About this mod

Some wearable custom hoods/helmets and clothings/armors for the companions (girls).

I am not a fan of vanilla hoods or helmets, so I decided to create few custom hoods and other equipment for companions, in particular Leliana, Morrigan, Wynne and Velanna (the girls).

Thanks to RogueLass for the precious help in making them work. Some hoods derive from the collection RLs Swan Song, which is an impressive collection of clothing and armor.

Thanks to Crypto217 for the choices of locations for the items and the customized stats.

Thanks to wizzyrm for scripting and integration. The intention is to make these unique items smoothly merged in the plot of Origins and Awakening.

Credits to hsli for DA2 Isabela and Flemeth to DAO and kronaras for Flemeth Robe. I merged their DA2 ports with vanilla Morrigan's Robes to create the custom Flemeth's Lost Robes for Morrigan.

----------------------------------------------

Main files:


1) Hoods and Gear (for the girls): One main file including:

1.1) Morrigan's Hood: restricted to Morrigan. (ID: 251). This looks like the hood in tmp7704 Concept Morrigan (the diffuse map is the same). I edited all the textures to include feather transparency etc. It is a good match of the robe, if you want a wearable hood for Morrigan, and do not plan to use tmp7704 redesign with the permanent hood. At present, this hood is not tintable, as it is for the vanilla Morrigan robe.
I gave it also the ability "Vicious", which I am not sure it works, but that describes perfectly Morrigan, am I right?
Integration: Morrigan starts the game equipped with the hood. The upgrade "Hood of Possession" can be found together with the Robes of Possession in Flemeth chest during the quest.
Note: in all cutscenes with dialogues, Morrigan is not wearing the hood. This is how DAO deals with helmets in the game.

1.2) Hood of the Black Fox: restricted to Leliana. (ID: 252). This is a hood to match with Armor of the Black Fox, which is my favorite armor for Leliana. It should be tintable as the original armor. I added "Messy kills" as a property. I hope to see then some kicking asses from my favorite bard.
Integration: The Fox's Hood is obtained alongside the rest of the Armor of the Black Fox, sold by Bodahn in the main game and by Lem in Leliana's Song.

1.3) Wynne's Jewels: restricted to Wynne. (ID: 253). This is a circlet/diadema for Wynne and intended to match with Surana Mage Robe. The idea is to mimic the circlet in the artwork (but not exactly). I use the darker retexture of the same robe.
To have the circlet and earrings always visible (my preference) also in dialogues, use the optional Wynne morph file included (based on vanilla face). Even better, use the custom morph in optional files. In this case you need Wynne Redesign mod to work correctly.
Integration: Wynne is equipped with the jewels from her first appearance in the Circle Tower.

1.4) Crown of the Keeper: restricted to Elves or Humans. (ID: 254). Intended to match with the "Skins of the Keeper" default robe of Velanna. I made both males and females models. In males, no hair is added, while in females, you see some of the default Velanna hair (same of Morrigan) because to me the sculpt was too much exposed. For males, the exposed rear sculpt is fine in my opinion. Let me know if you see excessive clipping in male models.
Integration: None yet. You must acquire it with the console (see below).

1.5) Robes of Possession: a retexture for DA:O Robes of Possession, to make them unique with respect to standard Morrigan's Robes (they are identical in vanilla game). Inspired from DAI Morrigan's robes and you can complete it with Morrigan's Hood (with DAI hair) in the optional files.

1.6) Flemeth's Lost Robe: my customization of DA2 Flemeth's Robe, inspired by pictures found on the web. I integrated it with the exposed arm from Morrigan's Robes, changes the mantle, and adjusted colors to match Morrigan's Robes and Hoods. Thanks to Crypto217 for the choices of the stats. You can use it with Morrigan's Hoods or the Helmet of the Witch. Integration: you can find it in Irving's chest in the Circle Tower.

1.7) Helmet of the Witch: a custom helmet resctricted to Morrigan (ID: 249), to work with Flemeth's Lost Robe for a unique look. Thanks to Crypto217 for the choices of the stats. Integration: you can find it with Flemeth's Lost Robes in Irving's chest in the Circle Tower.


2) Leliana ABF Tweaks: a modular customization of Armor of the Black Fox (required). The customization includes:

2.1) ABF Integration: The Armor of the Black Fox (ABF) is now in Marjolaine's chest in Denerim. Moreover, Marjolaine will be equipped with her Marjolaine's Recurve (bow) which is not anymore in the chest.

2.2) ABF exposed abs:The ABF chest now has exposed abdomen (no chain) to give some sensual appearance. I removed also the painted underpants. Moreover, I added a new normal map with muscular abs and a belly piercing (in "z_optional_abs"). Beware that the belly piercing works only in HF model. If you want a standard flat abdomen with no piercing, delete "z_optional_abs" folder. The models in "z_optional_abs" are based on tmp7704 human female seductress model. In the optional files you can find a normal map with less muscular abs if you prefer it.

2.3) ABF Restriction: the Armor of the Black Fox is restricted to Leliana, to give her a unique look.

----------------------------------------------

Optional files:

Custom Wynne morph: A variant (and my favorite) for Wynne face morph file to have her always wearing her jewels also in dialogue. Replace the morph file based on vanilla face that come with Hoods (for the girls) main file and Wynne Redesign with this one.
Requirements: You need Wynne Redesign for working.

Morrigan Possession Mask: A replacement for Morrigan "Hood of Possession" including a freaky mask (ID: 250). Main mod file is needed. Extract to your override folder after the main file and replace files if asked. Better normal map for the mask added. In the last version I added glow eyes to the mask to give a menacing effect and adjusted the diffuse map. if you do not want the glowing eyes, remove the folder "z_glow_maps".

Leliana Fox Mask: A replacement for Leliana "Hood of the Black Fox" including a fox mask. Main mod file is needed. Extract to your override folder after the main file and replace files if asked.

Morrigan's Hood and Helmet of the Witch (DAI hair): Same Morrigan's Hood and Helmet of the Witch as in the main file, but with her Inquisition (DAI) hairstyle. Main mod file is needed. Extract to your override folder after the main file and replace files if asked.
Requirements: You need Risibisi Look Hair! - Inquisition Edition for working. If you do plan to use Risibisi DAI Hairs for your companions, you just need the following files from that archive:
"pn_har_DAI.mao"
"uh_har_DAI_Hairtexture.tga"

Surana Mage Robe Tweaks: From a request of Crypto217. Customized stats for Surana Mage Robe, to make it more suited for Wynne. Correctly restricted to Human and Elf females only. Extract the files to your override directory.
For the restriction to females, I have used extracted scripts form The Phoenix Armory for Females.
Requirements: You need Surana Circle Mage Robe for working.

Wynne's Aequitarian Robe (integration):  From a request of Crypto217. The shop Wonders of Thedas in Denerim sells Wynne's Aequitarian Robes. The robe is restricted yo human female (HF). Extract the files to your override directory.
For the restriction to females, I have used extracted scripts form The Phoenix Armory for Females.
Requirements: You need Wynne's Aequitarian Robes for working.
