in a big way in Ground Zeroes; taking the franchise in a much darker direction than Metal Gear typically went, for better or worse. He then went through a complete 180 in Phantom Pain, becoming an absolute goofball with a band of weird and disparate antagonists. With insanely quotable lines and a hammy vocal performance from James Horan, he made a big impact with the limited screen time he had in MGSV. Whether this limited screen time was due to: Phantom Pain being unfinished (an unfair claim when you look at how polished and feature complete MGSV is), an unfocused and messy story from Kojima and the writers (Kojima's a stronger game directer than writer), or perhaps it was a deliberate choice to deny the player a satisfying MGS-style boss encounter as well as conventional revenge. It is interesting to note that there are cut voice lines in the game files implying that there was some plan early on to make Skull Face a more conventional Metal Gear boss. Whatever the case may be it is clear that Skull Face has inconsistent characterization as well as utilization: a lesson Kojima has thankfully learned with Higgs in Death Stranding.

Well then, a modded protagonist will just have to do. This mod includes all the features and customization you've come to expect: working FPV thanks to CapLagRobin's original work, dynamic blood textures, your choice of headgear (hat & mask, no mask, no hat, no headgear), your choice of outfit to replace (Sneaking Suit for those without DLC, Naked Snake Sneaking Fatigues for two versions of this mod, the Parasite Suit for skull powers , and the classic Tuxedo look (for dark camouflage). In addition, Skull Face now comes with his iconic Lever-Action Mare's Leg holstered on his leg to complete to look (with an optional file to replace Snake's main gun in cutscenes with the Mare's Leg), and working facial animations due to not being tied to the PS1 Solid Snake model.

For DD Males, you need to equip one of the balaclavas in order to load Skull Face's head and be care
