📋 About This Mod
A total rework for the visuals & skills of several followers with an immersive, lore-friendly approach. All of the affected NPCs have been given the ability to level alongside the player up to level 50 & some have been given new combat perks so they can carry their own weight against whatever threats the Dragonborn may face.
This mod overhauls the following Mer:
Erandur ~ Faendal ~ Jenassa
Ralis Sedarys ~ Talvas Fathryon ~ Teldryn Sero
My goal was to visually enhance each follower in a way that wouldn't look too out of place in the vanilla game, but still be unique & reflective of their personality/background. This also extends to combat, with several characters gaining access to useful perks, spells, etc. To see a more in-depth list of changes for each follower, click the spoiler tag below.
-- ARANEA IENITH --
Perks Added: Light Foot
Level Cap: Raised from 30 to 50
New Outfit: Temple Priest Robes & Boots
NOTES: The default hooded robes just didn't do her justice. It's a simple yet lore-friendly change that I feel is fit for the Priestess of Azura.
-- ATHIS --
Perks Added: Light Foot, Bladesman (Tier 1), Shield Wall (Tier 2), Agile Defender (Tier 2)
Level Cap: Raised from 25 to 50
NOTES: Athis is the self-proclaimed future leader of the Companions, but his combat skills were disappointing at best. I've given him a few perks to help round out his lackluster kit along with a new look inspired by the Ashlanders.
-- BELEVAL --
Perks Added: Light Foot, Overdraw (Tier 1), Hack & Slash (Tier 1), Agile Defender (Tier 2)
Level Cap: Raised from 25 to 50
New Class: Ranger (Archery, One-Handed, Block, Light Armor, Sneak)
New Outfit: Dawnguard Light Armor
NOTES: Beleval is the only female Bosmer that can follow you in the base game, but her Bandit class & max level of 25 were very underwhelming. I've made her into a Ranger & swapped out her default heavy armor for a light set instead.
