📋 About This Mod
What This IsThis mod adds blood-providing bodies to the ice floes outside Septimus Signus' Outpost for the quest, Discerning the Transmundane.
All five of the necessary blood types are available: Altmer, Bosmer, Dunmer, Falmer, and Orsimer.
This way you don't have to go gallivanting half-way across all of Tamriel to find them. Namira worshipping cannibals can also eat them, if they want, except for the Falmer (which taste horrible, BLECH!).
Available as a PC ESL file that won't count against Skyrim's (woefully low) mod limit.
Where Do I Find Them?Right outside Septimus Signus' outpost, scattered around the ice floes.
CompatibilityThe mod is incompatible with any other mod that edits the cell immediately outside Septimus Signus' Outpost.
InstallationInstall with your favorite module manager.
Please note: NMM users may need to download a newer version from github that supports ESL plugins AND enable BloodForSeptimus.esl on the Plugins tab- Just make sure there's a check mark in the box.

Extra NotesPlease note: The bodies will be dressed in your Skyrim setup's default gear. Pictured in the screenshot is the Skyrim LE mod Sexy Vanilla Female Armor for UNP and SevenBase with BBP, available here on the Nexus at https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/34160
