This mod is part of my series to renovate vanilla characters with additional depth, unique history or personality, and immersive and detailed interaction.

"I don't even know why clowns exist. The average man already lives a life of sufficient absurdity."

How is Marcurio envisioned and touched on in this mod:

In this mod, Marcurio is an arrogant, rebellious wizard with a cynical outlook on everything as well as a taste for dark humor. A prodigy of magic, Marcurio has the skills to back his snarky behavior and could easily incinerate your foes.

The second son of a lesser noble in Cyrodiil, he was forced to join the Synod. The rebellious wizard, however, refused to let his father dictate his future. Now he is his own man - free, but in need of coin.

He can be hired in Riften for 500 gold. As a follower, he is highly skilled in destruction magic.

Will you rizz the wizard, or will the wizard rizz you?

Features:
