Gooooooood morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Fredas the 8th of Sun's Dusk and a crisp predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons have set, the paths are closed, and it is once again time for this one to tend the inn for our most honored guests. Excuse please while the fires are stoked, and fresh water is brought to a boil...

Our brew of the day is Stockholm Lungo, and the biscuits are Oatmeal cranberry. Checking the hot sheets we have an eclectic mix of 60 new mods. Let's see what catches the eye of an old cat over a fresh cuppa or three

ExpensiveLadder released No Flame Atronach Explosion
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133409
Your game your way. Personally I always thought the other elementals should also explode on death. (Ice shards and lightning) seeing as the summoned life force can no longer contain the elemental's power. Thanks you milk drinker LOL

Mehrunes Dagon Unique Shrine - Heads Replacer SE by Xtudo
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133386
Patches Skeever's new unique shrine mod to use Mandragorasprouts' heads. Check the requirements, there are several. Looks good. Thanks

Eudalus released a leveled list object swapper framework and patch hub
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Euda ... ameId=1704
This is more of a modders resource, for batch insertion and removal of level list entries in specified lists. powerful, and could be useful. It remains to be seen if it gets adopted. Dangerous if misused like any good tool. Thanks

knightradiant2 released Switch Thy Forests Up
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133367
"Switch Thy Forests Up (S.T.F.U.) aims to create truly unique forests from the Reach to the Soul Cairn. Revitalize your forests with the power of Base Object Swapper!"

Will require patches from Nature of the Wildlands if needed in your LO, the author mentions the odd floating tree as inevitable with this mod, but the old cat has to admit, the idea that every time you load a new game, the forests are 'different'. There's a lot to be said for that. Thanks, have a cookie. Now fix the floating trees.

And finally our spam of the day...

destructor36 released 'SUMMER' ... and 18 mods that use it
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/dest ... ameId=1704

You'll have to look through this mess on your own. It reads like a combat settings modpack but at least the author kept them modular so you only have to use the ones you want. What I noticed looking through them is the mechanics are not fully considered.

IE: Aimshake while aiming a crossbow? Crossbows do not require stamina to hold, only to draw. Your game your way, Not for old cats, but thanks

And that will do for today. The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept. Have a seat and the wenches will serve you. We-B-Open!

Gooooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Sundas the 10th of Sun's Dusk and another quiet predawn at the inn. The blessed moons have set and it is once again time for this one to stoke the fires and bring fresh water to the boil...

Our brew of the day is from Indonesia, and the biscuits will be Oatmeal sour cherry in a little while. The ovens are preheating. Checking the hot sheets we have 37 new mods with plenty of jiggles, and patches. Let's see what catches the eye of an old cat over a fresh cuppa...

EnderBro777 ported Fine Goods from Morrowind by felroki as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133556
"adds items from Solstheim to Brand-Shei's merchant inventory and stall display."

The old cat's been using Morrowind imports SE since 2017 which also includes Revyn Sadri and the New Gnisis Cornerclub, but we love choice so thanks.

TheRanger324 released More Wash Basins for Vanilla Homes and Taverns
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133610
"Adds a wash basin to every vanilla home and tavern that did not already have one." Not the first, but thanks. Some of the locations are better than others, but all in all a nice second mod. Have a cookie.

i329 released Torches Candlelight And Simple Wearable Lanterns Remastered
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133600
"A lightweight and dynamic lantern, candlelight, and torch mod made to work with Simple Wearable Lanterns - Remastered." also Requires CID and SPID. This is a follow up to their first mod a few weeks ago. Nice choice for integration. Thanks.

Scrabx3 released three custom console buffs today
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Scra ... ameId=1704
Too early for old cats to delve into custom commands, Test with caution as always.

anbeegod returns with Follower Dialogue Expansion - Borgakh the Steel Heart
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133571
"Expands Borgakh the Steel Heart with 200 immersive, lore-friendly lines. Fully voiced. Quest and environment awareness." Thanks, these are well done, but it bothers the old cat that the author has removed all references to using an AI voice from all of their dialog expansion mods. Already almost 1300 downloads, and 80 endorsements.

