Thought I'd make this because there’s not many Zelda mods for Skyrim as of yet. Been playing BOTW recently, lovely game kind of want Skyrim to have that same charm. I tried to recreate her likeness much as possible while still retaining human like face features, rather than go full anime style with exaggerated googly eyes ◉‿◉, I might do a optional version like that later, if you are into that. This is my first follower mod so I do apologize if something is not right and lemme know what you think.
Highly recommended mods to use alongside her
