📋 About This Mod
Some of the description on this page is out of date or not quite what it seems (mainly the spells). If you have a question; as Rinera put it, my minions will answer-if not me. So leave a comment please. For those that wish to use the console to add (or subtract) spells from the three races. Please refer to the Spell ID chart found below the FAQ
Just as a warning: I am usually a very happy person (except when I have my depressive episodes). But a GRAVE pet peeve of mine is when people ask about problems WITHOUT giving me any further information. If something is not working, don't just tell me "it crashes". I NEED INFORMATION. If I bite your head off, It's due to prego hormones and stress. So I am placing this as a courtesy.
Love all users of the Matera (new and old) Charis For everyone that is having issues with showracemenu. 9/10 times, it is not the mod. It is the showracemenu in general. Skyrim is designed to load everything at once while in character creation. So if you have say...hair mods. It will likely crash if your PC can not handle the output. So below is the recommended fix. Matera IS compatible with all hair mods. I have over 275+ hairs and I have yet to see any NOT compatible. ShowRaceMenu Precache Killer by kapaer
Guess who's back! Only this time they are MUCH furrier. Better buy a ton of conditioner now while you can.
Skyrim (ofcourse) requires skyrim to be updated to at least 1. 8. 1 - Not my doing, blame Bethesda lol RacialCompatibility.esm -RaceCompatibility for Dawnguard plus vanilla version upgrades by TMPhoenix *Has a nice lovely NMM installer now
I DID NOT add any hair, eyes, anything, so it's basically basic. purposefully done. Please look at the additional credits below for links to hair, eyes, etc. Default is Redguard Race.
The Battle Matera is the strength behind the Materan society. They love the steel in their hands and the armor against their fur. They are closer to the original Matera then any other of the orders. They much prefer strength over stealth and treat everyone in their order wi

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 1,510 endorsements and over 51k downloads—clearly a popular pick for Matera fans.
- Fills a niche for players who want a more combat-focused, furry race option in Skyrim.
- Simple concept: if you like the Matera race but want more brawn, this is your pack.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2014—over a decade old, so it may have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions or mods.
- Requires the original Matera race mod to work, but that dependency isn't explicitly stated in the description—check before installing.
For Skyrim players who already use the Matera race mod and want a tougher, furrier variant for warrior playthroughs. If you're into furry races and roleplaying as a defender of the pack, this adds flavor. Skip if you're looking for detailed racial abilities or if you don't use the base Matera mod.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the original Matera race mod installed first—Battle Matera is an add-on, not standalone.
- Since it's from 2014, use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to handle potential conflicts with other race mods.
- Check the mod's posts or comments for any known compatibility patches if you're running Skyrim Special Edition or Anniversary Edition.
