📋 About This Mod

A hand? Anyone?

Even if Gale isn't with us in some dark urge playthrough, his hand is still useful!

Disclaimer: I love Gale, but this idea is too good to not make it.

What does this mod do?

Make Gale's Severed Hand into Crawling Claw Summon and it is now your helping hand!

Gale's Helping Hand has vanilla Crawling Claw stat (+ dark vision to fix self-advantage bug) and can cast several spells and cantrips. As long as you have it in your inventory, spell will be granted in your hot bar like Summon Us. Spell has short rest recharge, and I leave out some bugs to let you enjoy.

Most importantly, it has help action.

Don't forget to check out its victory animation after you win the battle. I also make custom visual for this hand to has skin color as close as Gale as possible + silver & purple rings to match with his palette.

Cantrips

  • []light[/]

    []mage hand once per long rest[/]

    Ritual Spells

    • []Enhance Leap[/]

      []Feather Fall[/]

      Spells. Each once per short rest.

      • []Invisibility[/]

        []Knock[/]

        []Enhance Ability[/]

        Need to be install before you chop off his hand.

        Installation and Uninstallation

        Download this mod and put in load order in any mod manager you have and done. Can be installed or uninstalled at any time. Make sure you dismiss the hand first.

        Notes

        For those who play non-dark urge playthough or don't want to kill him, use SE command here to spawn the hand.

        TemplateAddTo("c8fa7c2f-d34a-4b42-a4fa-c2476fab6c92", GetHostCharacter(), 1)

        Compatibility

        As far as I know, there's none unless someone also overwrites Gale's hand roottemplate.

        Special thanks to people in The Taveller's Rest for cheering me up along the mod journey, TheChickenNugget100 for mod banner, and xiphiasrex for technical help.
