📋 About This Mod
Pride of Skyrim 7
Men of Windhelm
Finally, I have finished my next installment of Male NPC's. It's a journey to beautify the world of Skyrim with handsome man-meat. Men of Windhelm.
I have created a video that showcases all the men I updated and provided it below (See below after my tedious instructions). If you want to know who is who, just check out the image section.
Please endorse if you love this mod. It keeps me motivated to create more.
Please read thoroughly before downloading
Seriously... DO IT
1. APPEARANCES: There are NO skin textures attached to this mod. That means you will have to suffer atrocious vanilla skin textures if you download. The good news is, it will accept any skin mod you wish to use. Please be aware that your NPCs will look a bit different than mine using different skin textures. I also use Silent Horizons ENB and Cathedral Weathers, so images may look different from mine.
2. ANIMATIONS: I created these using High Poly Head V4. It will need Expressive Facegen Morphs and Expressive Facial Animation Male. High Poly Head is baked into the mod, but not the animations. With that said, some have used this mod without them with no problems. If you find beard clipping or weird eyes, install these mods. If not, you should be fine.
3. EDITING: Please do not ask me to change appearances or remove tattoos, or ask me to remove NPCs. I won't do it and you can't make me. Please... just stop asking. Thank you!
4. LOAD ORDER: These do NOT work with other NPC mods that change the appearance of the men of Windhelm. NPCs should go down towards the end of your load order.
5. REQUIREMENTS: You will need to have USSEEP downloaded. Seriously, everyone should have this by now. It just makes my life a heck of a lot simpler that I don't have to do patches and extra files.
6. All the men in the images use Tempered Skins with SOS Light, KS Hairdos, Apachii Skyhair, and HC Hairdos.
Mods to avoid:
Same NPC overhauls - blackface issues
Mods that change the body size - neck seam issues (floating heads)
Improved Eye Reflections (Oldrim) - cataract looking eyes

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 579 endorsements and over 12,000 downloads.
- Gives Windhelm's men a much-needed glow-up, perfect for players who want a prettier Skyrim.
- Flexible with skin textures—you can pair it with your favorite skin mod for a unique look.
⚠️ Cons
- No skin textures included, so you'll see vanilla textures unless you install a skin mod.
- Requires USSEEP, which is a must-have for most modded setups but adds a dependency.
- Conflicts with other NPC overhauls for Windhelm—you'll have to pick one.
For Skyrim players who want to enhance the appearance of male NPCs in Windhelm without changing gameplay. It's ideal for those who already use skin texture mods and want a more handsome cast. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes or if you prefer to keep vanilla NPC looks.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have USSEP installed before adding this mod, as it's a hard requirement.
- Place this mod near the end of your load order to avoid conflicts with other NPC mods.
- If you see beard clipping or weird eyes, install Expressive Facegen Morphs and Expressive Facial Animation Male as recommended.