And finally, Let's close on a high note.

ALT - Riften Well by Yuril
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133616
"Alternative version of the Riften Well. No ESP " An interesting look, The seams between the four sections are visible, and all that beam work and no crank and bucket... Still it looks good and we love choice. Thanks

And that will do for today. The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and there are dragons to hunt. Enjoy the day. We-B-open!

Gooooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Morndas the 11th of Sun's Dusk and a crisp predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons have set and it's time for this one to once again tend the inn for our most honored guests. Excues please while the fires are stoked and fresh water is brought to a boil...

Our brew of the day is Inspirazione a Napoli, and the biscuits will have to wait on the markets a little later. Checking the hot sheets we have 51 new with lots of jiggles. Let's see what catches the eyes of an old cat over a fresh cuppa.

littlehand6 released Just Another Breezehome as a first mod. welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133638
Not terrible, Not follower or kid friendly, but cozy if a little spartan. Includes just enough noobishness in the basement to be a first mod ;-) Thanks, another for the pile.

marijn191 released Saviik's Solitude Overhaul
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133645
"Overhauls the city of Solitude into a cheap Novigrad knock-off by adding more buildings." Nothing an old cat would consider. Cramped empty buildings and mismatched stone work... but your game your way. Thanks

Gonzeh - Stonehills ReRe-imagined
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133572
"My second take on Stonehills. How I pictured it."

Not poking, we love choice, but the little cookie cutter 'A frames' reminds this old cat of vacation homes in the Poconos. (Pennsylvania ski country) Thanks, worth a look. CRF was more of a village.

markuskarttunen1 released Ratway Well Consistefyer
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133630
"Riften plaza well is connected to the ratway below, in theory. With this mod, the wellhole actually looks like the well above, finally making Skyrim immersive." (If it was only that easy ) Consistefyer... Interesting word. Interesting that the 'well' doesn't connect to water in Riften, but then it never made sense in Vanilla either. Thanks

Striker6600 released Witcher Hedges in Whiterun
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133639
"Added some hedges to the Whiterun tree circle." Seems a bit crowded at first glance, but oddly fitting surrounding the tree. Includes patches for seasons of Skyrim. Worth a look, and a cookie. Should be pretty with Gildergleem regrown. Thanks

And finally... Shekhinaga released Considerate Followers
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133659
"Considerate Followers is a small mod with a huge impact for those of us who love to travel with companions - it stops followers from speaking while you are in dialogue or you are watching someone else speak." It's an SKSE plugin, and already has one reported crash that is being worked on, but this will be a huge benefit once the odd bug is ironed out.

And that will do for today. The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept. Have a seat by the fires and warm your bones. We-B-Open!

Goooooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Tirdas the 12th of Sun's Dawn and a quiet predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons wax through the final crescents and will be gibbous on Turdas and full on Fredas so it's time to hone and oil those silver weapons once again. Excuse please while the fires are stoked, and fresh water is brought to a boil...

Our brew of the day is Roma, and the biscuits are chocolate chip. Checking the hot sheets we have 40 new with plenty of jiggles, and patches. Let's see what catches the eye of an old cat over a fresh cuppa.

LvxMagick's - Craftable Lockpick's .ESL
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133706
Like so many others before... Only this one is ESL. Thanks

JerryYOJ released Better(Bulk) Enchanting
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133701
Removes the enchant item message box, and keeps your enchantment and soul gem selection. Ah'vrie thinks if you need to spam enchanting to level your skills in the early game, this will be a very useful mod. Thanks have a cookie

Checking the real estate market...

