📋 About This Mod

This mod overhauls 4 of the main female vampires in the Dawnguard expansion found in Castle Volkihar.  I don't think there are anymore.

This requires you to have the Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch installed.  I may change this later, but for now, its a requirement.

Unlike my past mods, this is partially standalone.  The only thing I've included is the hairs.  So this will use YOUR Body Type, Skin Textures, Vampire Eyes and Eyebrows.  I would recommend Mature skin if I had to choose but any will work.  This "works" with the vanilla skin textures, but you WILL have differences between the head and body tones.  This should not be an issue if you install your own skins.  I've tried 3 different skins for CBBE and none had tone differences between the head and body.

The following characters are touched:

Fura Bloodmouth

Salonia Caelia

Alva (Morthal) (ver 2. 0+)

Sybille Stentor (ver 3. 0+)

Hert (ver 3. 0+)

NOTE: I did not touch Serana and Valerica because Bijin does a great job with those.  I have not touched anything else about the characters above except change their facegen data, hair texture and makeup.  Heights, Weights...etc are all left alone.

Also, my photos don't have quite as many vampirish bumps.  Thats because I have ECE installed with vampire fixes and other stuff.  Also lighting can make them more visible.  If you don't have anything that addresses the vampire race, you may get a bit more bumps and sunken cheeks.

Requirements (must be installed):

Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch

Enhanced Character Edit

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

Metalsabers Beautiful Vampires of Skyrim overhauls four main female vampires in the Dawnguard expansion, making them more attractive using ECE presets. A cosmetic NPC overhaul with 770 endorsements, last updated in January 2019.

✨ Key Features

Overhauls 4 main female vampires in Castle Volkihar from the Dawnguard expansion.
Aims to make these vampires more attractive based on the author's ECE presets.
Cosmetic-only changes, no gameplay alterations.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community-approved with 770 endorsements and over 16k downloads.
  • Targets specific NPCs, so it's a focused overhaul without touching the rest of the game.
  • Based on ECE presets, so the faces are designed with a consistent aesthetic.

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2019, so it may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim versions or mods.
  • Only affects 4 NPCs, so it's a small scope—don't expect a full vampire overhaul.
  • Requires ECE (Enhanced Character Edit) as a dependency, which might conflict with other character mods.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who want the main female vampires in Dawnguard to look more appealing without changing gameplay. If you're using ECE and want a quick visual upgrade for these specific NPCs, this is for you. Skip if you're looking for a broader vampire overhaul or don't use ECE.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you have ECE installed before adding this mod, or the faces may not appear as intended.
  • Load this mod after other NPC overhauls to ensure its changes take priority.
  • If you're using a mod manager, preview the NPCs in-game to see the changes before committing.
