About This File

This mod changes some 666 generic leveled-list base NPCs from male to female. This mostly applies to guards, soldiers, commanders, bandits, the Forsworn, and necromancers, the Vigilant of Stendarr, Vampires, the Demora, the Thalmor, warlocks, and thieves.
The mod also changes all of the above listed NPCs of the animal races to more human like races, like Bretons, elves, etc.

Having tried mods like SkyFem and various leveled list feminization mods, I've found that most of these don't work for some reason, or they do work (SkyFem), but cause considerable issues and are difficult to install.

I have noticed, though, that the "Female Imperial Guards and Soldiers" mod by soulofmandalore does, in fact, work, though this mod only replaces roughly half of the imperial soldiers and guards (and none of the commanders) with females. So I decided to take a look at what this mod does differently, and quickly found out that, rather than relying on altered leveled lists, it takes a more basic and robust approach of modifying the male base actors who populate those lists.
Since I've always wanted to try out a Skyrim experience where women are in charge, with the men nearly extinct, I've decided to create my own mod using this method and replace all the male NPCs I can (with a backstory idea in mind, to later integrate the mod with the lore of my Frostbite-Clan-line of mods). Now, since this means changing each and every one of the template NPCs, what takes about two minutes each (the relevant tabs are on opposite sides of the actor window and need to be navigated between, using arrow buttons, at least two times, multiple records need to be changed, and a visual check has to be performed, and possible malformations corrected in the morph tab – this, however, has the advantage that the resulting NPCs will be somewhat better-looking than those automatically generated by Skyfem).

Enjoy!

 

Requirements:

Female Briarhearts USSEP-patched version (for versions 0.4 and higher)

Fuz Ro D-Oh – a soft requirement, but quite essential if you want to be able to read what some of the feminized NPCs are saying

Dragonborn
Hearthfires

Dawnguard

 

Compatibility:
For version 0.4, support for the non-USSEP briarheart version may one day be added (feel free to do so yourself), unfortunately, apparently the USSEP version may cause CTDs for some users.

I'm not sure, if this is compatible with LE. It will probably require an SSE optimizer sweep. I will do that at some point, when the mod is in a more finished state.

What's New in Version 0.4 [Experimental]

Released

The disfigured briarhearts with female faces and hands, but male bodies, have finally been removed using xedit.
This is all thanks to Bethesda, who in their infinite wisdom decided to change some dlls in the CK installation, co CK stopped working completely, even after applying the patcher (as the dlls seem to have been updated through CK, but are actually part of the Skyrim SE depot.  So instead of having a full day for working on API, I had about one hour, so I decided to do this.
In a stroke of luck, I have found a mod, which feminizes briarhearts quite splendidly, but does this for one half of them only, unfortunately. So I made this mod a requirement for version 0.4, and edited its leveled lists to remove the males.

Since there was no time, I am uploading this completely untested, but there is no reason why this should not work. Please, do let me know, if you get a chance to test it.
Since I do not know whether the briarheart mod suffers from the same issue my mod was suffering from, with regards to some briarheart quest, I can't tell whether this update fixed it. but given the great quality of that mod, I'm pretty sure it did.

What's New in Version 0.3

Released September 24, 2022

Added 189 more NPCs. All encounter warlocks are now included, plus a few thieves. Unless I've missed something, this pretty much concludes work on the more generic NPCs. From now on, updates will be less frequent, as they will require more work and testing.

 

What's New in Version 0.2

Released Tuesday at 08:35 PM

Added another 144 NPCs, notably the Vigilant of Stendarr, Vampires, the Demora, the Thalmor, and some others. I'm currently halfway through with warlocks.
