   There are several Snow Elf race mods on the Nexus (such as Playable Dawnguard Snow Elf Race, True Snow Elf Race, etc), but I wanted to put together my own mod using recolored and edited high res assets from the Skyrim community's wonderful modders and creators. This mod is inspired by BetrayalSeeker's Snow Elf Overhaul.

   Though long thought to be extinct, the remnants of the ancient Falmer race are emerging from their hidden underground enclaves. Some are survivors, returning to the surface after enduring thousands of years of war and constant danger. Others are but mere children, bearing witness to the light of day for the first time in their lives. But whether young or old, these Falmer walk the hostile land of Skyrim knowing that they are the last of their kind, and that every step could be their last.

* Adds craftable Ancient Falmer weapons to the leveled lists (loot, enemy inventories, etc) and the world
[/font][list]
[*][font=Arial]- only Snow Elf player characters can forge them at the start of the game... but if for some reason you're not playing a Snow Elf while this mod is installed, you can find a book in the Inner Sanctum at the Chapel of Auriel that'll teach you how to craft Ancient Falmer weapons and armor. This book is also useful to Snow Elves, as it gives them perks that further buffs their Ancient Falmer weapons and armor.[/font]
[*][font=Arial]- the are equivalent in damage to Ebony weapons[/font]
[*][font=Arial]- includes Ancient Falmer arrows, swords, axes, maces, daggers, battleaxes, warhammers, and greatswords[/font]
[*][font=Arial]- they can be crafted at a forge and improved at grindstones [/font]
[*][font=Arial]- they require the same materials to craft as Glass weapons, but with an additional requirement of Mammoth Tusks [/font]
[*][font=Arial]- replaces all Elven weapons found in the Forgotten Vale with Ancient Falmer weapons[/font]
[*][font=Arial]- Ancient Falmer weapons are (supposed to be) rare, and can only be found on Falmer, Falmer loot/treasure chests, places where Falmer reside, and in the Forgotten Vale (including the Temple of Auri'el. [/font]
[*][font=Arial]- they have a rather low drop rate, ranging between 10-25%. I might lower this even more with further testing.[/font]
[*][font=Arial]- Enchanted variants of Ancient Falmer weapons can also be found[/font]
[/list][font=Arial]   
[b][img]https://i.imgur.com/ZWPTHlw.png[/img]
[/b]The Ancient Falmer Armor pieces are now craftable! They are categorized as 'Ivory Glass Material' and as such are only craftable by Snow Elves. Non-Snow Elf players can find a book that teaches them how to make Ancient Falmer armor during the Dawnguard questline, and can still acquire a full set at the end of Dawnguard.[/font][list]
[*][font=Arial]- they require the same materials as Glass armor, but with an additional requirement of Mammoth Tusks [/font]

[img]https://i.imgur.com/k32iUVE.png[/img]
[/b][/font][b]Valrysa[/b] (Spellsword)
[size=1][spoiler][/size]
Valrysa is a young Falmer, born less than a century ago. Growing up, she honed her innate, natural skills with magic, melting and shattering her foes with a deadly mix of destructive sorcery and brutal close combat. Life beneath the earth is a precarious one, with monsters lurking in every shadow. Many times has an over the head swing with her trusty mace saved her life in close combat when her spells proved too slow to cast. Once, however, a feral Falmer slashed through her guard and across her cheek, leaving a scar that she now hides carefully with her platinum blonde hair. Ever since then, Valrysa became determined to perfect her skills with her magic and her mace, and is never content with settling for second best. 
Valrysa had never seen or felt the light of the sun upon her skin until she stepped out into the surface world. Spurred onward by her youthful pride and a lust for action and adventure, Valrysa was eager to venture forth into  Skyrim and leave her mark on the history books in the land her ancestors once called home. Valrysa is skilled in magical ranged combat, and isn't afraid to enter a bloody melee with her frost-enchanted Ivory Glass mace, Leyaser.
[/spoiler]
[b]Ashian[/b] (Assassin)
[size=1][spoiler][/size]
Ashian is a truly ancient Falmer. Having witnessed and survived both the Atmoran Conquests of Skyrim and his people's enslavement by the Dwemer, Ashian has seen all that the world could offer - for better or for worse. He carries with him the horrors he saw and committed in his long life, knowing that they will forever haunt him for as long as he lived. But those memories have not stopped him from living. In the centuries he spent underground, he grew accustomed to that neigh fruitless, brutal life. After being hunted for so long by both his devolved brethren and the Dwemer machines that patrol Skyrim's underworld he learned how to hunt them, and became exceptionally skilled at stalking unseen and loosing magical arrows from the darkness. When Ashian emerged unto the outside world, he was filled with great relief. After all he had seen and all that he had done, he was finally glad that he could put that darkness behind him and start anew.
Although he looks forward to brighter, sunnier days, he has no qualms with plunging back into the darkness beneath the earth to slay the monsters that had tormented him and his people for so long. Ashian wields the ancient Ivory Glass witch-hunting bow, Leshasea, and prefers to strike from a distance.
[/spoiler]
[b]NOTES[/b]
[size=1][spoiler][/size]* Right now neither of the two followers have any unique dialogue options or voices. I have no idea how to make either of those, and as it stands, I'm far too busy IRL to learn how. Eventually, I would like to have add more depth to these followers.
* I intend on fleshing out this mod more when I have the time to learn how to script spellcasting and make combat packages. I originally wanted Ashian to be a Witchhunter, who summons Atronachs and uses Illusion spells against enemies. Unfortunately NPC's don't cast these kinds of spells on their own... much to my frustration. 
* Ashian (and probably Valrysa) will equip a Hunting Bow when first recruited. This is a bug that all custom followers have. You will need to remove the bow from his inventory, or he won't use his own weapons. You only need to do this once. I can't fix this without breaking every follower mod out there, so manually removing that stupid Hunting Bow from his inventory ingame is the only way around this bug (thanks Bethesda)[/spoiler]

