1. INFORMATION ON THE MOD
******************************************************************
First off I made this mod for myself, but seeing that there are very few companion mods that do what mine does, I thought I would share for others to enjoy.
This mod will NOT conflict with any other CM partners mod out there and doesn't change anything relating to the CM Code except the dead body follow fix.
What I have done in this mod is to adds around 650+ Unique CM Partner NPC companions all around Tamriel.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Massive content drop – 650+ NPCs is a huge boost to world population
- Non-essential NPCs add stakes – your companions can actually die in combat
- Community-tested with 155 endorsements and 7,329 downloads
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated March 2025 – may not be compatible with the latest game patches
- No mention of compatibility with other mods or DLC – potential conflicts
For Oblivion players who want a livelier Tamriel and enjoy recruiting diverse companions. Perfect for adventurers who like having a rotating cast of followers and don't mind them being mortal. Skip if you prefer essential, story-driven companions or if you're on a low-end PC – 650 extra NPCs could strain performance.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since NPCs are non-essential, save often before big battles – you don't want to lose a favorite companion permanently.
- If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file placement to avoid overwriting other mods.
- Check your load order – place this mod after other companion mods to avoid conflicts.
