I thank you so much! I will wait for your beautiful new followers!

@kpetri45 I understand your frustration. The spells allowed an NPC, whether companion or not, are defined in the actor record, so it is intrinsically linked to the NPC as a whole. To change this, would be to change the NPC itself, and thus make it an entirely new (or at least modified) companion, requiring a new entry in the Workshop. It would be a simple step to take, and I will consider releasing a version of Selmina without summoning spells. Understand that I have not modded or played Skyrim in some time, but with the re-re-re-re-re-release of the game again, this time in VR, it might be a good time to offer up an alternative. Look for it in a few days' time, as I will be busy with other matters in the short-term.

It is not aproblem of your nice mods -but all over the game I met folowers- for example Serana - who did their own game without asking the player , what he likes to do them. neither with AFD
I am alloud to forbid followers to use certain spells only add new spell. I don't understand the problems of programming - for it must be as easy to forbid spells as to add new spells. ( Sorry for my bad english but I learned it many years ago at school only)

Thank you for the praise for at least some of the mod. As to your complaint, I'm afraid that is her main purpose: to serve as a support spellcaster that uses both direct-damage and summoning spells. If you don't like this behavior, then neither of my two companions (at the date of this writing) will suit you well. You may wish to look elsewhere for a non-sumononing companion.

eine extrem gute mod wenn mir jemand verraten könnte, wie man sie davon abhalten kann ständig Beschwörungszauber zu wirken !!!! falls es etwas zu beschwören gibt mache ich dies lieber selbst!!!!
!!!!!!!!!! No conjurationspells for followers at all for ever! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol, I had no idea!
Valtarien  [author] 23 May, 2017 @ 6:23pm 
Per description, above: "It places her in the Sleeping Giant Inn, in the town of Riverwood." Yes, she is lore-friendly.
Yeazzal 22 May, 2017 @ 5:36pm 
Is this Lore friendly?
DOdol 10 May, 2017 @ 8:26am 
where to find her?
Valtarien  [author] 28 Apr, 2017 @ 2:10pm 
Sorry to all those whose comments I did not respond to in a timely fashion. I have been away from the Skyrim modding scene for quite some time, and have not checked in on the comments regularly. I'm now getting notifications when someone comments, so I know to respond. Thanks to all those who wrote to express their appreciation.

█▲Angel▲█: It has been a long time since I made this follower, but if I recall correctly, I skilled her in such a way that she would prefer magic over any physical weapon. She's a mage, after all. I never did publish a melee follower, since they all too often get in the way of my missile weapons and/or spells, and die too often by charging into the fray. Archer companions are better, though not quite as versatile as a mage, who can choose spells to target specific weaknesses in foes.
Wagon Ball Z 26 Apr, 2017 @ 1:57pm 
if you give her a sword will she use it or will she choose magic over everything else?
ShadowfireRynn 28 Jan, 2016 @ 4:35pm 
I need an expendable follower as I've lost most of mine already in game for a quest.
brwnavy47 22 May, 2015 @ 3:01pm 
Rarely use a follower but after trying Selmina I am impressed. She's great in combat and very stealthy plus she doesn't chatter like M'joll. Pretty too.

Well done. :)
skully 23 Mar, 2015 @ 11:16am 
Hi, I just completed the Forsworn Conspiracy quest, and right up to the part where I get thrown in jail, I just lose Selmina. And she's nowhere to be found.
16 Feb, 2015 @ 7:01pm 
First encountered with my character @ level 39 (using UFO, btw). I noticed her stats seemed really really low for her being @ level 39 as well (magic skills in the 28 to 39 range). Is there a chance she'd level properly once I cross to another level?

Thanks much!
Saltfred 21 Dec, 2014 @ 11:41pm 
@Valtarien or is she essential? Because then i won't have to worry
Saltfred 21 Dec, 2014 @ 11:40pm 
@Valtarien do you know the BaseID of this NPC? Because i would like to make her essential so i won't accidentaly kill her in combat (I have both Fireball and Chain Lightning which damages all enemies in an area)
Horagen81 21 Oct, 2014 @ 6:52pm 
stupid question perhaps have you read this artical about the gray face bug and how to fix it ?

http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/626710-how-to-fix-the-grey-face-npc-issue-in-esm-files/
Horagen81 21 Oct, 2014 @ 6:42pm 
hmm nope it is still there.... I have no Idea how to help you with this sorry ...
Horagen81 21 Oct, 2014 @ 6:36pm 
okay done some experimenting I have removed the "dirt to beautymark" the problem still remind but I can now export you "facegen generated data" and use it as a custom plug-in with that I do not have the bug anymore with her. but as soon as I disable it it returns.

next I will try to remove the CBBE facepark to see if that is the cause.
Horagen81 19 Oct, 2014 @ 9:44pm 
Why I ask about the Mesh and texture pack is because when I open her up in the creation kit and load up her face gen it keep giving me error. it may be because I use CBBE face pack and dirt to beautimarks
Horagen81 19 Oct, 2014 @ 9:31pm 
oh wait perhaps this youtupe video can help :)

