Knight of the Village

My version by Xtudo

Description

My version of the lovely Knight of the Village mod.

  • []It is ONLY FOR FEMALE CHARACTERS.

    []60 pieces.

    []Eight heavy and light armors and shields.

    []Four one-handed swords.

    []All pieces can be crafted at any forge, and tempered.

    []The heavy armors have similar stats than the Ebony armor.

    []The light armors have similar stats than the Scale armor.

    []No hi-heels.

    []It will work with any body shape, UNP, CBBE, vanilla, etc.

    []2K and 4K optimized textures.

  • []All the armors have the "Warm" keyword set, for the Survival mode.

    []It will work for both SE and AE.

    []Some little fixes and tweaks here and there.

    You need a clean save before installing this update (v1. 1):

    • []Remove all the old items from your inventory.

      []Make a manual save (exit the game).

      []Delete the old ESP file and the old optional downloads (like Short boots).

      []Load your game and make a new manual save (exit the game).

      []ONLY install the items included in "CalienteTools" from the original mod, and execute BodySlide to get your desired shape.

      []Install my mod.

      []Activate the "Knight of The Village Set.esp" and you are good to go, have fun!

      It requires the original mod meshes files, the ones created via BodySlide. The original ESP and textures aren't required.

      - LE Version here.

      I made it for my game and now I'm sharing it, I hope you like it.

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

This is Xtudo's take on the Knight of the Village mod, adding 60 new craftable and temperable items: eight heavy/light armor sets, shields, and swords for Skyrim Special Edition. It's a solid expansion for players wanting more medieval-style gear without quests or world edits.

✨ Key Features

Adds 60 new items total, including eight heavy and light armor sets, shields, and swords.
All new items can be crafted and tempered, integrating with vanilla smithing.
Based on the original Knight of the Village mod, reworked by Xtudo for Skyrim SE.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community favorite with over 1,000 endorsements and 56k downloads, so it's proven.
  • Gives you a ton of gear variety—60 items means plenty of mix-and-match options.
  • Craftable and temperable, so it fits right into your smithing progression.

⚠️ Cons

  • No quests or world integration—it's purely a crafting addition, so if you wanted a story, this isn't it.
  • Being a rework, it might conflict with other mods that alter the same armor slots or smithing recipes.
  • Last updated in November 2025, but if you're on an older game version, you might need to check compatibility.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who love collecting and crafting new armor sets without messing with quests or lore. If you're into medieval knight aesthetics and want more smithing options, this is a solid pick. Skip if you're looking for gameplay overhauls or story content.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to install—it's a simple drop-in, but managing load order is easier that way.
  • Check that the armors appear in the crafting menu under the right smithing perks (e.g., Steel, Elven) to avoid confusion.
  • If you're on Skyrim SE, make sure you have the latest game patch to avoid any mesh or texture issues.
