📋 About This Mod

A collection of Skaal stuff for your game: House, follower, weapon and armour. Now for SSE and XB1!

:: WHAT'S NEW FOR SSE ::

• I changed Hannah's face because the facetint was 256 (awful)

• Removed Advanced Armours perk requirement from Skaal recipes because they wouldn't work with the perk overhaul I was using, or other mods

• Removed edits to the village merchant, they were also being overwritten by other mods wtf SSE stop ruining me

• Added custom music for the house

• Adds a baking surface to make Hearthfires foods in Nordbotten

• Added some more storage by swapping some static containers to functional ones

• House is a small shack called Nordbotten, it's just outside the Skaal village in Solstheim.

• Weapon is a craftable horker tusk bow and horker tusk arrows.

• Armour is a mini version of the Skaal armour, for UNP bodytype by default, CBBE and BodySlide files are provided as optional download.

Only the female version is unique.

If you put the armour on a male character it will look like a normal Skaal outfit. The circlet should work with all. I tested the circlet with a custom race from Charmers of the Reach and it looked pretty awful though, but all vanilla races and genders are supported.

CRAFT WITH THE SKAAL RECIPES BOOK YOU FIND IN THE HOUSE!

• Wynter is an archer who uses the new gear added by this mod. She was supposed to have a unique voice,

but it turns out while I'm great at voicing a Skaal character, I actually HATE creating dialogue and such stuff in CK.

She is a standalone follower so she will look mighty sexy no matter whose computer she ends up on. All her textures and meshes are packed in the mod.

Wynter uses the vanilla follower system so she should work fine with all the common follower framework mods, she returns to the Greathall if you dismiss her. Her bodytype is UNP, I made her a long time ago I can't remember what happens if you try to undress her.

She probably has UNP nevernude body, I think.

• The house has an alchemy and enchanting station, cooking, bookshelf and lots of safe, named storage. There's also a shrine to the All-Maker.

Purchasing the house will count towards your "owned houses" stats.

Outside by the village smithy is a chest you can use to store your smithing mats.

:: HOW TO GET THE STUFF ::

Buy the house from Hannah in the Skaal village Greathall for 7 000 gold. She is VERY persistent until you buy it >:)

You can find the follower, Wynter, at the same loca
