This mod overhauls Serana and Valerica. I implemented the Hood in a way, that it won't cause any issues with new hair. It was a struggle, it's super annoying and was costing me a lot of nerves and non existing energy. So there's no need for a hood patch, nor do you need to worry hairclipping, not as vampire, nor healed.

Serana has new healed eyes as well. 

They use their own skins, Jewellery (unequippable) and Valerica uses her own Outfit

- ESP flagged ESL

- USSEP changes are forwarded 

- Conflicting assets are loose, to avoid blackface issues. Everything else is packed in a BSA, BC7 compressed. 

- The mod comes with a bodyslide file for Valerica's dress. It only addresses neck and wrist seams. So if you don't change your wrists from the default, you don't need to run it. If you have changed the default wrist slider settings, run the bodyslide file. Her outfit isn't meant to get used by the player. Nor do I support to change Kozakowy's amazing pieces by sliders. So this is really just simply to avoid wrist and neck seams, nothing more. 

- This mod needs to overwrite everything else. Load it last, so it overwrites any changes of the NPCs and the hood. LOAD IT LAST - on the mod panel and the plugin panel. Trust me - LOAD IT LAST! x'D Did I mention already - Load this mod LAST! x'D x'D x'D


Install with MO2 or manually. You can use Vortex, but I can't recommend that mod manager. Best not use it.


VERY IMPORTANT - Serana has her OWN scripting and AI - she can't be used with Follower Overhaul mods, you WILL break her. I REPEAT - serious Serana thinking meat damage - leave her brain alone. x'D Like.....don't do it. Don't....NOPE....don't think about it. Follower mods are made for the default follower system - NOT for unique ones like SERANA!
