📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Solid follower mod with 97 endorsements and over 11k downloads—community-tested.
  • Unique perks actually change combat, not just a pretty face.
  • Three hairstyles give you options without needing extra mods.

⚠️ Cons

  • Face-only customization means body textures are separate—you'll need a compatible body mod or mismatches.
  • Author notes common marriage bugs; you may need unofficial patches to fix them.
  • Compatibility risk with mods that alter follower AI or appearance, since it edits follower records.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who want a distinctive, marriageable male follower with a backstory and combat perks. Great if you're tired of generic followers and want someone who fits a rogue/explorer archetype. Skip if you prefer female followers or want a fully custom body—this is face-only.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If Ingarth won't talk or follow, save and reload—the author confirms this fixes it.
  • For marriage issues, install the Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch or a marriage overhaul mod.
  • Since he uses custom face meshes, avoid other mods that alter NPC faces to prevent conflicts.
