📋 About This Mod
This adds the beautiful Minerva follower to your game.
She is a standalone follower which means no other mods will be required.
She is fully voiced using the Female Elf Haughty voice type, which has no follower dialogue in vanilla Skyrim, with over 200 lines of dialogue.
These include: more friendly greetings, appropriate follower responses, combat dialogue, general idle comments, comments on certain quests, and more. She is not your typical snobby, arrogant, stuck-up High Elf. She's quite polite and affectionate towards the player, but is very cynical and degrading of her enemies.
She also comes with her own MCM with features such as: the ability to customize some of her dialogue, teleport her instantly to your location, let other Female Elf Haughty NPCs use her dialogue, completely customize how she will behave in combat and which type of weapons she will use, and more!
There are also compatible versions for AFT, EFF, iAFT, FLP, and UFO that you can easily select in the FOMOD during installation.
You also have the option to recruit Minerva through her own follower system, allowing you to have more than 1 follower (if you're using the vanilla follower system), or allow her to follow you if you're using an unsupported follower overhaul.
You can change her hair style in the MCM. Open the spoiler below to see how to change it!

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: 8,816 endorsements and over 222k downloads—she's a proven favorite.
- Over 200 voiced lines means she actually talks, not just generic grunts.
- Built-in MCM gives you real control over her dialogue and combat behavior.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in September 2023—might have issues with the latest Skyrim patches or AE updates.
- Only one follower—if you want a whole party, this isn't it.
For Skyrim players who want a polished, talkative companion with customization options. If you're a modded playthrough veteran who likes tweaking follower behavior via MCM, this is for you. Skip if you prefer silent followers or need a full companion pack.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have SkyUI installed, as the MCM requires it to show up in-game.
- If you're on Skyrim Special Edition or Anniversary Edition, check the mod's posts for compatibility patches.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to avoid overwriting files and to easily uninstall if needed.
