📋 About This Mod
Here's a simple Revamp/overhaul of 4 named NPC's at Battlehorn Castle (the castellan Athon, the blacksmith Niels, the taxidermist Melisi Daren and the maid Rona Benanius) using NPC Appearance Manager and RaceMenu Utilities by animandan, they're not specifically more faithful to Oldblivion or anything like that but simply revamped with my personal tastes in mind, they're just all feels pretty unique and closer to their personality like that in my opinion, Niels looks more like your typical old and beardy Nordic blacksmith, Melisi looks more like the creative person she seems to be, Athon seems more experienced and akin to his redguard culture and Rona... well, she is just a prettier maid now.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Tiny, focused mod that does exactly what it says—no bloat, just face edits for four NPCs.
- Respectable community support with 148 endorsements and over 8k downloads.
- Last updated in May 2025, so it's still fresh and likely compatible with current setups.
⚠️ Cons
- Only touches four NPCs, so if you're expecting a full castle overhaul, this isn't it.
- No screenshots or detailed previews in the description, so you're flying blind on the actual look.
- Potential conflicts with other mods that alter the same NPCs—check your load order.
For Oblivion players who want the named NPCs at Battlehorn Castle to stand out more visually. If you're into roleplaying or just tired of generic faces, this is a quick fix. Skip if you want gameplay changes or a broader overhaul—this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a simple file drop, just place the .esp in your Data folder and activate it in the launcher.
- If you use a mod manager like OBMM or Wrye Bash, install it through that to keep your load order tidy.
- Check for other mods that edit Battlehorn Castle NPCs to avoid conflicts—load this one after them if needed.
