ESCP - Bosmer

Also available on GitHub[github.com]

Adds in the Bosmer race using Humanoid Alien Race Framework, as well as three factions. Do note that this mod assumes that you own all of the expansions, but should work fine without any. You may notice some stats changes not taking affect if you don't own certain expansions.

---

An elven race most often found inhabiting deep woods. Adult Bosmer are often mistaken for children, whilst younger Bosmer are sometimes mistaken for goblins. Bosmer have a rather high-pitched voice that makes listening to them somewhat painful, possibly an adaptation to deter potential predators.

It is best not to underestimate the strength of a Bosmer. Though their size may make them seem weak or fragile, they are actually quite competent in melee combat, possessing strength similar to that of humans. Even ignoring their strength, Bosmer are very nimble. Whilst they may not be a pushover in melee combat, they are uncontested in ranged. A well trained Bosmer will never miss a shot.

Wardens of the Forest:

This mod includes three Bosmer factions: Kingdom, Green Pact, and Savages. Each fulfilling one of the standard vanilla faction archetypes.

Settlement preference:

• All Bosmer factions prefer to settle in forested regions.

Gimmicks:

• Bosmer factions may use beast masters in raids, specialised pawns that arrive with tame animals.

---

• A style is added, with custom ritual effects.
  
• A new ideology origin is included, which unlocks a new Bosmer specific animal specialist role.

---

• Children born from a Bosmer mother will be born a Bosmer.
  
• Children born from a Bosmer father will inherit the 'Bosmer Blood' gene, but only if the child is not a Bosmer.
  
• Additionally, children born of a Bosmer father will inherit the 'Mer Blood' gene, but only if the child is not a Mer.

Skin and hair colour genes are disabled.
HAR colour channels are just easier to use, and offer more functionality. This does mean that individuals of this race do not appear to be 'baseliner',

Xenotypes are enabled.
This race can be given xenotypes, however do note the above. Impids, and similar, will still use the normal skin colours.

---

There are no starting scenarios?
No, you can modify any scenario, and switch the faction to one of the Bosmer ones.

The non-player factions are just tribal?
Yes, they will be made fancier whenever Bosmer Armoury is released.

Where'd 1.3 support go?
Scroll to the bottom of the description, your answer is there.

Does this work with Combat Extended?
No idea. I don't use it, and don't expect I ever will. Please don't ask me, and instead direct your questions to the people that actually work on that mod. That way you actually get an answer instead of a snarky response.

Why still use HAR? Biotech exists you know.
1 - HAR is free.
2 - HAR offers more to mod creators.
3 - Biotech xenotypes are fundamentally still human, and not in a philosophical way. This goes back to point 2.

I've made a significant number of changes updating to 1.4, and the races have basically been remade scratch.

Because of this the races are no longer compatible with 1.3. If you want to stay on 1.3 then you can grab the final 1.3 version from the github pages. You'll also want the final 1.3 version of Race Tools, to ensure nothing is broken. I'll link the final versions on the respective race pages.