[b][u]BASHED PATCHES:[/u][/b]
[color=#ffff00]If you installed any optional compatibility patches, or if you are using any mods that modify the game's leveled lists [/color](such as weapon/armor mods Immersive Weapons and Immersive Armors) [color=#f1c232]I [b][i]HIGHLY [/i][/b]recommend that you run [/color][url=https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/1840/][b]Wrye Bash[/b][/url] and build a [b][color=#ffff00]Bashed Patch[/color][/b]. 
You will find advanced instructions on how to build a Bashed Patch here: [url=http://wiki.step-project.com/Bashed_Patch][b]STEP GUIDE: Bashed Patch[/b].[/url]
[b]However, if you want to just do what I do and only merge Leveled Lists (which is what is only really necessary) then follow my instructions below:[/b]
1. Open Wrye Bash.
2. Right click Bashed Patch, 0.esp, and click Rebuild Patch
3. Uncheck EVERY box in the window that pops up, EXCEPT Leveled Lists
4. Click Build Patch
5. Done!
Building a [b]Bashed Patch[/b] will resolve many plugin conflicts, including those that you may encounter with this mod. 
My mod adds weapons to the vanilla leveled lists, and without a Bashed Patch, you may never see any Ivory Glass weapons in Falmer loot.

[b][u][size=4]UPDATING:
[/size][/u][/b][size=1][spoiler][/size]
I aim to provide updates and bugfixes for this mod when I am able. These updates should not break your save, however, there are some steps you should take to make sure your character's traits are updated properly. 

[color=#f1c232][b]Standard Updating Procedure
[/b][/color]
[color=#f1c232]This is the standard updating procedure for 1.1.7 and above, unless specifically stated otherwise.
[/color]
- Hit Tilde ~ to open the console, type in 'showracemenu' (without quotes) and press enter
- You will now be in the RaceMenu Screen. Make any changes you want (you don't need to) and press R to save and finish
- You should see on the top left of your screen: [i]"Ancient Falmer perks and spells have been added successfully."[/i]
- Done!
[b][color=#f1c232]Advanced Updating Procedure
[/color][/b]
[color=#f1c232]WARNING! If you are updating from any version lower than 1.1.7 [/color][u][b][color=#ffd966]TO[/color][/b][/u][color=#f1c232] 1.1.7, you MUST follow the updating procedure below. You will NOT get the new Restoration skill bonus unless you follow this procedure:
[/color]
- Hit Tilde ~ to open the console, type in 'showracemenu' (without the quotes) and press enter
- You will now be in the RaceMenu Screen. If you are using the RaceMenu mod or ECE, I suggest that you save a character preset of your current character before continuing 
- Change your character's race to any other race 
- Press R and confirm your changes, and return to the game. You should see the message at the top left of the screen: [i]"Ancient Falmer perks and spells have been removed successfully"[/i]
- Open the console a second time, and enter RaceMenu again
- Change your character back to a Snow Elf, load your the character preset you saved
- Press R and confirm your changes, and return to the game. You should see a message on the top left of your screen: [i]"Ancient Falmer perks and spells have been added successfully."[/i] Your new skill bonuses should be applied, and the Smite ability should be in your spellbook

You may also need to rebuild your Bashed Patch if I update the leveled lists, but I will let you know if you need to.