Pnubs released Havardr
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133137
Another utterly ridiculous castle. Perfect if you like getting lost in your house trying to find the bathroom. Room for you and everyone else Not for old cats, but it looks like they had fun, and that's all that matters.

aaofyi released Desolate Point
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133721
"Tired of having to kill everyone you meet Skyrim? Don't intend on getting to the cloud district very often? Victim of a sweet role theft? Send them to Desolate Point to rot away without a fair trial. Desolate Point is an underground prison built on the northeastern shores of Skyrim, constructed around an abandoned dwarven arena."

words fail. Moving right along

TheLastAkaviri531 released Wonderful World of Sheogorath
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133689
An NPC overhaul for the Mind of madness quest. Worth a look, only covers the principal three actors. Two eye options for Uncle Sheo

We'll finish up today with something different for the old cat. This one doesn't usually cover magic spell mods as... well they're almost as common as jiggles, but this one the old cat likes.

Magicka Vortex Spell - An Anti-Magic Cloak Spell by IQ88
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133753
"A cloak spell which completely saps nearby enemies of their Magicka. ESL-flagged."

That, is refreshing. Unfortunately it's only offered as a master level spell which totally ruins the appeal. This mod truly needs an apprentice level variant, that can be beefed up with additional perks as the player progresses through the game. Of course the usefulness would be felt most by a melee / stealth character as you have to get close enough for the cloak to have an effect, and the majority of magic is ranged attack based, but it's really nice to see something that's actually new. This one gets a cookie

And that will do for today. The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept. Have a seat by the fires and warm your bones. We-B-Open!

Gooooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Middas the 13th of Sun's Dusk and a chilly predawn here on warm sands. Keep those silver weapons close, the blessed moons are full in two days, and the goddess' crazy puppies will be out making all kinds of mischief again. Anyway, it is time for this one to tend the inn. Excuse please while the fires are stoked, and fresh water is brought to a boil...

Our brew of the day is Arpeggio Lungo, and the biscuits are Tate's lemon cookies. Checking the hot sheets we have 35 new. Let's see what catches the eye over a fresh cuppa.

melchizedek92 released Deadly Precision - Bullseye Perk Replacer as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133809
"This mod replaces the Bullseye perk with a critical damage boost" The old cat never liked or takes that perk either. For the old cat it's not about being OP, it's annoying that the first shot drops the enemy and you have to wait for the paralysis to wear off before you can take the second shot if needed. Interesting first mod. This one Ah'vrie might use. Thanks, tracking

Acook1e released Key Logic Expansion as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133785
"KLE extends Vanilla's key map and makes a custom key input which can make you use a key set by yourself to control values, spells, events, animations."

This would require serious testing, and comes with a warning. Not for old cats

SpookySylv released Dark Moon-Lunaris over Silent Moons as a first mod. welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133812
"replaces the lackluster Silent Moons Enchantment in Vanilla Skyrim with one based from the Lunaris spell pack made by Darenii"

Well the silent moons enchantment is pretty lame LOL. This seems fairly complete and well thought out. Requires the original spell pack. Thanks.

vladpaul97 released three first mods today. Welcome
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/vlad ... ameId=1704
All of them remove vanilla meshes, to be honest the old cat has no idea what to overall purpose is, your game 'no way'? Moving right along

DXvMX released DX - Enhanced urn as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133758
" replaces standard urns in the game and adds several varied options, making loot more interesting and unique" Several sizes, several colors, uses BOS. What's not to like. A definite improvement over vanilla. Thanks, have a cookie. Tracking

noha7ers released Remove Arrow and Bolt Trail VFX
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133764
"Small mod that removes all the VFX of the arrows and bolts" The old cat can't fault the thinking here LOL Arrows are swift, but not hypersonic Have a cookie

Kittytail released Healing VFX Edit
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133774
"New healing spells and potions visual effects!" Watch the included video. Keeps the vanilla flavor, but more subtle. Worth a look, this one gets a cookie

And finally Malacath's Chosen - An Orc Furniture Replacer by sothasimp
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133717
"Is your longhouse cursed with drab decor? Shake things up with new Malacath-approved orc furnishings, guaranteed to assert strength and intimidate rival tribes. Mid-poly with a mix of 2k and 4k textures."

