📋 About This Mod
"Hear our cries oh darkness, devour thine dead, swallow their skins and feast upon the rotting--to make them no more.
Relieve us of our burdens; free us from their memories..."
Are you tired of seeing dead bodies and ash piles hanging around day after day, week after week?
Do you use Sands of Time and by chance, left over 300 dead bodies in Bleak Falls Barrow?
Have you have resorted to dumping the bodies in the sewers?
And... is your game not stable due to dead npcs all over Skyrim eating up game resources?
The Darkness has heard your pleas, and it has answered.....
The Sands of Time Team proudly presents: Dead NPC Cleaner
1) Automatically remove dead bodies. Once you leave an area the mod will quietly delete the dead.
2) Optionally use flame or fire spells to burn the dead. You can also use a torch (kinda), see sticky (on the post page).

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust (7,713 endorsements) — this is a go-to for corpse cleanup.
- Two ways to handle bodies: auto-remove on area exit or burn them yourself for roleplay flair.
- Lightweight and simple — no complex setup, just drop it in and go.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in June 2023 — might not be fully compatible with the latest game patches.
- Auto-removal might break quests or scripts that rely on dead bodies staying around.
- Burning bodies with fire spells could conflict with other mods that alter fire effects or corpse persistence.
For Skyrim players who hate tripping over dead bandits and want a cleaner world without manual dragging. Also great for performance-minded folks who want to reduce clutter. Skip if you need bodies to stay for necromancy or quest purposes — this mod actively removes them.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you use a mod manager like Vortex, install this as a regular mod and let it overwrite any conflicting corpse-related mods.
- Test with a save where you've just cleared a dungeon — leave the area and come back to see if bodies are gone.
- If you use other mods that affect corpses (like lootable bodies), load this one after them to ensure it takes priority.
