Demons are very different across different cultures, but one thing that keeps popping up is demonic horns.
This mod by Volvaga0 makes it easy to make your character look like a hellspawn by having them grow a pair of demonic horns. They can even be on fire!
Players looking to make a divine character will also appreciate the fine variety of fancy halos included by the mod.
Much like the flaming horns, there’s a “Fallen Halo” variant that sets the floating circlet ablaze – which would actually look fantastic on a fallen angel.
You’ve got the horns, the eyes, the follower… you’re just a couple steps from becoming a full-fledged demon!
That said, unless you want to be some low-ranking demon who needs to haunt a kid’s closet or the underside of their bed to stay tethered to the mortal plane, you’ll need an ominous temple hideout.
This Daedric Castle is just the thing you need.
It’s built and furnished in the style of the ancient Cyrodiilic Ayleids, but with a notorious demonic tinge.
The bright red crystals evoke the sight of flowing blood, there are paintings of Oblivion planes on the walls, and Oblivion banners fly wherever appropriate.
Demonhood isn’t about how you look or where you live – it’s about your actions.
Even the average kid in Skyrim can cut down a man in just a few swings of a sword. So just killing innocent people isn’t going to cut it.
You need to go hard.
One great way to leave mortals speechless is through Dukkha’s Forbidden Death Magic, which lets your character detonate their victims, disintegrate them until only ashes are left, or even tear the flesh from their bones.
Anime where the main character gets transported to another world is practically a dime a dozen these days.
But some of those isekai series are really worth a watch – Overlord among them.
This unique series follows an average salaryman who gets trapped in a video game and decides he’ll conquer the world under the identity of Ainz Ooal Gown – a powerful Lich.
Creator Mrx16 clearly loves the series, and they crafted a magnificent Skyrim mod that lets you live the life of Ainz Ooal Gown.
There’s an all-new Lich race, a new skill tree, tons of new spells, and much, much more.
Even if you don’t choose to play as a skeleton, having your own personal dungeon and all of these new evil spells and minions is simply ideal for the up-and-coming demon.