Love the heavy wood construction, we are talking Orcs after all. Not thrilled with the use of mammoth and horker tusks everywhere, and there is some obvious clipping even in the included pictures. Worth a look. The old cat would probably use it if it wasn't for the tusks. Your game your way. Thanks

And that will do for today. The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are... Don't drop your food. Where did Ah'vrie put that mop. We-B-Open!

Goooooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Turdas the 14th of Sun's Dusk and a quiet predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons will be gibbous tonight so keep those silver weapons honed and close. Anyway, it is time once again for this one to tend the inn. Excuse please while the fires are stoked and fresh water is brought to a boil...

Our brew of the day is Roma, and the biscuits are Tate's Ginger Zingers. Checking the hot sheets we have 38 new with the usual mix of jiggles, dangles, patches and pointy sticks. Let's see what catches the eye of an old cat over a fresh cuppa... maybe two.

AdventTalon released Better Currencies as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133883
"Changes the names and values of several coins from popular currency mods to more immersive versions that interact better with each other." This is a WIP patching of multiple currency mods. Currently only Coins of Tamriel, and Foreign currency.

Sorry, dozed off. So many have tried to fix this over the years LOL. Call this a currency patch hub. Good luck. Your game your way.

LockedNLoaded2 ported Accessible Merchant Storage by ObsidianFire as a first mod Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133871
"I am reuploading a conversion of it for SE since I couldn't find one" AccessibleMerchantStorage brings the merchant chests into the shops so you can steal from them. Master locked but you can steel the merchants stock and gold, then wait a few days and sell it all back to them. Your game your way.

sirjesto ported Fortress Restoration SE by BioManF
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133866
"A simple restoration of all 10 main forts across the nine holds" Basically fixes crumbling walls and towers and removes some of the makeshift barricades. This one the old cat might consider. You'd expect an occupied fort to be maintained. Thanks.

TheLootist released two today. A resource pack, and the first of the 'Reimperialized' series
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/TheL ... ameId=1704
These look to turn the old forts into something more medieval. Your game your way. Pass

Grimus4 released Skyforge Arms and Armor Additions and Enhanced
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133896
"Skyforge Arms and Armor Additions and Enhanced with greater damage overall, new skyforge variant of the plate armor and skyforge arrows" You'll want to read the mod page. Puts Skyforged weapons (and newly added armor) at just under ebony. All weapons now ignore 50% of armor and does +5% damage. It does weigh more and cost 3x vanilla now. Definitely more OP, but it also makes becoming a Companion more valuable. Your game your way. Thanks

Lets see... TB's HD Wicker Basket
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133863
"A replacer for some of the baskets of Skyrim with up to 8K textures" The old cat really likes this new model, right down to the use of two traditional weaving patterns and the laced in feet. They do need a better normal map to accentuate the wicker more. But the shape and execution is beautiful. This one gets a cookie.

DementedLulu released Imperator - Lulu's Tullius and Rikke Replacer
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133832
"This is a replacer for General Tullius and Legate Rikke. It will use your own skin textures but as usual I am using BnP and recommend it. Rikke also has two hairstyles that will change if she is in battle or not."

She also released Lord and Lady of Coldharbour which fell through the cracks yesterday
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133778
Both are worth a look. We love choice.

IamWiitz released Conditional Armor Type Animations for Sneak
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133680
"Complements Verolevi's Conditional Armor Type Animations, but now giving the same style for sneaking. Changes the player and NPCs animations depending on their armor type (heavy armor, light armor, non-armored)."

