Baldur’s Gate 3 Ketheric Thorm Redone: Reithwin’s Fallen Glory Mod v1.0.0.2

                    
Ketheric Thorm Redone – Reithwin’s Fallen Glory is a visual overhaul for Baldur’s Gate 3 that reimagines the general of the Absolute with a more corrupted, timeworn look tied to Myrkul’s grasp. It’s built for immersion fans who want Act 2’s mood to hit harder, with a design that matches Ketheric’s despair, decay, and ironclad resolve.
Mod features
The focus is character art direction and presentation. No stats or encounters change—just a stronger visual story for a pivotal antagonist.

Darker armor pass: Ketheric’s plate is toned and weathered to reflect devotion to Myrkul and the Absolute, reading as a fallen lord rather than a clean war hero.
Updated portrait: His in-game portrait aligns with the new model so dialogue and cutscenes feel consistent.
Corruption emphasis: Age, decay, and spiritual rot are pushed subtly across materials and tones, supporting Act 2’s bleak atmosphere.
Showcase pack: The release includes a robust image set so players can preview the look before adding it to a save.
Patch‑aligned variants: A main file for current builds, plus a Patch 7–6 version for older playthroughs.

In‑game impact and use cases
This is a pure presentation mod with big payoff in Act 2’s storytelling. Expect stronger thematic cohesion from Reithwin to Moonrise without touching balance.

Act 2 role‑play: Ketheric reads as truly gone—a man consumed by grief and duty—lending more weight to speeches, threats, and confessions.
Cutscene cohesion: The revised portrait keeps visual logic intact when bouncing between dialogue, camps, and boss moments.
Screenshot play: Photographers get moodier metal, richer shadows, and a model that suits Candle‑lit halls and pallid skylight.
New‑game‑friendly: Works smoothly on fresh campaigns or mid‑Act 2; uninstall safely to revert the look if desired.

Installation & Prerequisites
Standard BG3 mod workflow applies. Use a manager for load order control and easy enable/disable.

Grab the correct file: Choose “Reithwin’s Fallen Glory” for current patches, or the Patch 7–6 variant for older saves.
Import with BG3 Mod Manager: Add the .pak, move it to the active (left) pane, then export/load to game.
Positioning: Place after general visual/cosmetic packs to ensure the Ketheric edit wins conflicts.
Verify in game: Load an Act 2 save or start a new run to inspect portrait and model changes.

Compatibility notes

Safe uninstall: Can be removed mid‑playthrough to restore the vanilla appearance.
Conflicts: Other mods that directly alter Ketheric’s armor or portrait will need load-order consideration.
No gameplay edits: Stats, AI, and encounters remain untouched—this is visual storytelling only.
