📋 About This Mod
ABOUT
Long story short - I have been unhappy with Lady Arkay's appearance for quite some time and I felt it was time she received a makeover. This is just a quick little mod thrown in for halloween while I'm working on something much bigger, so there's nothing special here - no bells and whistles, just a generic follower for those who appreciate such things.
Lady Arkay is my Skyrim version of the stunning comic villain Lady Death. This follower is standalone, starts at level 5 and will level with you indefinitely. She fights best with heavy armour and two-handed swords, and therefore comes equipped with ebony armor and her sword Deathbringer. I highly recommend the use of a follower framework (I personally use EFF) as well as Relationship Dialogue Overhaul to get the most out of your followers.

Name: Lady Arkay
Location: Whiterun Catacombs
Body type: UUNP (optional CBBE in file section)

LEGENDARY EDITION
COMPATIBILITY
This mod is compatible with everything, although it's possible that mods that alter the cell she's spawned in might cause conflicts - but honestly, not likely.
INSTALLATION & REQUIREMENTS
The mod comes in a FOMOD installer so I highly recommend installing this with a mod manager of your choice. If you want to install it manually, extract the contents of the "00 data" folder to your Data folder. The HDT version requires XPMSE.
FAQ
Q: Are the outfits included?
A: They are not but I have listed what she uses in the sticky post in the comments.
Q: My game is crashing!
A: Make sure you have installed the mod properly! If you don't have HDT/SMP or whatever the kids are using nowadays, choose the non-HDT body in the installer.
Q: Can you add/change/remove something?
A: Not unless there is an actual problem with my mod. This is my vision and I'm happy with it. I will absolutely not make any special versions for strangers on the internet.
Q: I can't find her!
A: The old version of Lady Arkay was placed in the Falkreath cemetary, but for compatibility reasons I have placed this version inside the Whiterun Hall of the Dead.
