📋 About This Mod

My replacers are free to use and all, but I RESPECTFULLY ask to NOT use my replacers as your mod thumbnail for OSTIM / Sexualized / Nudity content stuff. This applies to all of them.Btw, being extremely anti-any-sign-of-ageing-'imperfections'-on-any-feminine person/or character lowkey makes you a creep.

Displaying patriarchal pedophilic standards in any way, even for fictional characters in a video game, is highly disturbing. It's not 'criticism' commenting this type of s_it on fictional sculpts of NPCs for a decade old game. It's outright just WEIRD. Ok byeeee.

⛧°. ♰  V O L K I H A R B O R

is a Harkon and Valerica NPC replacer mod. It visually overhauls the prime divorced parents in all of Skyrim Harkon and Valerica from the Dawnguard DLC, along with a unique animated texture for Harkon, custom hair-maship for Valerica and some height tweaks (no, Valerica won't be taller than your Gary Sue if you're so concerned about tall women drools).

I've attempted to sculpt them to keep their vanilla vibe in-tact while trying to modernize them for my own set-up.

Additionally, I added a few details that I felt would enhance them a bit more! Both will look like tired, undead vampires, and Harkon will have a small cracked texture on his cheek that pulses with a blue glow to try portray the whole 'too powerful for his own good' typa thing (similar to my Miraakle replacer!)  :- )

  • Make sure you have the Dawnguard DLC installed, or the mod won't have anything to replace.
  • If you're using a mod manager, preview the files before installing to see if the textures match your other visual mods.
