📋 About This Mod
By popular request, I've made my own edits to the popular mer children mod, Aymar and friends, in the same style as my mod Realistic RS Children. I was thinking about making my own -mer children mod, but found nothing wrong with mdfeelgood's additions, and plus I'm a user of the mod already! This currently adds 8 mer children, two of each race (Bosmer, Altmer, Dunmer, Orsimer).
As with the original mod, all children use the default child voices (of which there are only two, sadly)
This can be safely installed mid playthrough, since it only adds new NPCs. It can also be installed in an existing save over the top of the original Aymarandfriends.esp, since this only makes changes to the children's faces.

]If you don't have KS Hairdos 1. 7+, install the optional textures file. - Install this mod, and the mer children will be added to your game (or if you already use Aymar and friends, they will have new faces!)
I've also added an optional file which changes the children's names to ones I currently use in my game. Take a look!

Child descriptions from original mod.
Numbered as pictured, let to right, top to bottom.
Aymar is an orphaned Dunmer boy living in Windhelm. He can be found in the New Gnisis Cornerclub and will happily go with you at the slightest invitation.
2. Minedhel and 3. Methredhel
These two siblings were unfortunately orphaned when their hunter parents died somewhere in the wilderness (probably attacking a bear, or something). They were able to make it to Stonehills, the nearest settlement, but have been stuck there ever since. They can be adopted separately. Incidentally, Methredhel is a girl, she just likes running
