Graves
The Bloodthirsty Student (Graves) — Graves skins for Deadlock
Graves got a taste of the sanguine liquid mid battle when her sentries bludgeoned a poor victim a little too close to her. She traced her tongue over it, metallic, salty, and aged like fine wine. She couldn't get enough of it. This mod is now done! Everything is fit to the concepts original idea. Enjoy Graves with a bit of a manic fixation on the red liquid stuff. :p This mod offers: Custom blood red particles Custom Icons and gloat Custom Outfit texture This mod by far is my best work, this couldn't have been done without the help of those in the modding discord. Thank you to those who had the patience and kindness to help!
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 Graves 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 The Bloodthirsty Student (Graves)?▾▴
.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 The Bloodthirsty Student (Graves) 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 4,719 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 skin?▾▴
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 The Bloodthirsty Student (Graves)?▾▴
.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.
