Transformative Elixirs 1.3.0

Inspired by games like Corruption of Champions, where you can imbibe in certain items and have your body transformed in a wide variety of ways, Transformative Elixirs adds potions to Skyrim that will modify your body when consumed.

 

Requirements

Transformative Elixirs requires the following mods:

 

• RaceMenu
• CBBE and RaceMenuMorphsCBBE 
• PapyrusUtil SE
• Address Library for SKSE Plugins
• MCM Helper

 

When building bodyslides, you should make sure you are also building morphs for your chosen preset/outfit/body. This mod will not function unless you do.

 

Transformative Elixirs should work if you have CBBE 3BBB or 3BA installed as well, though results may vary. 3BBB/3BA is not required to use this mod.

 

An MCM is included that allows you to adjust how often elixirs appear as well as the minimum and maximum transformations the mod is allowed to make. There is also a FOMOD that allows you to select whether or not you want one of the two optional "Stealth" add-ons. The regular Stealth Add-on adds more variants of all of the elixirs to the loot and merchant inventory options, so you can sometimes get a potion of health/magicka/stamina that isn't quite what it seems. The Stealth Only Add-on replaces all of the regular elixirs in loot and merchant inventories with the stealthed versions, meaning you'll no longer be able to loot or buy the regular versions of the elixirs. All of the elixirs in this mod can be crafted.

 

I have also included an ESL-flagged patch for CACO if you are using that. It should be loaded after both CACO and Transformative Elixirs.

 

The Elixirs

There are currently sixteen different elixirs you can make or find.

 

 

Alchemists will occasionally have unrefined elixirs and very rarely carry refined elixirs. Elixirs can also be looted from chests.

 

How Does It Work?

Drink an elixir, get a body part modified. Simple as that.

 

On a more technical level, each of the unrefined elixirs can affect four different RaceMenu sliders, chosen at random when you drink an elixir. Rarely it will affect two sliders, and very rarely it will affect three. An unrefined potion will never affect all four categories. If you modify your CBBE Morphs in RaceMenu, the mod will take those changes to account. By default changes are hard capped at a slider value of 2.0 for body parts and 1.3 for nipples to avoid things getting too out of hand. 

 

Depending on your chosen Bodyslide preset and other mods you have installed, this may or may not result in some slight ridiculousness. A somewhat "average" bodyslide preset is recommended as a starting point, such as the Dark Preset. Also note that if you change a CBBE Morph slider in RaceMenu after consuming an elixir, any changes made by the elixir will not be preserved.

 

Elixirs can be applied to NPCs that also use the CBBE/3BA body with the addition of a mod like Administer Potions and Poisons to Friendly NPCs.

 

The mod is lightweight in that a single script is run upon consuming the elixir and then terminated. It does not have anything running in the background and should not increase script load during gameplay.
