ColdSun's Visions - Kayle - Bosmer - Heartbow Ranger Captain

Overview

The Visions version of Kayle, Captain of the Heartbow Rangers.

This version differs from the old Pantheon one in a lot of ways. I have reworked all of her perks and skills, and given her a sword to fight with alongside her bow. The rest of what is new is detailed below. You can find her in Ivarstead.Features

• Bow and blade - a reworked archer who now carries a sword as well
• Summon spell - call her to your side at any time
• Marriage - fully marriable, essential, and she will not break your sneak
• New SMP hair - requires a physics mod such as FSMP
• Visions skin - Reverie Skin 1.11+ by Novelyst, with additional eyes by wammy from Eyes of Beauty Remastered
• Your body - the Visions series uses your installed body. Compatible with 3BA, BHUNP, CBBE, TBD, and UNP, and works with OBody and WetFunction
• Visions architecture - a smaller footprint and better performance

Backstory

Kayle is the captain of a secret military unit of archers known as the Heartbow Rangers. Twenty years ago they traveled from Valenwood and began quietly aiding people across Skyrim. No one truly knows their goal, though there is politics at work behind it. Years ago Kayle took a recruit under her wing and trained her in the ways of the Heartbow. That recruit was Solvi, who became one of the most skilled archers in all of Skyrim. Kayle has every skill Solvi has and then some, for as her mentor she is the stronger of the two.

Heartbow Rangers are marked by a heart tattoo beneath one eye. Kayle also bears three circles that denote her rank within the unit.Character Details

• Location - Vilemyr Inn in Ivarstead
• Class - Heartbow Ranger, an archer built for high difficulty
• Essential - she will not die on you
• Stealth friendly - she will not break your sneak
• Marriage - fully marriable

If you run mods that change location IDs, such as Great Cities of Skyrim, use AddItemMenu to get her summon scroll and call her in instead.

She is designed as a strong high-difficulty archer. If she feels too powerful, you can remove some of her perks in SSEEdit, or tune her custom perks down a little.
