II. Description:

Blood Diversity provides new blood types for the creatures of Morrowind, Tribunal, Bloodmoon, the Official Plugins, and a variety of mods based on real-world and lore considerations. Following are the default blood types included and my justifications for each, but these can all be configured via the MCM:

0 - Red Blood:

Default blood type for humanoids, mammals, and anything else that didn't warrant a change.

Utilized for Skeletal Creatures, Ash Creatures, and optionally Vampires in consideration of vanilla settings, ashen natures, and the 'vampire dust' item respectively.

2 - Sparks:

Utilized for Dwemer constructs, Fabricants, and the Imperfect in consideration of vanilla settings and to reflect their machine natures.

Utilized for organic variants of Daedra in consideration of 'The Infernal City' novel's mention of Winged Twilight ichor, in addition to how fitting it is with the mythological concept.

4 - Ectoplasm:

Utilized for Ghosts and Ghost NPCs to reflect the 'Ectoplasm' item dropped from many of them.

5 - Blue Blood:

Utilized for Crustaceans, Netch, and far-northerly creatures like Rieklings and Grahl in consideration of real-world hues of blood as well as jelly in the case of the Netch.

6 - Orange-Hued Hemolymph:

Utilized for Insectoid and Kwama creatures in consideration of real-world hues.

7 - Elemental Energy:

Utilized for creatures composed of or containing a great deal of magickal energy within them such as Atronachs, Spriggans, Hircine, and Dagoth Ur.

III. Compatibility:

This mod IS NOT compatible with OpenMW, at least until support for MWSE mods or a similar feature that allows for this kind of scripting. Otherwise it should be compatible with any other mod, though it will overwrite any blood types introduced.

If you wish to utilize your own blood replacer, simply replace the correct file in the textures\Anu\Blood directory.

IV. Mod Coverage:

If you are the author of a mod I've covered and DON'T want any changes to blood applied to your mod, simply let me know and I'll remove them.

If you are a mod author who DOES want blood changes applied to your mod's creatures, merely make a request in the designated