Requires no animations mods, it does require OAR. It will not work with DAR. Some assembly required, including true directional movement. Provides separate conditional animations based on gender and armor. Make sure you understand the requirements, this is mainly for people that play in third person. Thanks

nyphani released Unique Voice for Sinding
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133875
"Gives Sinding a unique voice type!" Yes it's AI generated. Edited and compiled with many retakes. Includes patches for Authentic Sinding Follower, and gives him is own framework.

You'll want to listen to the included video. It bothers me how good this sounds. well edited

We'll finish up with Favour of the Daedric Royalty by SilverLous
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133889
"This mods adds Skills that show your Devotion to Daedric Princes with appropriate perks" It only covers three of the princes. It needs to be it's own galaxy not mingled with the skill trees, and it need some form of worship as well. (Which I posted in the comments)

Interesting concept... needs fleshing out. The mod page does not mention the actual perks... call it a work in progress. Tracking more out of curiosity than to add it. Thanks

And that will do for today. The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept. Have a seat and the wenches will serve you. We-B-Open!

Gooooooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. it is Fredas the 15th of Sun's Dusk and thank the divines the weekend in nigh. The blessed moons were full last night, and Ah'vrie would recommend keeping those silver weapons close at hand for a few days yes he would. Remember you come in here smelling of wet dog and you'll taste the old cat's silver mace. Anyway, enough of the goddess' crazy puppies, it is time once again for this one to tend the inn. Excuse please while the fires are stoked and fresh water is brought to a boil...

Our brew of the day is classic Ristretto, and the biscuits are Sweet Loren's sugar cookies. Checking the hot sheets we have 49 new from the usual suspects. Let's see what catches the eye of an old cat over a fresh cuppa...

kvskvs6 released Sprint Speed Multiplier as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133904
"A simple sprint speed multiplier. ESL Flagged." Thanks you my googly challenged friend. We'll add it to the pile with all the others. Thanks

TheShiningAbsol released 4 today.
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/TheS ... ameId=1704
Three are for summoning buxom spriggans and flame atronachs, and one is a patch to let you adopt Anise' cat after you off the old witch. Fair enough. Thanks

JamesTParker released two today for the Dawnguard DLC
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Jame ... ameId=1704
Sorine has more bolts to sell, and Valerica can make her potions after being rescued

SKYKLF released Immersive Traitors Post
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133918
"slightly overhauls the Traitors Post" It does look a little more lived in. Unfortunately they also fixed a broken wall that the old cat loved to snipe through to tease the baddies. Oh well. Worth a look, the improvements are subtle. Thanks

Jyzzrly released Skwatters of Skyrim
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133933
"Upon purchasing any of the properties for sale in Skyrim, be prepared to clear out the criminal scum" Meh, your game your way, but f you know their there it's not much of a surprise. Big bad dovakin beating up on defenseless beggars... the shame. Your game your way, Not my game, not my way ;-)

We'll finish up with one by HalfbitShirlock

Sleep is Good
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133920
"Now, you will want to tuck your little Dovahkiin in for bed time! In addition to the vanilla experience boost, sleeping will now boost your stats. These buffs have the same duration and scale with the vanilla rested bonuses to better reward the player for sleeping regularly, using inns, buying homes, and marrying spouses."

You'll want to read the page. Buffs are a tad OP but not obscene. These buffs would make a huge difference in the early game. Worth considering. Thanks.

And that will do for today. Nothing really jumps out as a mod of the day, but they can't all be winners. The fires are stoked yada yada Enjoy the day. We-B-Open!

Goooooooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Loredas the 16th of Sun's Dusk, and wage slaves rejoice the weekend has arrived. It's a crisp and quiet predawn here on warm sands, and once again time for Ah'vrie to tend the inn for our most honored guests. Excuse please while the ash pits are emptied, the vents are cleaned, and the fires rebuilt. The weekend deserves happy fires, and a happy fire needs to breathe. You may want to cover your tankards for a bit. This can get a might dusty, and Khajiit know not from free refills... There, much better no? Ah'vries mother used to say a happy fire warms more than the room. He misses her yes he does. Now to scrub the kettles, check the garden, and bring fresh water to the boil...

