📋 About This Mod
Miniel is standalone, meaning that she doesn't require any other mods. She starts at level 5 and will level with you up to level 80. She is a novice storm mage but knows a few spells from the other elements as well as healing and steadfast ward. She doesn't triggers pressure plates. You will find her in the Ivarstead inn, probably drinking some wine. Miniel is unarmored, only wearing merchant clothes but she will equip what you give her. As always, I highly recommend the use of a follower framework such as AFT or EFF as well as Relationship Dialogue Overhaul to get the most out of your followers.
SPECIAL EDITION? Get Miniel and her sister here!
