Skimpy Lorefriendly Armor

[SHBlade]

I am looking for some evil character/elven armors that are skimpy with similar effect to DX Necromancer Robes (Transparent)
 

Now I'd have just used the aforementioned armor but I can't make the transparency work with overlay tattoos, they just disappear under certain angles and afaik there is no fix.

Skee64.ini edit makes my whole skin pitch black.

"Skimp lore-friendly"? An oxymoron surely? ?

As you can see, the necromancer robes don't really stand out. Looks pretty natural to me, the theme and washed out colors.

 

Now if it was a metal armor, that'd be questionable since why wear metal if you aren't trying to cover your body with it?

Mysteries of Talara features a parade of prostitutes and the sermons of Vivec talks about Vivec sucking off molag bal who in turn summons a bunch of deadra that are all sucking each other off all over Morrowind. I don't think skimpy armor is really as unfriendly to elder scrolls lore as you may be jokingly assuming. ?

 

 

EDIIT: here are a few that come to mind

There is a massive selection, if anything - ive found its classy, non-skimpy stuff to be difficult to find.

Best one ive found is Book of UUNP: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/7505

There is a variety of conversions, armors range from prude to bikini armor and everything in between, come with integration into the game, they'll appear on NPCs, unique and otherwise and as quest rewards. Those outfits also feature vanilla asset mashups and vanilla textures.

Yea the difficult part is:

- it can't be just bikini armor

- has to be cloth/light armor

- has to have open thighs on one side at least to see the tattoos

- has to fit medieval/fantasy theme with dark vibe to it too

- CBBE

- I have seen pretty much everything there is on the Nexus

I really hate there still is no solution to the transparency layers bug.

For which SKSE version is this one?

All DX DeserterX armor is pretty lore friendly in my option.  Bikini armor is sort of lore friendly too if its made from a lore friendly material and have a vanilla aesthetic. Say a leather bikini, ebony, glass. dragon bone bikini is still lore friendly but pink latex bikini is definitely not lore friendly.

No idea.  I have a half dozen of these downloads, most that I have are for LE, but some may not be.

maybe something like this? No transparency, but if you like it enough you can make it transparent yourself with some mesh or texture edits.

It's nice but it looks too Asian for Skyrim to me

Looks right, must be the wrong dll for your game.  I've been using it for years, but I'm still on LE.  That version got posted here on July 2 or 3, so I assumed it was for SE, but apparently not.  I'm sure there's an SE/AE version out there somewhere, but I don't seem to have it in my archive.

For that I usually use the bikini armor mod that lets you piece together your own armor set out of parts made from normal armor in game.

[Gameplayer]

DeserterX armor

Amazing World of Bikini Armor and its expansions, pretty sure it comes in CBBE.

 

Thing is I dont do CBBE,

 

I do TBD, so I ported and made sliders for LadyHorus Tera Armor pack, which is pretty cool stuff covers a lot of build types right there.  Its actually a BIG pack too.

 

You might have to expand your search, not everything got converted to SE btw,

There are Discords, Patreons, and other sites you might have to look at.

 

And not everything has a CBBE conversion...

The armors are lore-friendly. Just not "vanilla friendly" or rather... "ESRB friendly".
Using context with the pictures I've attached, you can see the ideologies and morals of Daedra.
It's safe to say, only about half of the Daedra in existence would be wearing actual armor.  Compared to the others only wearing nipple caps in addition to something else.

That's me being generous xD