Our brew of the day is from Indonesia, and the biscuits are chocolate chip for now, we'll be baking fresh when the old cat returns from the markets a little later. Checling the hot sheets we have 46 new with plenty of jiggles, dangles, patches, and pointy sticks. Let's see what catches the eye of an old cat over a fresh cuppa today shall we?

Achronos11 released three first SSE mods today. Welcome
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Achr ... ameId=1704
Taproot, spider eggs, and falmer ear retextures. All three are a noticeable improvement and seriously worth a look. The spider eggs also come in three colors green yellow and red.

Nicely done, but a missed opportunity. The eggs should have included a frosty blue as well so you could set up BOS to have green for normal spiders, and blue for the frosty ones.

nymphetta released No More Rumbling in Dwemer Dungeons as her first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134001
"Couldn't find a mod for this, so I made a quicky to get rid of that annoying rumbling in Dwemer dungeons and figured I'd share" Thanks, it only silences ambient machine noise. The old cat might give this a go in his next build. Silence can be very spooky. Thanks

Vanlevor released Muffled Barefoot Footsteps Extended as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133968
"Barefoot Footstep Extended patch for consistency with mods that silence footsteps with the muffle magic effect." Intended for use with Quiet Muffle Footsteps For Player, or Muffled Footsteps Expansion. See a need... Thanks

runesentinel released Better Bloody Notes
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133970
"Changes the bloody note texture to something more readable. No ESP, just textures :)"
A bit less bloody, and definitely more readable. Not quite as gory, but a worthy trade off. Thanks, this one gets a cookie.

Dmigra released 4 NPC Spell variance patches using KID
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Dmig ... ameId=1704
Three for Dawnguard mods, and one for Dragon age spells redux. Thanks

And finally Neloth's Ring of Tracking by Ave
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133912
The replacer also Includes a purchasable version from Fethis. Left and right variations in two gem and four metal colors. She's still the best by far. Nice to see her releasing new work. Instant download and a cookie.

And that will do for today. The fresh ale casks were delivered last night, and the new batch of mead is ready so drink up. We're serving medallions of marinated venison on a bed of roast diced potatoes and caramelized onions served with a poached egg on top for the early meal, and the old cat has dry aged wolf chops in a tart jazbay sauce to be serves with sauteed carrots and twice baked garlic potatoes for the late meal. As always there will be a hearty stew simmering for those that prefer something more substantial.

The fires are stoked, the kettles are scrubbed, and the floors are swept and mopped. Have a seat by the fires and warm your bones. We-B-Open!

Gooooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Sundas the 17th of Sun's Dusk, and another peaceful predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons have set and it is once again time for this one to tend the inn for our most honored guests. Excuse please while the fires are stoked, and fresh water is brought to a boil...

Our brew of the day is Miami espresso, and the biscuits are Sweet Loren's chocolate chunk. Checking the hot sheets we have 54 new, mostly patches and accessories today. Let's see what catches the eye over a fresh cuppa or three.

We'll begin with a few face lifts...

Diplomatic Immunity - Lulu's Blades Elenwen and Malborn Replacer
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134129
"This is a replacer for the Blades, Elenwen and Malborn" Not the old cat's favorite overhaul, but taste is subjective. Delphine is a bit young, and Esbern looks a bit like a medieval monk. Your game your way. Thanks, we love choice

TheLastAkaviri531 released The Way of the Voice - Greybeard NPC Overhaul
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133993
This one's interesting. it does give all four of them a unique appearance, the tattoos are an interesting touch. There is an unhooded option in the fomod, but again with the monk hair? Your game your way LOL. Thanks

CinnaMewRoll released A Cat's Life Animation Overhaul (OAR)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134078
"New animations for ACL kitties, such as animated meows, and also aggression." She does love her fuzzies, so with the puppies done, it's equal time for kitties. Thanks

And now we come to the fashion mod(s) of the day... Sound the trumpets

Common Clothing Expansion by Hornclonic
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134088
"This mod adds new lore friendly clothing to the game." The old cat is unsure if these are actually lore friendly. Or rather they look more Witcher3 lore friendly, but the mod gives us 4 unisex common outfits that are quite nicely done, and not slooty. Refreshing, and definitely worth a look, and not only to old cats...