[list][*]- Some face texture mods may be incompatible with the snow elf body texture, and may make your face discolored or brighter than the rest of your body. I recommend that you use a face texture mod that is compatible with Demoniac Skin (which is what snow elves use), such as Mature Female Textures[/spoiler]

[b][u]USING YOUR OWN TEXTURES

[b]TEXTURES:[/b]
If you want to use your own custom textures to fit your custom body meshes, all you need to do is replace this mod's textures with yours.
Simply drag and drop your textures (such as femalebody_1.dds, femalebody_0.dds, etc) into the following folder:
...\Snow Elf Race - The Ancient Falmer\Textures\[b]snow elf

1: Make sure that when you installed RaceCompatibility that you also installed USKPOverride (if you are using USLEEP).

2: Make sure you checked Better Vampires/Sacrosanct when you installed RaceCompatibility. 

3: Make sure you are also loading RaceCompatibilityUSKPOverride.esp and the Better Vampires and Sacrosanct .esp's in the right order. See the Load Order section of the Installation guide for instructions.[/spoiler]

[b]Reprise killed me! Why?[/b]
[b][spoiler][/b]
Reprise damages you when its triggered. Luckily for you, Reprise buffs your Restoration skill, so you can use the last few seconds of Reprise to quickly heal yourself back up to full.[/spoiler]

[b][spoiler][/b]
Then don't play it.[/spoiler]

[b]My male snow elves have holes in their crotches![/b]
[b][spoiler][/b]
You are missing the Snow Elf SOS Plugin. You need both SOS/SOS Light and the Snow Elf SOS Plugin if you want your male snow elves to have genitals.

If you have the Snow Elf SOS Plugin installed, and your Snow Elf males still have holes in their crotches, you may need to [i]manually-apply [/i]their schlongs. Make sure to apply the Snow Elf schlong.[/spoiler]

[b]I'm using CBBE and there's some weird stretching going on my female snow elves' breasts! [/b]
or
[b]I'm using CBBE and my female snow elves' nipples are weird looking![/b]
[b][spoiler][/b]
The snow elf female textures are only compatible with Curvy body presets. If you are using a Slim body preset, snow elf females will look odd. You can replace their textures with your Slim body textures if you want by following the Customization guide above.[/spoiler] 

[b]The vanilla beards are clipping into my male snow elf's face![/b]
[b][spoiler][/b]
You need to install [url=https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/24273]Ethereal Elven Overhaul[/url] and the [url=https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/73909/]EEO USLEEP Update[/url] by Sakr3d. This mod uses Nuska's elven headmorphs, which are incompatible with vanilla beards. Without Ethereal Elven Overhaul's beard tweaks and the USLEEP update, most vanilla beards will clip through the faces of male snow elves.[/spoiler]

[b]Do NPC's refer to me as a snow elf ingame?[/b]
[b][spoiler][/b]
No. That would not be possible unless I edited every dialogue option that refers to you by race, and I don't want to do that.[/spoiler]

[b]Can you share your Snow Elf Follower face presets?[/b]
[b][spoiler][/b]
No.[/spoiler]

[b]Can you make a Requiem Patch?[/b]
or
[b]Can you make a patch for [Insert Overhaul Here][/b]

