LIKE MY MODS?

If you like what I do, please consider subbing to my Patreon. Even with just $1 a month, together with the other players it makes difference at scale! I've found Patreon support to be a tremendous reserve of strength, and it influences me to be more 'professional' about my mods and support.

I offer $1 benefits, like having your name put in Realm of Lorkhan's "Book of Patrons". That means that tens of thousands of other Skyrim players will have your name on their hard-drive.

Click it, you know you want to!