Common Clothing Expansion - CBBE 3BA by Imperial2000

"CBBE 3BA Uniboob conversion for the superb Common Clothing Expansion."

Common Clothing Expansion - Vanilla Farm Clothes Replacer by HalfbitShirlock
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134143
"Replaces the vanilla farm clothes with models from Common Clothing Expansion using Skypatcher. Includes male and female clothing with optional alternate textures. Original mod files required."

I'm sure we'll see other replacers that don't require skypatcher for a common texture swap

And that will do for today. The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept. Have a seat and the wenches will serve you. We-B-Open!

Gooooooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Morndas the 18th of Sun's Dusk and wage slaves lament, the weekend she is over. The blessed moons have set. the paths are closed, and it is once again time for the old cat to tend the inn. Excuse please while the fires are stoked, and fresh water is brought to a boil...

Our brew of the day is Inspirazione a Napoli, and the biscuits are Sweet Loren's sugar cookies. Checking the hot sheets we have 53 new with plenty of jiggles, and as many patches. Let's see what catches the eye that doesn't have a cup size...

Kladoss released Soul Vessel as a first mod. welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134268
Sooo, if you use soul trap on an enemy successfully with or without a soul gem, you get a soul 'token' in your inventory. You can then use the 'consume soul token' power to slightly buff a selected ability, or collect the tokens to craft filled soul gems...

Well it's nothing if not inventive. Probably not for old cats but have a cookie, thanks.

NuumLock released Craftable Lunar Weapons as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134223
"This mod makes Lunar weapons craftable by replacing the standard forge in Silent Moons Camp." It only affects the forge at Silent Moons camp, and only works at night. Unfortunately it also only has recipes for iron and steel... Now if you could empower any weapon you have the ability to forge, it really might be worth it. Thanks

shpeenut released Changed Moons Size - Double reduction SE as a first mod Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134210
"Nirn moons is so big, so i made my first mod: a plugin that reduces their size by half."

let's see... Azureroth released another simple cheat chest as their second mod
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134215
Start your game with enchanted carved nordic armor and a one handed sword. The chest is just outside Riverwood Thanks

illonara released Replace That Face Brelyna as her second mod.
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134205
"This mod replaces Brelyna Maryon. I could not set on one particular look for her, so i decided to share with you different options" Hair and eye options available. Thanks

RRBrown released SnowKyne Hall
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134246
"SnowKyne Hall is a Player Home that was recently abandoned by a disgraced Skaal seeking his redemption." Another lore friendly tiny home. This one near the Skall village on Solsteim. This could come in handy for an alternate start. Thanks have a cookie

sirjesto released Warbound - Unique Horse
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134234
"Warbound is a battle-ready stallion found in Riverwood by the lumber mill.
He is essential, invulnerable, and if you kill him by riding him off a cliff, he respawns."

Ah, a cheat chest with hooves. Well it beats walking to Whiterun anyway. Thanks

Lets finish up with Ballin - Lulu's Lore-Friendly Balgruuf Replacer
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134181
"This is a replacer for Jarl Balgruuf the Greater. I had issue with a lot of replacers not really looking like Balgruuf so i wanted to keep him close to vanilla" She definitely kept the vanilla look. Not especially fond of the nose, but he looks good. Thanks

And that will do for today. The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept. Have a seat by the fires and warm your bones. We-B-Open!