[size=1][spoiler]
Old Changelogs:[spoiler][/size]
[b][Version 1.0.0][/b]
[size=1]Initial release[/size]
[b][Version 1.1.0][/b]
[size=1]* Icy Fury Perk was not actually being applied. I fixed my perk application script to actually do this.
* Snow Elf Vampires should be the same height as regular Snow Elves now
* Snow Elves now have a 50% vulnerability to fire
[list]
[*]- consequently, if you are a Snow Elf Vampire with Stage 4 Vampirism, you will have a 100% vulnerability to Fire Damage, a 100% resistance to Frost Damage, and a 150% resistance to Poison Damage
[/list]* Updated Snow Elves’ Resist Frost and Poison descriptions to be more immersive and consistent in wording
* The Vanilla Snow Elf Race (Gelebor and Vyrthur’s race) are now around the same height as Snow Elf players
* Hostile Falmer NPC’s and Snow Elf NPC’s now have the exact same resistances and weaknesses as Snow Elf players
[list]
[*]- this means Gelebor and Vyrthur now have the same resistances and weaknesses as you
[*]- note that Vyrthur is a vampire, so his resistance and vulnerabilities will be equivalent to that of a Snow Elf Vampire player 
[/list]* Updated Ancient Falmer Knowledge - Icy Fury’s description.The ability increases the damage of your Frost Magic by 25%, but the description said it was 5%. This has been corrected to 25%.
* Ivory Glass Arrows now do 20 base damage.  
* Snow Elf body, hand, head, and eye textures have been moved to \Snow Elf Race - The Ancient Falmer…\Textures\snow elf
* Snow Elf females now use facial complexions from Mature Skin Complexion
[/size][b][Version 1.1.1][/b]
[size=1]* Lowered charge up time for Icy Ternion to 0.5 seconds
* Reprise now does 20 damage per second and restores all your magica and stamina rather than 100 points of each
* Added default light yellow skin tone (resembles Altmer skin, but lighter and kinda bluish)
* Vulnerability to fire reduced from 50% to 25%. I did this because I kept getting melted by fire mages and dragons, and I figured that since fighting dragons is pretty central to the game's main quest, you shouldn't get one-shotted by them for being a snow elf.
[/size][b][Version 1.1.2][/b]
[size=1]* Gave vanilla Snow Elves the Reprise ability[/size]
[/font][list]
[*][font=Arial][size=1]- this means when you fight Vyrthur, he'll use Reprise when his health gets low enough... consequently this will make him more dangerous in combat[/size][/font]
[*][font=Arial][size=1]- I have yet to actually combat test him in the actual Dawnguard questline so please report any bugs you find[/size][/font]
[*][font=Arial][size=1]- Vyrthur already has a Frostcloak spell, so it might look like he's using Reprise above 50% health, when actually he's just using Frostcloak[/size][/font]
[/list][font=Arial][size=1]   * Tweaked vanilla Snow Elf and Falmer resistances and weaknesses to be the same levels as player Snow Elves[/size]
[/font][list]
[*][font=Arial][size=1]- thus Vyrthur and all hostile Falmer NPC's will have 50% frost resistance, 50% poison resistance, and 25% fire weakness [/size][/font]
[*][font=Arial][size=1]- Vyrthur is a vampire, so these resistances and weaknesses stack on top of his vampire traits[/size][/font]
[*][font=Arial][size=1]- consequently, he will be (near) impervious to frost damage and poison damage, but will take 75% more damage from fire attacks[/size][/font]
[/list][font=Arial][size=1]   * Fixed Gelebor and Vyrthur's body textures [/size]
[/font][list]
[*][font=Arial][size=1]- they shouldn't be missing textures anymore[/size][/font]
[/list][font=Arial][size=1]   * Fixed Gelebor and Vyrthur's face textures[/size]
[/font][list]
[*][font=Arial][size=1]- their faces should be the same color as the rest of their body now[/size][/font]
[/list][font=Arial][size=1]   * Fixed female Snow Elf first person hand mesh[/size]
[/font][list]
[*][font=Arial][size=1]- hand textures should not be missing in first person when wielding weapons anymore[/size][/font]
[/list][font=Arial][size=1]   * Edited textures for males and females to make their nipples darker... lol[/size]
[/font][list]
[*][font=Arial][size=1]- prior to this edit their nipples were near or at the same color as the rest of their body hahahahaha[/size][/font]
[/list][font=Arial][size=1]   * Swapped the non-HDT CBBE female textures with the CBBE HDT COSIO textures, because I couldn't darken the color of the non-HDT textures' nipples properly[/size]
[size=1]* Male Veteran's Skin-derived textures are now in 4k quality[/size]
[/font][list]
[*][font=Arial][size=1]- Male Skysight Skin-derived textures are still in 4k[/size][/font]
[/list][font=Arial]
[b][Version 1.1.2.1][/b]
[size=1]* Icy Ternion is now an Apprentice level Destruction spell, and is thus affected by the Apprentice Destruction perk[/size]
[b][Version 1.1.3][/b]
[size=1][color=#f1c232]* Finished my Snow Elf Follower plugin!!! [/color]
[list]
[*]- this plugin adds Valrysa and Ashian, the two Snow Elves seen in the gallery above. 
[*]- Valrysa is a Spellsword, and Ashian is a Witchhunter.
[*]- this plugin requires the [b][u]SG Hairs Pack and Apachii Male Hairs [/u][/b]
[/list]* This mod is now packaged in a convenient FOMOD Installer 
[list]
[*]- If there is something wrong with the installer, or my instructions (they might be confusing...) PLEASE LET ME KNOW ASAP!!!!
[*]- I didn't include the Better Males Non-SOS patch in the installer because I really don't like that mod
[/list]* Updated COSIO mesh to v4.0
* Changed Non-HDT CBBE mesh to CBBE Curvy
[list]
[*]- In previous versions, the Non-HDT CBBE body mesh in this mod used the Slim Preset, while its textures were meant to be used with the Curvy Preset. This caused strange warping/bulging of the breasts due to the incorrect texture being used. This is now fixed, and the Non-HDT CBBE body should look normal with its textures, now.
[/list][/size][size=1]* Added in new enchanted Ancient Falmer Ivory Glass weapons
[/size][list]
[*][size=1]- includes Shock, Magicka Damage, Sun Damage (new), and Icy Soul (new) enchantments[/size]
