Haru Urara in Curiosity Shop — model replacement for Deadlock
When some of her fellow Umamusume went missing, Haru Urara went to search for them and found herself in the Cursed Apple. Seeing the Curiosity shop bringing many strange customers, she volunteered to help while the shopkeeper is on an errand, hoping to gain new info and find her friends. Adds Haru Urara to the Curiosity shop with some carat decorations, complete with idle and closing animations. A Christmas version is also made and ready, but I can't check it ingame yet so I'm not uploading it for now. DISCLAIMER: The the other hero skin mods I used for the promo images are not made by me.
Compatibility
Model replacements are the first thing to break when Valve edits a skeleton, so re-check after each patch. It conflicts with any other mod replacing the same asset — two in the addons folder means whichever loads last wins, and the other one silently does nothing.
Is it safe
It is client-side: the file lives on your machine and other players see the default game. Cosmetic addons have not produced bans, but Deadlock is in active development and nothing about mods is officially supported. Keep a copy of the folder before a patch and remove it if the game stops launching.

Frequently asked questions
How do I install Haru Urara in Curiosity Shop?▾▴
.vpk into game/citadel/addons and name it pak01_dir.vpk. That folder only loads once gameinfo.gi lists it, which is a one-time edit — check the install guide.Is Haru Urara in Curiosity Shop safe to install?▾▴
.vpk is a data archive, not a program, so it cannot execute code the way an installer can. The risk is provenance. This one has 1,550 installs, so a problem would have surfaced on its GameBanana thread. Mods with almost no downloads from accounts with no history have had none of that scrutiny.Will other players see this mod?▾▴
Can I run it alongside other mods?▾▴
pak01_dir.vpk and pak02_dir.vpk installed, pak01 wins and the other does nothing.Does it still work after the latest patch?▾▴
gameinfo.gi and remove your search paths, which stops every manually installed mod at once — redo that edit and they come back. Separately, model replacements break first when Valve edits a skeleton; recolours and HUD mods usually survive. The author posts updates on the GameBanana page.Where does the download come from?▾▴
How do I remove Haru Urara in Curiosity Shop?▾▴
.vpk from game/citadel/addons, or toggle it off in the Deadlock Mod Manager library. Mods never overwrite game files, so nothing needs repairing afterwards.
