📋 About This Mod
Adds Mirai Yamato—a young, but formidable warrior—as a recruit-able and marriageable follower to the game. She can be found in the Frostfruit Inn in Rorikstead.
She is of Akaviri descent, being the youngest remaining member of the once proud Yamato Clan—a family that had served as Blades for generations, and could trace their history all the way back to the original Akaviri Dragonguard. Born in the aftermath of the Great War, she fled Cyrodiil with her mother as a baby—her father having been killed by the Thalmor during their bid to exterminate what remained of the Blades.
Living in exile and on the run, her mother made sure to pass on the Clan's traditional forms and histories—so that she would be able to defend herself should the Thalmor hunt them down, and that the Yamato legacy might carry on—she grew to be a skilled and resourceful warrior, who despite all her hardships, retained her optimism and kind nature.
And so—many years later—she arrives in Skyrim on her own adventure, seeking out rumors of Blades remnants and hidden ruins, and with aspirations of someday taking the fight to the Thalmor and the Dominion.
She is rather capable—and while lacking any real talent for magick—she has considerable stamina. In battle she will use two-handed weapons (Yari, Odachi)—and if given one, will also readily use bows.
Mirai also has relevant and useful perks—enhancing her prowess with two-handed weapons in damage and defence, as well as making her excellent in the use of bows, light armor and decently sneaky (her movement is muffled, and she will not trigger pressure plates).

NOTES:
・Mirai uses a standalone UNP body (Nevernude) and custom textures—an edited mashup/mire of textures (that I've all but lost track of this point) that I edited together using GIMP and DXT1BMP.
・She is marriageable, essential, uses the ‘Female Even-Toned’ voicetype, and will 1:1 level scale with the player.
・Also included are a Racemenu preset and import-able head morph, should you wish to play as Mirai instead.