[*][size=1]- Ivory Glass weapons enchanted with Sun Damage are functionally equivalent to Dawnguard Rune Axes[/size]
[*][size=1]- Ivory Glass weapons enchanted with Icy Souls both Soul Trap enemies and deal Frost damage, similar to the Fiery Souls enchantment in the base game.[/size]
[*][size=1]- The Icy Souls Enchantment can only be found on Ivory Glass Daggers.[/size]
[/list][size=1]* The new enchanted Ivory Glass weapons can now be looted off Falmer or found in Falmer chests too. 
* The drop rates for both enchanted and non-enchanted Ivory Glass weapons are now slightly higher (by about 10%)
* Some Falmer enemies should be guaranteed to drop both enchanted and non-enchanted Ivory Glass weapons, or wield them, or both
* Some Falmer chests are guaranteed to hold both enchanted and non-enchanted Ivory Glass weapons
* Vyrthur now wields an Ancient Falmer Ivory Glass Dagger of Icy Souls
* Vyrthur now has Snow Elf Perks too. In previous updates, I gave him the same resistances and abilities that Snow Elf players have. Now, he also has their same perks, namely the Armor and Weapon set buffs, as well as the Icy Fury 
[list]
[*]- this means he should be even deadlier in combat
[/list][/size][/font][size=1]*Added a book that can teach non-Falmer how to craft Ivory Glass weapons and armor. I honestly don’t see the point of this, since… why would you be playing this mod if you aren’t playing a Snow Elf? But, I made the book anyway. You can find it in the Inner Sanctum inside that secret room[/size]
[size=1]* Fixed SnowElfPerkStart script so that it removes Icy Fury if you are not a Snow Elf[/size]
[b][Version 1.1.4] 
[/b][color=#f1c232][size=1]* Added an Immersive Jewelry compatibility patch.[/size][/color]
[list]
[*][size=1]- IJ alters the names and keywords of the Ancient Falmer armor set, essentially rendering the Ivory Glass Armor perk useless. This patch, which is included in the FOMOD installer as an optional plugin, fixes this, combining the Ancient Falmer armor set's  keywords and IJ's keywords. Ivory Glass Armor should work, now.[/size]
[/list][size=1]* Gave enchantment charges to all enchanted Ivory Glass weapons. Prior to this enchanted Ivory Glass weapons found in the world had no charges, and thus were essentially just unenchanted weapons.[/size]
[size=1]* Added a 10% Ivory Glass weapon damage bonus, and 10% Ivory Glass armor bonus to those who read the book 'Ivory Glass', found in the Inner Sanctum. [/size]
[list]
[*]- Initially, this only gave non-Snow Elves the Ivory Glass smithing perk, but I added the damage bonuses (Forgotten Falmer Knowledge +10% damage for Ivory Glass weapons and Ancient Falmer armor) to make it useful to non-Snow Elf players, too.
[/list][size=1]* Gave Vyrthur and Gelebor unique, named, and enchanted weapons that are slightly more powerful than the enchanted Ivory Glass weapons you can find in the leveled lists[/size]
[size=1]* Edited the flavor text and names of the magic effects applied by the Snow Elf racial perks[/size]
[size=1]* Snow Elf males now use Fine Male Face Textures' complexions[/size]
[size=1]* UUNP and UNP Snow Elf females now use the Demoniac UUNP skin. [/size]
[size=1]   - this consequently fixed the UUNP and UNP Snow Elf female's neck seams[/size]
[size=1]   - Snow Elf female faces are a lot smoother now, due to the Demoniac textures.[/size]
[size=1]* Fixed wrist and ankle seams on male Snow Elves [/size]
[color=#f1c232]* Fixed Valrysa's transparent hair bug. Her hair was missing some headparts.[/color]
[size=1]* Fixed the percentages listed in the Snow Elf perk descriptions. The weapon and armor perks increase your damage and armor rating by 20% and 25%, respectively, and their magic effects should reflect this. [/size]
[size=1]* I renamed the three tiers of enchanted Ivory Glass weapons to match their vanilla counterparts (Ivory Glass Sword of Blizzards, etc)[/size]
[size=1]* [/size][b][size=1]Reworked the Snow Elves' starting spells so that they are added to the player via script, and not by default ingame. I did this so that Ashian wouldn't spawn with Icy Ternion by default, forcing him to use that spell and not his bow. [/size][color=#f1c232][size=1]You will NEED to make sure the script re-applies all your perks/spells. Please see the 'Updating' section above for instructions on how to do that.[/size]
[/color][/b]
[size=2][b][Version 1.1.5]
[/b][/size][size=1]* Reduced Ancient Falmer Knowledge - Armor buff to 5%.[/size]
[size=1]* Reduced Forgotten Falmer Knowledge - Armor buff to 5%.[/size]
[size=1]* Reduced Ancient Falmer Knowledge - Weapons buff to 1%.[/size]
[size=1]* Reduced Forgotten Falmer Knowledge - Weapons buff to 1%.[/size]
[size=1]* Added some new instructions to the FOMOD installer, to indicate to users that they need XP32 Skeleton if they choose the SOS male body[/size]
[size=1]* Moved Snow_Elf_Race.esp to the Development folder so people wouldn't make the mistake of having both the .esp and .esm enabled...[/size]
[b][size=2][Version 1.1.6][/size][/b]
[size=1]* Added Ancient Falmer Shields and their enchanted variants to the leveled lists[/size]
[size=1]   - these shields do not count toward, or are affected by the Ancient Falmer armor set bonus[/size]
[size=1]   - these shields do not replace Auriel's Shield, but they use the same graphics (minus the special effects)[/size]
[size=1]* You can craft Ancient Falmer Shields, too[/size]
[size=1]* Added the Sacrosanct Patch[/size]
[size=1]* Added a patch that makes it so that Snow Elves can't craft Ancient Falmer Armor at the start of the game. Instead, this skill will need to be learned by reading the Ivory Glass book, which I hid in the Inner Sanctum in the Touching the Sky quest. [/size]
[size=2][b][Version 1.1.7][/b][/size]
[color=#f1c232][size=2][b][u]1) WARNING![/u] If you are using the SOS Plugin, you will need to download the new version [url=https://www.loverslab.com/files/file/4597-the-ancient-falmer-a-snow-elf-race-sos-plugin-oldrimse/](The Ancient Falmer - A Snow Elf Race SOS Plugin 1.0.1)[/url] so that the genitals textures will match the newly-colored body in the main mod's update[/b][/size][/color]

