📋 About This Mod
I remade every Vampire NPC in Skyrim.
All of them.
New face, new hair, no more bat noses!Around 140 evil blood-crazed NPC's lookin' hott, feelin' hott
ABSOLUTELY REQUIRED FOREVER:
APACHII SKY HAIR
WITH the up-to-date Male & Female hair packs
Main version 1. 6+, Female Hair 1. 5+, Male Hair 1. 2+ ALL REQUIRED
Your game will crash horribly without ALL of these files!
This is a total remake from scratch of an older mod I made. The old one depended on "Vampire Texture Framework", but myself and many other users have been frustrated with VTF's edits to the vampire races, which don't work very well and
cause a lot of mod conflicts. The old version is still up, and still works, for those of you who really want vampire NPC's to
have a unique skin texture path. It's possible to do that without race edits, but I chose to keep it very simple this time.
This version uses your default skin and eye textures, so it's compatible with any body mod you're using; I simply used pale
skin tints on the characters. My own eye textures - as seen in the screenshots - are available here as a separate download.
would prefer not to change Serana. I realize there are many appearance mods available
just for that character, and also that some people simply prefer her original look.
For now there is NO "glowing eyes" version of this. Maybe later?
The idea was to make vampires NOT look like monsters!
My eye texture is designed for non-glowing eyes!
A patch is available for users who don't have Dawnguard...
IT'S CALLED DAWNGUARD!
Get it. It's good!
A patch is available for users who don't have ApachiiSkyHair...
CAN YOU GUESS WHERE I'M GOING WITH THIS?
Seriously though, do not ask me for a version without these requirements!
It takes quite a bit of work to edit this many NPC's, and now I've gone and done it twice!
Like an idiot!
I swear by how
Hott Vampires 2 - The Quickening is a cosmetic overhaul that replaces the appearance of every vampire NPC in Skyrim, both named and unnamed, removing bat-like noses and wrinkled faces to make them look more attractive and able to blend in with regular people. With over 1,200 endorsements and 28,000 downloads, it's a popular choice for players who want a more human-like vampire aesthetic.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,243 endorsements and 28,167 downloads—clearly a lot of players dig it.
- Makes every vampire look like they could pass for a normal person, which fits the whole 'hide in plain sight' vibe.
- Simple aesthetic change—no gameplay tweaks, so it's safe to drop in without worrying about balance.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016, so it might not play nice with the latest Skyrim versions or other vampire mods.
- It's purely cosmetic—if you were hoping for new vampire powers or quests, this isn't it.
For Skyrim players who want their vampires to look like actual people instead of monsters, especially if you're into roleplaying or just tired of the default ugly faces. Skip if you want gameplay changes or if you're using other vampire overhauls that might conflict.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, just download and install—no need to manually place files.
- Check your load order: put this mod after other mods that change NPC appearances to ensure it takes effect.
- Since it's from 2016, test it with your current setup—if vampires look weird, try cleaning with SSEEdit or look for a patch.
