Katia Race v2.5
IMPORTANT:
---For the Vanilla, UNP, and CBBE .zips, use ONLY one
---The 'Follower' plugin adds a follower to the Bannered Mare
---The 'Default Skeletons' plugin reverts all racial features to use Skyrim's default skeletons (or whatever you have installed). Don't use this unless you REALLY need it.
---The 'No Birthsign' plugin will remove the Atronach birthsign and the extra spells

Description:
This mod adds a custom race with fully animated headparts. A follower plugin is included. You'll find her in the Bannered Mare.
An optional 'Default Skeletons' plugin is included for compatibility purposes. Please keep in mind that using it will disable helmet fitting and ear lagbones.
Vampirism is supported, though becoming a vampire will turn your character's fur grey. A default skintone has to be selected for Skyrim's vampirism morphs to work, so I picked grey. You can see an example in the screenshots.

Animation Swap:
Inside your spell/powers menu you will find two lesser powers: Animation Swap (RGA) and (PCEA). RGA stands for 'Reversed Gender Animations', which will swap your animations between male and female. PCEA stands for 'Player Character Exclusive Animations' which are animations exclusive to the player. Proper use of PCEA involves installing both the actual PCEA mod and FNIS (links below). If you don't have PCEA and FNIS installed, this mod will swtich you to a set of vanilla animations included in this mod's BSA (this is to prevent crashes). To swap back to your default set of animations, simply use the Animation Swap power again.
