📋 About This Mod

Version: 1. 0 Date: 19/10/2010 Category: Races, Classes and Birthsigns Requirements: Oblivion patch 1. 2. 0416, HG EyeCandy Body or Comapitble Replacer, Robert\'s Male Body Replacer V4 or later and KyneTarse\'s Custom Race Fix. Description ----------- Adds a new race to Oblivion called the Nephilim. Details ------- \"The Nephilim are a race of fallen angels once tasked to live and serve amongst the Gods. Sadly what were created as perfect beings grew imperfect over the millennia of their existence and were cast from the heavens. Scattered across the farthest reaches of Tamriel they live surrounded by the people that flock to them and their enigmatic nature, but remain completely alone, only able to hear the song of their brethren carried on the ether. In spite of being cast out of the heavens the Nephilim are still tasked to do the bidding of the Gods, even in the mortal realm.\" The Nephilim are an original race for Oblivion. I\'ve spent many hours working on very customised textures in the hopes of giving you the best race making experience possible. Things included in this race mod are: -Over 150 hairstyles unlocked for both genders, so you can make your ladies as manly or your men as womanly as you please. -70 different completely original eye textures. -Male race with heavily customised medium/high resolution (2048x2048) body/face textures and high resolution (4096x4096/2048x2048) body/face normal maps created from scratch. -Female race with heavily customised high resolution (4096x4096/2048x2048) body/face textures and high resolution (4096x4096) body/face normal maps, created from scratch. Optional parts for this race are: -30 extra \"electric eyes\" with super high-resolution 2048x2048 textures, NOT recommended for lower end machines. -An improved texture for Ren\'s hair and meshes using the Renhair1 texture. The texture does however have some flaws. It improved the look of a number of hairs but ruins other. Only recommended for those who wish to experiment. As Fallen Angels the Nephilim are naturally charismatic and strong but, having been cast from their place in the heavens, they often lack the will to go on. Male Base attributes: Strength: 45 Intelligence: 40 Willpower: 30 Agility: 35 Speed: 40 Enudurance: 45 Luck: 40 Personality: 45 --------------- Total: 320 (Vanilla) Female Base attributes: Strength: 40 Intelligence: 45 Willpower: 30 Agility: 35 Speed: 40 Endurance: 45 Luck: 40 Personality: 45 --------------- Total: 320 (Vanilla) Skill Bonuses: Light Armor +5, Alchemy +5, Mysticism +5, Blade +10, Athletics +10, Speechcraft +10, Armorer +5 Specials: Standard Waterwalking Spell.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's a race mod, make sure to place the ESP in your Oblivion Data folder and activate it in the launcher.
  • If you're using a mod manager like OBMM or Wrye Bash, install it through that to keep your load order clean.
  • Check if the race appears in the character creation menu; if not, verify the mod is enabled and load order is correct.
