📋 About This Mod
Name: Wiedergaenger Race Reanimated Author: Mondstein Version: 2. 4 Date: 07. July 2014 Category: Races
This is the Read Me =====================
This mod is still growing. More content and new features will be added over time. So please make sure to check the update section regularly or even track the file.
A few pics - showing Interiors, Exteriors, NPC's (the race pics are all uploaded in the image section of this mod) etc. - to start with (so you know what you can expect by downloading this mod):

NEW VERSION: WIEDERGAENGER RACE 2. 4 ======================================
Includes Nergals Feed Fix, fixes Nergals Aggression, hopefully fixes Wielands and Melogs Mod haunting (just in case they do it again deactivate the mod, when you start a new game with a different race).
WIEDERGAENGER RACE NERGAL FEED FIX ======================================
bukkakerulz mentioned in the comment section that Nergals script doesn't work correctly (big thanks to bukkakerulz for pointing that out. I always get something wrong, when I write scripts). Just install this fix and it will work correctly from now on (this does work with older saves (of the EV version 2. 3 and DV version 1. 7) of the race).
IMPORTANT ===========
Do not use this file with the saves of the old version of this race.
You also have to start a new game with this version, otherwise the quests won't start. If you want to skip the tutorial you can also use an alternate start mod.
And this is important: Do not use a save at the sewers end. The quests will simply not start.
You have to download one of the .esp's (EV or DV) and the Textures and Meshes. Otherwise the mod will not work.
Description ===========
A Wiedergaenger or Revenant is a human being that died violently, and is raised either by a mage, or by its own will, to fulfill revenge on its murderer. Usually the Wiedergaenger is slightly less intelligent than it was in life, has missing memories and unusual powers such as waterbreathing, a 100% immunity to diseases and poison and a 10% immunity against normal weapons. They have a weakness to fire be it magical or not. Wiedergaenger are able to spread fear amongst their enemies once a day and can infect other people with a variety of diseases. Undead won't attack them unless the power of the Wiedergaenger is diminished.
Adds the Wiedergaenger race, a revenant raised from violent death, complete with a custom questline. Includes an English translation. A niche but well-received race mod for Oblivion with 438 endorsements.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 438 endorsements and over 27k downloads.
- Adds both a race and quests, giving more content than a typical race mod.
- Includes an English translation, making it accessible to non-German speakers.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2014, so may have compatibility issues with newer Oblivion versions or mods.
- Requires manual installation or mod manager setup, but no clear guidance given.
For Oblivion players who want a new race with a built-in questline and a dark fantasy theme. If you enjoy roleplaying as undead characters or want more content tied to a race, this is for you. Skip if you prefer simple cosmetic races without extra quests.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Oblivion Mod Manager (OBMM) or Wrye Bash to install and manage the mod files.
- Check the mod's readme or forum posts for any load order recommendations, as quest mods often need to be placed correctly.
- Since the mod is from 2014, test it early in your playthrough to ensure it doesn't conflict with other mods you have.
