Suggestions for altering Peras’ and Tyriana’s attires to better reflect their actual occupations

[KevinM]

Hello, I’d like to make a small but important suggestion regarding the attire of Peras and Tyriana. At present, Peras is dressed in miner’s clothes despite being a Bardic Duelist and Tyriana is wearing a blacksmith’s apron and miner’s shoes even though she serves as the Head Scholar & Record Keeper. These outfit choices feel inconsistent with their occupations, character roles, and established lore.

Updating their attire so it better reflects their stations would be beneficial to the narrative. For example, they could be given standard appropriate clothing commonly seen throughout Skyrim. Alternatively, if resources permit, custom outfits tailored to their specific roles would be even more fitting—one designed to capture the flair of a Bardic Duelist for Peras, and another embodying the scholarly dignity of a Head Scholar & Record Keeper for Tyriana.

Valerine Henoire wears a custom-designed outfit that complements her position as an Emissary. Extending the same level of care to Peras and Tyriana would maintain consistency across the cast and help them feel equally authentic within the world.

I can see your point for Peras and Tyriana, but in Helvana's case the merchant clothes are also worn by Talsgar and Svaknir. I also think the clothes complement Helvana's hair.

Up to a point, I can see what you're going for here, OP. But frankly designating what a NPC should wear based on their occupation doesn't say immersive to me at all. The custom outfits are a good idea, but I'll bet real money they didn't happen for RL reasons: time and manpower better spent on the aspects of the Creation that matter most.
