About this mod

- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
- Donations
Now includes Lacey as a Custom Standalone Follower option if you prefer not to replace Lydia. Perks and abilities kindly put together by ff7legend.
Quote from ff7legend:
"I made Lacey a jack-of-all trades sans magic. Meaning she is effective in One-handed (Dual Wield-capable), Two-handed, Archery, Heavy Armor, Light Armor, Block, & Sneak. This means it will be left up to each individual user as to how they wish to utilize Lacey in terms of combat. She has the appropriate Offsets & set to level with the player indefinitely. No level cap whatsoever. Hope everyone enjoys Lacey given the way I set her up..."
Want her as a Racemenu Preset instead?
Lydia/Lacey Preset
Location for Lacey
Lacey can be found in Vilemyr Inn, Ivarstead.
Details
This mod will replace only the appearance of Lydia, the Housecarl of Whiterun. No changes to stats have been made!
OR
Use Lacey, a custom standalone follower instead.
Both use your body meshes and textures, so should be compatible with all the various body types across Nexus.
Main Files
2 Main Files.
One replaces Lydia and contains the necessary files required.

Optional Files
These optional files REMOVES the war paint, as I know war paint isn't always wanted.
Make sure you install the main file first (either Lydia or Lacey) - THEN the optional file which matches the main file you chose. Overwrite main file when prompted.

Installation
Recommended Installation

When using Lydia Replacer, put towards the bottom of your load order, or at least below any other mods that would potentially alter Lydia's appearance, such as the awesome Bijin Warmaidens.
