This mod features a custom recreation of the Dunmer race from The Elderscrolls Series. It has a strong focus on the Cosmetics and Visuals of the Dunmer, however there are still unique passives and spells, and some level progression for each subrace.


This mod includes:

6 subraces themed after the Great Houses, House Dagoth, and the Ashlanders
7 custom spells with custom VFX
Custom Race and Subrace Icons, as well as Passive and Spell Icons.
11 Unique Heads (6 masc, 5 femme) with Brow Ridges, Scarification, and Support for Bodies 1, 2, 3, and 4
A grand total of 50 unique Skin Tones and 64 Eye Presets (includes blind options)
A Tattoo Atlas with 19 hand drawn Tattoos
An assortment of custom piercings themed after the gaudy gold and green piercings of TES3
A slew of patches for many popular head/hair mods, slightly adjusted to fit into the Dunmer race!

As of now the only requirements for the base mod are Improved UI and ImprovedUI Assets for the Race/Subrace Icons




This mod currently comes with 6 subraces, and while they are mostly for flavour they do have their own unique passives and spells, the 6 subraces are as follows: House Redoran, House Hlaalu, House Telvanni, House Indoril, Sixth House, and Ashlander.

The core Dunmer race comes with 2 Passives at level 1, and two unique racial abilities, one at level 3 and one at level 8.
Almost every subrace comes with a Passive at level 1, and a unique racial ability at level 5, barring House Telvanni and Sixth House.

Writeup of all the race progressions below the spoiler, or refer to the progressions chart in the media tab!

Known Issues

There are some minor known issues at the moment which will not impact the mod drastically but there is nothing I can do to fix them.

- Level 1 Sixth House passive will appear twice in the CC and one of them will be named 'Fey Ancestry', this is due to how the sleep immunity passive works, this is only visible in the CC and is not visible on your character sheet.
- Level 5 Sixth House passive does not appear in the CC on level up, it is however properly added to your character and appears on your character sheet.
- Level 8 Telvanni Levitation Passive Toggle does not appear in the CC, it is however properly added and will appear on your hot bar under passives, you can also find it in your spell book and add it to a more convenient spot on your hot bar.
