Required for proper functionality:

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community trust with 245 endorsements and 5,431 downloads.
- Standalone follower means no conflicts with other follower overhauls.
- Sneak-based design fits stealth playthroughs perfectly.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2018, so it may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim SE patches.
- No detailed feature list, so you're going in blind on her abilities and personality.
- Potential conflicts with mods that alter follower frameworks or sneak mechanics.
For stealth-focused Skyrim players who want a dedicated sneak companion without messing with their existing follower setup. If you're a completionist looking for a new follower with a specific backstory or quest, this might not be enough — it's a straightforward follower mod.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a standalone follower, you can recruit her without affecting other follower mods, but check her location in-game after installing.
- If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file placement to avoid overwriting anything.
- Make sure your Skyrim SE is up to date, as the mod hasn't been updated since 2018 and may need compatibility patches.
