📋 About This Mod
Aesthetic Elisif by Qxd
Description: Have you ever laughed at Bethesda for creating a thing called 'Elisif the Fair' that couldn't be further away from that name? Well, with this mod those hilarious days are over, sorry. If you decide to download it anyways this is what you get: This mod is a standalone replacer (which means that all neccessary resources are indluded) for Jarl Elisif of Solitude. Since according to the lore she is supposed to be a young and gorgeous noble, the aim of this mod is to present something more fitting while hopefully staying natural. She will now have new hair, brows, eyes, mouth and the UNP or CBBE body with high resolution skin textures. Clothing however is untouched.
Installation: Simply drag and drop the files into your data directory.
Requirements: Due to some dirty work from my side Dawnguard is required, which is included in the game files anyways.
FAQ: Is this compatible with X? As long as the other mod doesn't change Elisif's face there shouldn't be any issues. Else you most likely wouldn't want to use both simultanously anyways.
Why doesn't she look like in the screens? The screens were taken in the original Skyrim with settings I can't really achieve in SSE yet. Maybe one day though...
Which mods are responsible for the clothes in the screens? UNP Minidresses for meshes and Rustic Clothing for textures.
I want her as a spouse/follower! That would change more than this mod is supposed to do. There are however other mods to change your relation with Elisif. My favourite is Amorous Adventures by Foxfingers which adds a huge questline to conquer her heart.