- Press R and confirm your changes, and return to the game. You should see the message at the top left of the screen: [i]"Ancient Falmer perks and spells have been removed successfully"[/i]
- Open the console a second time, and enter RaceMenu again
- Change your character back to a Snow Elf, load your the character preset you saved
- Press R and confirm your changes, and return to the game. You should see a message on the top left of your screen: [i]"Ancient Falmer perks and spells have been added successfully."[/i] Your new skill bonuses should be applied, and the Smite ability should be in your spellbook[/spoiler][/color][size=1][b]Main Mod:[/b]
* Snow Elves starting skill bonus for Alteration has been replaced with Restoration. The skill bonuses are now as follows:
- Destruction 10
- Restoration 5
- Enchanting 5
- Light Armor 5
- One Handed 5
- Archery 5
* Snow Elves now start with the Smite spell
- casts a ball of blazing light that does a moderate amount of initial damage, staggering your target, and causing them to flee while dealing lingering sunfire damage for 9 seconds
- can only damage undead
* Ivory Glass Arrows have been renamed to Ancient Falmer Arrows
* Auriel's Shield now has the Ivory Glass keyword
* Made male Snow Elves' skin lighter. This should achieve the same 'snow white' look that female Snow Elves can have if using the 'white' skin tone
[b][color=#f1c232]Follower Plugin:[/color][/b]
* Updated Valrysa's face to look like my Valrysa. Her face is more refined now and she should not look like she's scared or sad all the time (lol). This will likely be my final iteration of her. You can see pictures of her in this mod's newly-updated gallery
[color=#f1c232]SOS Plugin:[/color]
* I updated the genitals texture to match the lighter skin tone of the male body texture
* You will need to download the new version of the plugin: [url=https://www.loverslab.com/files/file/4597-the-ancient-falmer-a-snow-elf-race-sos-plugin-oldrimse/]The Ancient Falmer - A Snow Elf Race SOS Plugin 1.0.1 [/url]
[b][color=#ffd966]New Patches:[/color][/b]
* Added [color=#ffd966][b]Better Shaped Weapons patch[/b][/color] for the Ivory Glass weapons
* Added a [color=#ffd966][b]Dual Sheath Redux Patch[/b][/color] for the Ivory Glass weapons
[/size][b][Version 1.1.8]
[/b][color=#ffff00][size=1][b][u]* Please do the standard updating procedure (enter RaceMenu and exit. See the Installation>Updating section in the mod description for more info)[/u][/b][/size][/color]
[color=#ffff00]* Now requires the Dragonborn DLC[/color]
[size=1]* Snow elf and snow elf vampires now use the same headmorphs[/size]
[size=1]   - this essentially makes non vampire snow elves and vampire snow elves look the same in terms of face shape[/size]
[size=1]* Replaced snow elf headmorphs with up-to-date Ethereal Elven Overhaul headmorphs[/size]
[size=1]   - Gelebor and Vyrthur use these headmorphs too, now[/size]
[size=1]* Removed all non-snow elf complexions from snow elf vampire complexions and added default Snow Elf complexions to Snow Elf vampire race[/size]
[size=1]* Replaced Frostbite with a unique (but statistically unchanged) Frostbite spell so that the SnowElfPerkStart won't remove the vanilla Frostbite from characters when changing races[/size]
[size=1]   - you can now play non-Snow Elves and or keep this mod in your load order even when you aren't playing a snow elf without losing Frostbite every time you exit RaceMenu[/size]
[size=1]* Reprise has been reworked:[/size]
[size=1]   - it now triggers when you are below 30% HP, and restores 60HP when activated[/size]
[size=1]   - reduced the damage Reprise inflicts from 20 damage per second to 10 damage per second[/size]
[size=1]   - it now has a chance to hurl enemies off their feet, and slows those who are caught in the blizzard[/size]
[size=1]   - you now suffer moderate, lingering damage per second for 20 seconds[/size]
[size=1]   - the spell is now more powerful, but increasingly risky to use as you can die during or after it wears off if you don't take the chance to heal yourself[/size]
[color=#f1c232]* New Patch: [b][u]Castable Reprise[/u][/b][/color][size=1]   [/size]
[size=1]   - this patch replaces Reprise with a version that can be casted at will. With this patch, you will no longer need to wait till you have 30% HP for Reprise to auto-cast. However, this version of castable Reprise is much more dangerous to use as it deals more damage to the player and lasts for 25 seconds instead of 20[/size]
[color=#f1c232]* New Plugin: [b][u]Gelebor and Vyrthur Overhaul (Beta)[/u][/b][/color]
[size=1]   - this plugin overhauls Gelebor and Vrthur's appearance (see the gallery for screenshots)[/size]
[size=1]   - it will consequently overwrite any NPC overhaul/replacer that edits Gelebor and Vyrthur's appearance[/size]
[size=1]   [/size][color=#f1c232]- USE AT YOUR OWN RISK![/color][size=1] I had to change Gelebor and Vyrthur's race from the vanilla Dawnguard Snow Elves to my modded Snow Elves. I don't know what effects if any this will have on the Dawnguard questline, as I have yet to test it.[/size]
[size=1]   - What I DO know is that this plugin gives Vyrthur the Reprise ability, which will trigger when he reaches 30% HP, making him more dangerous when his health is low. It may also kill him. lol. I will see if I can fix this in the next udpate. [/size]
[color=#ffff00][size=2][b][Version 1.1.8b][/b][/size][/color]
[color=#f1c232]* [/color][b][color=#ffff00]BUGFIX[/color] [/b][color=#f1c232]- fixed Better Vampires compatibility[/color]
[size=1]   - you should be able to play as Snow Elf vampires again[/size]
[b][color=#ffff00][Snow Elf Follower Missing Dialogue Patch][/color][/b]
[b][color=#f1c232]* [/color][color=#ffff00]BUGFIX[/color][/b][color=#f1c232]- Changes Valrysa and Ashian's voices to YoungEager and EvenToned, respectively. [/color]
[size=1]   - This will give them follower dialogue and allow them to be recruited. [/size]
[size=1]   - In previous versions of this plugin, you needed Relationship Dialogue Overhaul or Vanilla Voice Expansion to recruit Valyrsa and Ashian, because they used ElfHaughty soundsets which do not by default have follower dialogue.[/size]
[size=1]   - Only install this if you installed the Snow Elf Follower Plugin in previous patches.[/size]

