📋 About This Mod
Bunch of alternate face textures for Charmers of the Reach to spice up your character's appearance.
They do NOT replace CotR's default textures, hence the name (addons, not overhauls or adaptations).
Most of them came from Dragon Age: Inquisition, either from Enaya13's Racemenu presets or my own ports. There are also normal maps with elven brow ridges (because default CotR faces don't have those), female textures adapted for male faces and male textures adapted for female faces. Lastly I included Yennefer (TW3) and Heather Mason (SH3)'s diffuses for fun.
The textures are not too realistic and not too cartoonish--basically what you'd expect from the games they're ported from. If you're looking for something much more life-like and detailed, I'll humbly direct you to swefrida's BnP - CotR Faces and Complexions for CotR instead.
About neckseam:
I'm slowly adding patches for various skin mods on my Dreamwidth. You need to install DamiLovesSunflowers' neck seam fixes first before installing my patch. For version 2. 0, there's only ALT1/ALT2 and BnP skin patches at the moment.
Slots added:
Female diffuse:
[]femalehead_0034.dds - A diffuse adaptation from one of the male textures. Freckled and reddish skin.
[]femalehead_0035.dds - A diffuse adaptation from one of the male textures. Has wrinkles around the eyes.
[]femalehead_0036.dds - A generic female diffuse from DAI. Meant for one of my original characters.
[]femalehead_0037.dds - Parts of Alistair's diffuse (DAI) adapted for female face.
[]femalehead_0038.dds - Leliana's diffuse (DAI), sorta.
[]femalehead_0039.dds - Morrigan's diffuse (DAI), caked with heavy make up.
[]femalehead_0040.dds - Sera's diffuse (DAI), with less ghastly eyeshadow.
[]femalehead_0041.dds - Calpernia's diffuse (DAI), I think.
[]femalehead_0042.dds - Josephine's diffuse (DAI), originally by Enaya13. I fixed the nose area and smoothed out the stripy eyeshadow. Her trademark moles removed.
[]femalehead_0043.dds - A generic female diffuse from DAI.
[]femalehead_0044.dds - Heather Mason's diffuse (SH3)
[]femalehead_0045.dds - Solas' diffuse (DAI) -- it works for female faces, if a bit rough and weathered
[]femalehead_0046.dds - A female adaptation from one of the male diffuse from DAI.
[]femalehead_0047.dds - Yennefer's diffuse (TW3)
[]femalehead_0048.dds - Isabela's diffuse (DAI). Fits darker-skinned characters.
[]femalehead_0049.dds - A diffuse a daptation from one of the male textures. Fits darker-skinned characters.[/size

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community backing with 311 endorsements and over 16k downloads.
- Adds real variety to face textures—nice if you're tired of the default options.
- Actively maintained, last updated January 2026, so it's not abandoned.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires Charmers of the Reach as a base, so it's useless without that mod.
- Purely cosmetic—no gameplay impact, so if you want more than looks, skip.
- Potential texture conflicts with other face mods that alter the same maps.
For Skyrim players who already use Charmers of the Reach and want more skin texture variety for their characters. If you're into character creation and like tweaking appearances, this is a quick win. Skip if you don't use Charmers of the Reach or prefer gameplay mods.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have Charmers of the Reach installed first, or these textures won't show up.
- Use a mod manager to install—it'll overwrite the default face textures cleanly.
- If you see weird face seams, check your load order and make sure this mod loads after Charmers of the Reach.
