Cat's Mushroom Armor

Description
Mushroom Armor

Welcome!
After many I present you, Mushroom Armor! Well its not exactly armor but in Kenshi you take what you can get. This armor is more of an infection than armor and it really doubles as a handicap than a helper. A parasitic plant that growns on its host.

Whats Included?
So per the usual I modeled, textured, and weight painted several new assets for kenshi.

I tried making all the models lore friendly, while sticking to kenshis parameters to not cause lag. I am also using 2K textures for all pieces.

Warning
all item pieces act as slave gear in functionality. They can not simply be removed once equipped and depending on the item may be very hard to get off. This is to simulate a parasite like infection, its no as easy as cutting chains, their growths on the body.

item
stats
Mushroom Head
These mushrooms cover the entire head. There are 2 variations but both offer great protection at the cost of perception and are very hard to remove
Mushroom Head Sprouts
Covers the head in shrooms, they dont offer much protection but minus perception, easier to remove
Mushroom Stages Late
These cover the body and feet (legs) and offer some protection but cause a decrease in mobility and are hard to remove
Mushroom Stages Early
These cover the body and feet (legs) again but dont offer protection and the minus's are reduced, easier to remove

To obtain these items either craft them under the new research tab called "Mushroom Armor" and crafted in clothing stations



Lore Friendly
This mod was made with the swamp environment in mind. The swamp is known for being dangerous and full of diseases and now it can be. These mushrooms act as a parasite within the swamp. People who stay in the swamp for extended periods can contract the parasite and once that happens its hard to remove. The shrooms will grow on the host draining their nutrients until it takes complete control. The only way to remove them is through cutting or using a lock pick as a scalpel and remove the infection.

Questions?
Q. What ref did you use?
A. I used a mix of real life visuals, concept art like above, other games like elden ring, and some of my imagination.

Q.Why isnt anyone else wearing these?
A. Not everyone likes mods that add leveled list items for compatibility reasons with their massive load orders. This should be avoid that. However I do plan on doing a total overhaul of clothes and plan to implement them when its ready

:meadowfrog: It's so freakin' pretty~
Are you planning on doing different variants? (like brown and white mushrooms) or maybe something like a floral edition?? :Glow_Tulip:
or adjusting it to fit The Hive race for example better (Mostly the head pieces) :beeped:

@Moss thanks, @ Zagrad yes the mushroom is not included in the overhaul mod

Okay, these a really cute btw~

Scared the crap outta me with the slave thing though :Nervous_Elk:
I just didn't read the page fully as i just skimmed through because I saw "Mushroom Armour" and my brain went to butterflies :LIS_butterfly:

Guess I'll have to download this independently! Now I can have a canon way to explain why my recruited prisoners follow me so loyally...

Hi!
Please tell me, is your mod mushroom armor, in order to get it, you must craft it?
So NPCs don't wear mushroom armor?
And in your latest global fashion Cat's Clothing Overhaul, is there no mushroom armor?
Thanks!

Oh man, was wondering why I wasnt seeing fungus people, I liked having them around

It's a shame, the concept is awesome. Anyway, thanks :steamthumbsup::beeped:
NPC  [author] 6 May, 2023 @ 11:11am 
@Lanzcron, no this is not included because of complaints
Lanzcron 6 May, 2023 @ 10:49am 
Is this mod integrated (faction) in the new overhaul or just in the obsolete one? :beeped:
Uno 28 Dec, 2022 @ 10:26pm 
Do you think its possible that you could make these standalone mods have the functions of the big "Clothing Overhaul" mod?
Example being; This one adds the bandit faction- in case someone JUST wants the mushrooms / bandits without anything else?
I believe your Mercenary Armor mod does this; gives it to people in the world without having to grab the giant overhaul mod that combines them- allowing people to pick and choose.
