📋 About This Mod
~ GET READY FOR BASIC WENCHES ~
This mod adds a total of 20 NPC's to the game - one cute barmaid in each inn and tavern in Skyrim.
They have high-poly heads and pretty hair.
They wear the standard tavern wench outfit.
They use your installed clothing, bodies and skin textures.
All sell drinks. Most will let you rent a room. Sometimes you can ask them about rumors or work.
They're functionally clones of the innkeepers in each region.
Also - I cannot stress this enough - This mod does not do anything else!
It lacks the ambition - and the feature bloat - of name-brand wench mods.
Unless bugs are identified, I don't even plan to update it.
ESL Flagged.
