📋 About This Mod

Beautiful Bandits

_t0HCaW64Qo

I always wondered why your game character is in trouble with the law and about to be executed at the start of the game. Sounds like to me you were a trouble maker in Tamriel - one who left your homeland to avoid capture and unfortunately isn't successful in doing so upon return.  So here is how the story goes:  you meet a Bandit group who are heading back into Skyrim and decide to tag along to get back to your homeland.  Unfortunately the band stumbled right into an Imperial camp and all hell breaks loose.  Everyone in your band fought bravely, but the numbers were overwhelming, so you yelled for them to escape while you fought in a covering action until captured.  They don't know your fate, but imagine the worst - while never forgetting your bravery that allowed them to escape.  So imagine everyone's surprise when you spot your former companions in a camp just outside Riverwood.  The good times are about to start my friends...

Mod Description:

[]A small bandit camp just outside the entrance to Riverwood.   []Includes four extremely attractive and friendly to the player Bandit types:  2 - melee, 1 - missile (Archer), and 1 - mage. []They are all made from default game Bandit templates, just made friendly to the PC (I changed them to feminine animations though). []Optional Bandit Faction version for those that want to live dangerously.  Just don't come crying to me if your Bandit spouse decides to kill everyone at the wedding ceremony. []Standalone, no mods needed.  []The melee types are beefy 100 weights, the other two are 0 weights - they're easy to tell apart. []They level with you, and start out at level 20 to help carry your lame ss at the start of the game.  []They are essential, marriageable followers.   []No scripting or quest loads added to the game, so should be compatible with any good multi-follower mod.   []They use sandbox, eat, drink, idle and sleep packages at the camp. []They have a surprise waiting for you in a chest full of stolen loot.  Let's just say you are going to have a pleasant boost at the start of the game. []Choose from "Bandit", "Bandit Marauder", "Bandit Thug", and "Bandit Outlaw" to be your occasional companion or partner for life (Hi Mom, hi Dad, this is Bandit Thug!  We want to get married!  Dad: Wow she's a hottie. Looks like good breeding to me. Go for it.  Mom: Whaaaat?  Get out! Get out now!) []UNP, CBBE (Curvy), CBBE 3M (MAK's Big Bottom Edition), or Dream Girl body typ
