Playable Armors

Description
Are you interested in literally playing as armors? This mod lets you do that. Upon download, armors will be added to your playable races list. The mod's esp is called Test because originally I was working on playable creatures that would not have the camera below the feet, but it failed and I did this instead. Rest assured: There should not be any issues that arrive from my original testing. If there is one, no worries! I'll fix it.

----IF I HAVE MISSED ANY ARMORS PLEASE TELL ME SO I CAN ADD THEM, SOME WERE NOT ADDED ON PURPOSE (ANY ARMOR THAT SHOWS SKIN WILL NOT BE ADDED).



---DISADVANTAGES----
Some of the Armors cannot use magic
The races doesn't work with the vanilla start.
Skin can show up if you wear certain armors.
Wearing Armor with Armor makes the race-armor disappear (i'm sure one would prefer i dont fix that part)
---ADVANTAGES AND GOOD STUFF----
You are a living piece of armor
You can use crafting and such
You can mix and match armors (make sure skin doesn't show or it will look.... odd)
You can wear circlets and such with your armor (the armors are the bodies and heads, thus making it possible)
Your health is pretty decent (Not overpowered, a certain armor race's health is pretty low though. I recommend a companion.)



Changed the Armor voices to a more ghostly voice (the voice used by ghosts and nightingales)


Please report any issues you find and I will do what I can.

This mod may NOT be uploaded anywhere else but steam unless I give permission. I put serious work into this mod and the others I have released. So please respect my work, don't upload this mod without my permission.

The thing I like, it kinda gives it a "Bedknobs and Broomsticks" sorta feel Treguna, Mekoides, Trecorum, Satis, Dee

By the way I'm not a programmer but I think I may have found a solution to the vampire problem using this mod. The Additional Vampire Races mod allows for a character to start as a vampire but they do not have the cycles of hunger until their first bite. So armor that can't bite can enjoy some of the benefits/complications of vampire without falling into the trap of being hated by everyone. You would need to find a way to merge both mods together.

Otherwise very nice.

Armor can become a vampire but they cannot bite because they don't have a mouth. So eventually they stay in the hated stage. Sneak mode does not bring up dialog to bite. Also you are considered naked to NPC's if you want to play as your default armor.

@MisterFuzzyPants:
I mean, that's kind of the point. The idea is to play as the armor, not the person who would have theoretically worn it.

If there's a head or body, I'm doing it wrong.

@alphadog Are you aware that the intresting followers mod on nexus is using one of these armors as a race for a follower and they gave you no credit.