Horagen81 19 Oct, 2014 @ 9:28pm 
waht about the texture file or the mesh make sure you are in the "Actors" tab, the ctrl+F4 thing won't work in the "all" tab.
Horagen81 19 Oct, 2014 @ 9:22pm 
that is very weird most of those I have talk to about modding almost swear by it.
Valtarien  [author] 19 Oct, 2014 @ 8:28pm 
Yes, I learned about this very early on and included the facegen files with the mod. I do not know why the bug is still present.
Horagen81 18 Oct, 2014 @ 1:36pm 
@Valtarien Have you tried supple the mod with the "facegen generated data" to avoid the grayface bug ? others have reported that it fixes the bug .
Horagen81 17 Sep, 2014 @ 9:44am 
One of my favorit followers and my wife 6 out of 10 times when I play :) her scatterbrain dialoge is usually what I fall for everytime
balloran 3 Aug, 2014 @ 1:41am 
I love this follower, works great with UFO. the only real issue i have is actually the other followers jumping into her line of fire... then blaming her for it (c;
mmonzures88 23 Jul, 2014 @ 3:44pm 
Just looking at her she seems very well balanced and she is good looking, well done cannot wait to use her once I start my new character.
ldavenport1986 7 Apr, 2014 @ 12:58am 
She's awesome! Combined with J'zargo and Mercurio (Multiple Followers Lite mod) i don't even hace to draw my bow/sword.
DeeJay 6 Jan, 2014 @ 2:41pm 
finally a follower mod that isnt a OP mod
Solus 7 Dec, 2013 @ 7:40pm 
Hey, I love this follower, so much so that I married her. But after I decided where we'd live (Lakeview Manor), she wouldn't go there. Help please?
Halcyon 13 Sep, 2013 @ 11:21am 
Does not like to use AFT (follower tweeks ) for some reason, other than that shes perfect
DocSheepdog 14 Jun, 2013 @ 3:48pm 
Beautiful follower who can kick some butt. Thanks for the awesome mod!
mycastlecellar 21 May, 2013 @ 10:16am 
Hi Valtarien; I have a few questions for you. I am just curious. OK; first off I don't know "Jack" about making or building Mods. I'm a 62 year old retired Federal Employee who can tell you a lot about Government and how to build a house or garden. That's pretty much it. LOL
So; I would ask you. Is there on "Skyrim Nexus" a way of changing the Height, Weight, and Depth of yours and other characters without messing up the Mods? I would like to make my downloaded characters more realistic. There are skinny, Husky, and Normal sized people out there in the real world and I would like to change my characters to look a little more normal without messing up the Mod. Any way I can do that? Thank you for your time.

Hello this is a great mod!
Karendrae 26 Mar, 2013 @ 1:50pm 
Just wanted to quickly hop back in and apologize >.<. This mod is working fine. I just HAPPENED to get on and install this mod not knowing someone -else- had been installing other mods on -my- comp while I wasn't around (Why I'll never understand). So, when I started the game up I didn't realize there were other possibilities for mayhap. Wasn't until I just uninstalled it 15 minutes ago that I realized there were mods in my folder I didn't recognize.

It works great. My apologies.
Valtarien  [author] 26 Mar, 2013 @ 11:40am 
To all who have posted comments since my last visit: I am currently not actively supporting this mod, since I am not playing or modding Skyrim these days. That being said, as I've indicated many times before, aside from creating a new NPC and placing her in the inn, I have not changed anything. She uses all default follower options and dialogue, thus if you have a problem with her dialogue or other similar mechanics, the problem must lie with another mod you are using (which I do not support at all).

Thank you for all of those who have given praise and well wishes. It is appreciated.
Karendrae 26 Mar, 2013 @ 9:59am 
This mod is no longer working for me.

When installed. EVERY person I talk to has the line 'Do you know any songs?' in their chat options.
IllusionsMykel 9 Jan, 2013 @ 11:33pm 
This mod is a bit old by now, will this work with Dawnguard and Hearthfire?
Nixatan 23 Oct, 2012 @ 12:35pm 
Agreed, she is ever the best :D Just wish she could have Sky hair :/
And an option for healing only, heal and destruct and just destruct in the convo?
highlanderhln 18 Oct, 2012 @ 4:00am 
Thanks, this is my best follower
apple.snowsong-voice actress 22 Sep, 2012 @ 3:53am 
Thanx! I was wanting a follower with more magic, instead of just weapon skills, and very little magick. Looking forward to trying her. :) (BTW yes, it would be nice if Bethesda would fix the CK to rid us of the greyface issue, i vote for a fix on that too)
Nytteblade 10 Sep, 2012 @ 6:04pm 
Love this mod, she is my fovorite companion next to Aela :D
vhscarpacci 21 Jul, 2012 @ 2:52pm 
I love this npc. Really, I married her. The problem is that I have not seen her since. Where did my baby go?!
Cross Cowboy 10 Jul, 2012 @ 11:18pm 
Great job on this. I enjoy her very much, except she seems to put my mage to shame as she knocks mobs everywhere haha!
Imperius Delta 18 Jun, 2012 @ 2:10am

JohnyD. 14 Jun, 2012 @ 6:01am 
what's that armor wearing selmina in that screen ??
xy00yx 4 Jun, 2012 @ 10:27pm 
I am wondering when D'archon will learn her new Conjuration and Destruction spells? I am level 26 and she is still using the same spells as the moment I hired her. (LV2)

Thank
