📋 About This Mod
This is a simple lesser power that allows you to change your appearance. I realize this is easily done with the console, but poo on that.
The power is learned via a Spell Tome found in Farengar's chamber in Dragonsreach (which is in Whiterun in case you're late to the party). Just turn right upon entering and look for a small table in the corner.
This should not be used on vampire or werewolf characters. If you do and then complain in the comments, I WILL make fun of you for not reading the description.
Huge thanks to all who endorse! :D

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 578 endorsements and over 15k downloads.
- No more fumbling with console commands—just cast the spell and edit your look.
- Works for both male and female characters, and it's a single spell, so it's easy to manage.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2017, so it might not be compatible with the latest Skyrim Special Edition or Anniversary Edition updates.
- Only opens the appearance menu—doesn't include any extra customization options beyond what the game already offers.
- As a cheat mod, it might break immersion for roleplayers who prefer to earn changes through gameplay.
For Skyrim players who want to tweak their character's face mid-playthrough without console commands. Perfect for those who regret their initial character creation or want to update their look after installing new skin or hair mods. Skip if you're on a strict roleplay run and want to avoid any 'cheaty' conveniences.
💡 Beginner Tips
- After installing, the spell should appear in your magic menu under 'Powers'—just equip and cast it to open the appearance menu.
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2, make sure to enable the mod and deploy it before launching the game.
- Since it's a cheat mod, it's safe to use with most setups, but always check for compatibility with other mods that alter the race menu or character creation.