[b][size=2][Version 1.1.9][/size][/b]
[size=1][color=#f1c232]* Snow Elves now use whatever body mod you have installed
   - consequently, their bodies will fit and conform any armors you built in BodySlide[/color]
   - they still use their own unique texture, so there may be some mesh-texture misalignments if you aren't using a CBBE Curvy or U(UNP) body
* added KS Hairdos as a soft requirement for the Gelebor and Vyrthur Overhaul
* edited the femalehead_ridged_msn.dds to blend in with the base head texture better
   - try it out on your character: I blended the texture with the base head texture but kept the brow ridges
* Added ridged versions of the non-ridged complexions:
   - Ridged40yo, Ridged50yo, Ridged Freckles, Ridged Rough
* Added ridged versions of the male non-ridged complexions:
   - Ridged40yo, Ridged40yo Rough, Ridged50yo, Ridged Rough01, Ridged Rough02
* Snow Elf vampires now have regular Snow Elf skin tones... prior to this, they were using High Elf skin tones
* Reduced the installer size by about 21%
Follower Plugin
[color=#f1c232]* Valrysa and Ashian now use the YoungEager and EvenToned voicesets, respectively
   - this gives them follower dialogue, and allows them to be recruited[/color]
   [color=#f1c232]- previously, both NPC's used the ElfHaughty male and female voicesets, which do not by default have follower dialogue unless you have Relationship Dialogue Overhaul or Vanilla Voice Expansion installed[/color]
* SG Hairs is now a soft requirement for the follower plugin (the .esp will not load without SG Hairs)
   - requires SGHairPackBase.esm and SGHairPackAIO.esp
* Added the following perks to Ashian:
   - Overdraw 60%, Critical Shot 15%, Ranger, Power Shot, Quick Shot
* Added the following perks to Valrysa:
   - Augmented Frost 50%, Augmented Shock 25%, Deep Freeze, Disintegrate, Armsman 40%, and Novice, Apprentice, and Adept Destruction
[color=#f1c232][b]SOS Plugin Installer + SOS Light Plugin[/b][/color]
* Made a new installer that includes both the SOS Plugin and the SOS Light Plugin
* can only be downloaded at [url=https://www.loverslab.com/files/file/4597-the-ancient-falmer-a-snow-elf-race-sos-plugin/]Loverslab[/url]
* New SOS Light Plugin which includes the VectorPlexus Regular, Smurf Average, and Smurf Muscled schlongs
   - The SOS Light Plugin requires SOS Light to function[/size][size=1]

