📋 About This Mod

Long story short, I intended to release this mod years ago but ran into some visual issues while transferring the meshes to Skyrim. I was recently inspired to look into it again, and... Well, here they are.
Made in Blender, Zbrush, and Substance Painter.
As the title states, this mod adds several Argonian funerary masks based on the Bog Blight masks from The Elder Scrolls Online.
Bog Blights are a type of naturally forming zombie that comes about when a xul-vaat, or grave-stake is removed from the corpse that it impales. When an Argonian dies, their corpse is laid to rest in the marsh, sometimes at the roots of the Hist. A xul-vaat is used to pin the corpse into the ground so it doesn't rise as an undead bog blight. Grave-stakes don't just prevent the corpses from floating to the surface of the bog. The deceased's story is carved upon their stake. Tales of their victories and defeats, tales from childhood, names of friends, dreams, and nightmares—a grave-stake tells those who see it about the corpse it impales. - UESP. NET
