IF THE GAME CRASHES UPON LOADING A SAVE, DISABLE RAYTRACING!
This mod adds three new playable character-race options to Elden Ring. It modifies the .regbin to load new player
assets, so online play may result in punitive action. Please launch
offline using a Mod loader.
Besides lesser-human tarnished, the fates of many other races were plunged into
chaos following The Shattering. Now, you can follow four such fates:
Azula Exile
A Beastman from Farum Azula. When Serosh,
King of Beasts, was exiled together with Godfrey,
so too did many of his people become Tarnished.
Empyrean Shade
Oath-Sworn Red-Wolf Pages
who followed their Tarnished Master into exile.
"Alwin, hear your master's voice. Become Elden Lord in my place."
Serpent-Son
The offspring of a Great Serpent
raised by kind missionaries
far outside the Lands Between.
Night Shade
A Baleful Shadow inculcated in
the art of assassination;
a silent executor of the Two Fingers.
HOW TO ACCESS CHARACTERS WITHIN THIS MOD:
1. Open the "Base Template" menu in the character creator
2. Select one of the three new options (Empyrean Shade, Azula Exile, Serpent-Son)
3. You are now an evolutionary reject!
UPDATE!
-1.51 Compatibility patch for Shadow of the Erdtree
-1.5 All beast-races now have Flame of Frenzy options. These can be selected from the "Base Bone Structure" menu.
-1.4 New rework for serpent-born race: template options are now divided into two types:
"Draconic" (No feathers, scales / frills)
"Raptor" (Feathers + downy fuzz + quills)
-Serpent-Born race now has Flame of Frenzy-eye options. These can be selected from the Face Bone Structure menu.
-New Wolven race, "Night Shades" available.
-QoL improvements to the menu / selection of characters ("Age" is now replaced with "Genealogy," the beast-race meshes can be selected from here. However, it is still highly recommended to load them from the base template menu, as the Genealogy menu will not be able to add special features like mane fur / tails.)
-improved textures and mesh for the feathers on the Serpent-Born race
-Added some "Standard" musculature options
- New face bone structure option "Rykolda" available for the Serpent-Born.
-As of 1.2, the Serpent-Born now has a Feminine body option.
-New bone structure option available for "Alwin" style head (Default hair style, smoother facial features)
-As of 1.13, the Empyrean Shade now has a Feminine body option.
-As of 1.1, The Azula Exile template now has a Feminine body option.
NOTES REGARDING 1.15 to 1.16
The problems seem to be tied to Elden Ring tripping a "corrupted save" flag if the regulation.bin is over 2300kb in size. (Lots of mods that touch the regulation.bin have been affected.)
Not a major issue though! Just make sure to grab this mod: Elden Ring Alt Saves
This turns off the flag that checks for regulation.bin filesize, fixing the corrupted save issue. (Your saves should be fine, make a backup of those if you don't want to lose character progress.)
Just make sure to empty out the save folder, then load the game vanilla with
mod engine + alt saves enabled. If you see the game is saving under the
new filetype (.cnv), then the .dll should be working. Just rename your
old save file's extension type from .sl2 to .cnv, then restore it back
to the %appdata% save folder for Elden Ring. Hopefully things should
work!
TO BE ADDED:
-Additional color palettes / style options for characters
-Helms / Headgear that appropriately fit the new characters
-Additional Feline character race, "Son of Serosh"
Known Bugs / Notes about this mod:
CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS MAY BE LIMITED.
-Correct body features can only be loaded via template selection.
-Does not work with color picker.
-Many helmets / headpieces will not look good, unfortunately. Still, they will be technically wearable.
-There may be some noticeable tail-clipping with certain capes / long flowing items.
-Some "Face Bone Structure" slots are empty, choosing one of these options will unload the mesh, making the character's head invisible.
Addendum / disclaimer: NSFW requests / Requesters will be blocked. Have some shame please :/
