Masked Mustachio's Lady Rakarth

Description
My wife and I are considering playing a Dark Elf Campaign with the latest update and she really likes the idea of Rakarth so I made this mod to change his gender to a female.

This mod might not be for you and that is okay. I wouldn't use it for myself since I like to play male characters, but this is a mod for people like my wife who want to play as a girl. It wasn't made to be some rule 63 thing just for kicks.

Her campaign and battle voice is the female dreadlord

Her in game model is based on Morathi's head on Rakarth's body. This allowed me to simplify my mod significantly since I did not have to change any in-game animations like I did in earlier versions of the Mod.

The only reason I was able to use Rakarth's body instead of the female dreadlord (in original versions of this mod) is because of the work that h3ro put into AssetEditor. He does seriously great work that enables a lot more modding power than was previously possible.

I did not change her campaign diplomacy voice since it comes up so rarely when playing as her that it wasn't worth the effort at this moment. I might change that in the future but it requires modding in Terry which is the worst thing ever.

I also left the quest related sound in since I would rather have some story about why the fight is happening than have no voice at all. Same thing as diplomacy though, it doesn't happen enough for me to put much effort into at the moment.

Other than the revoice and reskin and rename she is not any different than Rakarth.

Compatibility: In order for the voice to "stick" to any starting lord or hero a mod MUST include start position data. It is a really stupid programming decision by CA but it is what it is. Because of this, this mod requires a new campaign and NO other start position mods such as Mixu and whatnot. It is annoying, I know, but don't blame me for the weird choices of programming.

Check out my other mods I made here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/id/lumparoo/myworkshopfiles/?appid=594570

If you want to use more than one of my gender swaps at a time please use this combined mod since you cannot do more than one at a time due to start_pos tables being used. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2391207303

Also please rate my mods so that they can get rated and noticed by other players with similar interests. I do really appreciate it.

@maskedMustachio Not sure what's up but both the Rakarth and Imrik mods crash my game, all the rest of yours work fine.

I will be adding her to the combined mod as soon as I get the chance.

Just a head's up I managed to change over Rakartha's body to match that of Rakarth. This enabled me to use the animations they use for Rakarth and just better match what I wanted out of this mod. Hope you like the changes as much as I do.

Ah yes I have been kicking that around for a bit. The issue I have is that I like Imrik's style and want to preserve it but can't manage to edit any female bodies in a way that preserves his overall style. Just be aware I am definitely trying to get something that I like for Imrik since so many people have asked for it.
