📋 About This Mod
Screenshots are welcome!
This mod adds my Iona replacer version and also changes her default gender behaviour (I've unchecked it from CK) and set her to essential.
Q: Is this compatible with X mod?
A: If it changes Iona, no. You must choose between this mod and the other.
Q: Can you change/make/add/remove X?
A: I don't think so. I'm happy with the current mod. The updates only aim to fix possible bugs.
Q: I don't like this mod because X.
A: That's not a question, it's an opinion and nobody's forcing you to download this mod.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 328 endorsements and 5,595 downloads
- Lightweight and focused—does one thing well
- Easy to install and remove without affecting other parts of the game
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects Iona—if you're looking for more follower overhauls, this won't cover them
- Last updated in 2020, so it may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim versions or mods
- Potential conflicts with other mods that modify Iona's appearance or AI
For Skyrim players who want a fresh look for Iona without overhauling all followers. If you're a completionist or roleplayer who spends time in Riften, this is a quick visual upgrade. Skip if you want gameplay changes or a broader follower overhaul.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Place the mod in your load order after any mods that change Iona's appearance to ensure it takes effect.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to easily toggle it on and off.
- If you use other follower mods, check for conflicts in xEdit to avoid visual glitches.
