Packs

"Durge's Mangled Head" pack

I always felt that the Dark Urge should appear more battle-worn. The "Durge's Mangled Head" pack allows us to see more unique Dragonborns walking beneath the red eclipse. The whole idea is to make him look more like an Origin character than Tav.
Pack includes Head, CrestTop, Jaw, Chin, Tail,  Extra "Horn" slot type and assets.

Extra "Horns" slot type and assets

Mod introduces a new slot type that can be combined with existing attachments. 
With this slot type, you can also color certain keratin parts separately from Dragonborn scales.

Plain Horns
"Broken Arcuate Left", "Whole Arcuate", "Broken Arcuate Both", "Broken Arcuate Both".

"Broken Bhaal Prophecy Abyssal"
The flaming text on the right horn is wise Alaundo's prophecy about Bhaal, written in Abyssal (originally, Bhaal speaks in Common and Abyssal). The text translates as: "The lord of murder shall perish. But in his doom he shall spawn a score of mortal progeny. Chaos will be sown from their passage."

The text on the left (broken) horn represents a single word: 'Sicarius,' which means assassin or murderer. This word is used several times in the game and has a certain role in the main quest, especially for Dark Urge.

Durge is a white Dragonborn, representing the Ice primal type, ideal for players who want to build around ice damage. Ice crystals and straight lines are incorporated into his design concept, giving him a blizzard-type appearance.

Known bugs

Extra Horns slot type and assets
The horns should be used only for 'Mangled Head' and 'Head 1'.
I'm working on restricting the asset buttons from appearing for other heads. Otherwise, after some updates to the mod, you may find that the attachments disappear for heads 2, 3, and 4.
This is because each head actually has its own animation base and size, so every attachment should be created as a new, separate asset with its own properties. This is how the developers made it. Sorry for the inconvenience, I'm working on fixing it.

If you find more bugs pls let me know, I'd like to fix it =3