[/size][b][Version 1.2][/b]
[size=1]* CBBE/HDT and COSIO texture options now use the appropriate textures made specifically for their bodies (CBBE uses a CBBE texture now, not a COSIO texture)
* Fixed the installer and missing SkySight males textures
- choosing SkySight Skins resulted in missing textures for males
- this was because the FOMOD config wasn't pointing to the right installation folder
Snow Elf Plugin
* Added perks to Valrysa and Ashian (they don't need to unlock these perks as they level. Instead, these perks are active for them at the start of the game)
- Valrysa: Agile Defender 60%, Augmented Frost, Augmented Shock, Light Foot, Bonbreaker, Armsman 40%, Destruction Apprentice, Deep Freeze, Disintegration, Fighting Stance
- Ashian: Agile Defender 40%, Overdraw 40%, Quick Shot, Ranger, Power Shot, Light FOot, Critical Shot, Stealth 30%, Silent Roll, Silence, Muffled Movement, Atronach, Atronach Stone Perk, Armsman 20%
* Removed Frostbite and Lightning Bolt from Valrysa's spell list
* Made Valrysa's Icy Ternion ability cost less mana so she can cast it more often even at lower levels
- I did this so that she, as a snow elf, could showcase Icy Ternion instead of using vanilla spells

[/size][b][Version 1.21][/b]
[color=#ff7700]* Added Snow Elf Better Vampire Lord Transformation plugin[/color]
[color=#ff7700] - lets you keep you sexy snow elf body when changing into a vampire lord (ONLY WORKS ON FEMALES)[/color]

[font=Arial][size=2][b][Version 1.211][/b][/size][/font]
[size=1]* [/size][b]Follower Plugin[/b][size=1] now requires ApachiiHairs (the main mod) rather than ApachiiMaleHairs[/spoiler][/size]

[b][size=2][Version 1.3][/size][/b]
[size=1][b][color=#ffff00]* Overhauled Reprise![/color][/b]
- Reprise no longer auto-casts upon reaching 30% health
- Now, at 40% health, Reprise will be added to your spellbook and auto-equipped, giving players the choice to cast Reprise for 10 seconds before it is removed from their inventory
- using Reprise will make it unusable for 24 hours just like any power
- TL;DR Reprise auto-equips at 40% HP, and players have 10 seconds to use it before it disappears
- At 40% Health, time will slow briefly and you will be notified that Reprise is equipped 
- Reprise no longer damages your health - so you won't suicide yourself when you use it anymore
- Reprise now causes Overexertion, which damages your health, magicka, and stamina regeneration for 30 seconds when Reprise is used
- Radius of Reprise's ice storm is doubled
- Reprise's Ice Storm is now affected by Augmented Frost
* Smite is now affected by Novice-Master Perks, and the Regeneration perk
- Smite now turns undead up to level 30
* Smite's magicka cost is now 80 and it takes 1 second to charge
[color=#ffff00]* New power: Nova[/color]
- unleash a flash of light that hurls aside nearby undead, dealing 40 sunfire damage to them and additional 1 sunfire per second for 10 seconds, and causing them to flee.
[color=#ffff00]* New spell: Castigate[/color]
- concentrated sun fire spell that deals 10 damage per second to undead and half of that to nearby targets
* New sound FX for Reprise and Smite
* Applied MagicRestoreHealth keyword to all Snow Elf sun fire spells, and the DLC sun fire spells so that they benefit from the Regeneration perk in the Restoration tree.[/size]
