📋 About This Mod



Thank you calyps for the open permission to convert the armor to SSE CBBE BodySlide version.

Skyrim: Nightshade Armor by calyps

This is, as already mentioned above, the SSE CBBE BodySlide version of the outfit.

What is immersive physics? Means whichever makes sense for the nature of the outfit. In this case, only butt physics are applied.

New recolours: Blue, Green, Purple.

Fur version only has cuirass (as in original mod). Use it in Skimpy version (removed chainmail), together with Forsworn boots and gauntlets.

Most of the pictures are using NORMAL version so open BodySlide and please tick the zap option for SKIMPY version before build!

(taken from Skyrim page)

Designed for use as an assassin. Gloves, Boots, Armor and Mask options all available in one download. Mask comes in 3 flavors, full, no neck, and neck only.

Where is it?

It can be crafted at a smithy (found under "misc") or you can use the console.

What are the stats?

Roughly similar to glass armor.
