Astarion was originally a tiefling

Just a simple tiefling, darling 💅

Fun fact: Astarion was a tiefling in the very, very early stages of development. He was an elf by the time Early Access released, but I found these cut voice lines & mocap in the game files and restored them. :P Video here

(I used The Pale Devil + Origin Mirror Unlock to tiefling-ify our vamp)

Watch me make Githstarion in 5 mins flat (Video speed 1min)

As someone who cannot really mod, and who hadn't touched Blender before a week ago, I'm super pleased with what I've come up with.

Essentially I automated the exhausting fiddly bits of the race swap necessities using Claude AI to create a python program (that I will package with my mod 'Any Way You Want It') that has two phases. One phase preps the chosen vanilla head (aka Astarion), the alongside the chosen race head and body (aka Generic Male Gith), including the ear swap - just select the models you want and click run.

Then the user (ie me!) adjusts the size of the face to fit the head/body, and runs the second phase that merges the face to the head. After that just make whatever adjustments you want (for me it was smoothing the neck, editing the ear holes, and of course shrinking the nose) to make your Githstarion (or whatever)

I could have spent another minute making a few more adjustments (and I will for the final) but this is more a proof of concept on how simple it is. Hopefully this allows people who have no modding experience to dip their toes in and make their own heads, although I will bundle premade race swaps into AWYWI for people who just want to jump right in with an existing Githstarion

I am concerned that the "seam joins" will not work on all heads, but worst case I'll turn that off and people just join the seams manually - takes another minute, easy stuff.

Many thanks to the following real modders who laid out the groundwork I was able to recreate:
Mr Bones (aka Jerinski)

Naturae Ferox - Chapter 43

Please enjoy a couple of excepts from my pride and joy fanfic I’ve been working on for the last couple of years.

Pairing: Astarion X Fem Tav

Summary:
Fen is hunted by her fate, haunted by a power she does not understand, bound in the wrath endued to her by Silvanus himself. When she falls under the spell of the rather intriguing vampire in camp, the boundaries of desire, control and autonomy blur, and she finds herself questioning everything she thought she understood of the natural order.
To survive, Fen must confront the tortures of her past, unravel the mystery of her fate, and determine whether she was chosen… or condemned.
A druid without connection. A Chosen without faith. Rage without control.
‘Save the Thousands. Break their curse. Bring them back to the Circle.’
When the God of the Wilds calls, is her destiny even hers to refuse?

Please read the tags, I BEG of you
