This Skyrim mod overhauls a bunch of Khajiit to reflect Elder Scrolls lore
The Khajiit are one of the coolest races in Skyrim. Lynx-like in how they appear in the 2011 RPG and originating from the land of Elsweyr, they're known for their sneaking and melee skills, thanks to their talon-like claws. Now, a modder has made the Khajiit even greater by adding a whole lot more variety to the types that you'll encounter in Skyrim, which reflects the many different versions found in their lore.
Modder allonsywisegirl says their Project Ja-Kha'Jay - Khajiit Diversity Overhaul mod changes the appearances of some of the game's Khajiit to "add some (lore-friendly!) diversity". While there are 17 different known types of Khajiit in Elder Scrolls lore, the mod adds an extra six variants on top of the base game's one option, which - as the modder says - appears to reflect the Cathay-type Khajiit.
These include a range of types that are pretty different to the ones you might have seen in Skyrim and wider Elder Scrolls series so far. For example, there are the Ohmes, which did feature in the very first game, Arena, back in 1994. They're far more humanoid in their appearance than many of the Khajiit and they're pretty similar to the Bosmer wood elves, according to the series' lore. There are also the Ohmes-Raht, which are taller and a little more feline than their Ohmes cousins, with light fur and a long tail.
