📋 About This Mod

June Update:

1. 5 fixes the meshes code for patch 8. Apologies that it took me this long.

The next update will be a big one adding a feature I really wanted to add since I began the mod. It will require script extender unfortunately. I won't ever take the old versions down though so your game should be safe if you are a mac user.


What is it?

This is a mod that adds items with a Lathander theme. They have been placed around the world in appropriate chests and vendors, and also in the tutorial chest.

It started with me wanting a shield to match a certain mace, then I added other things too.

Weapons and Shields

  • []3+ Shields

    []Spear

    []Restored a cut Morningstar. I gave it a new name and description, in case you have another mod that re-adds it.

    • []Half Plate Set

      []Scalemail Paladin Tabard

      []Endgame Heavy Armour set

    • []3 Circlets

      []2 Capes

      []5-6 rings and necklaces

      • []Books and notes scattered around the world to add to your roleplaying experience! All of the lore is sourced from the forgotten realms wiki, nothing completely invented, and is presented from biased perspectives. So you can simply ignore it if you don't like it.

        And More!

        • []'Idols of Lathander'. Sell it! Use it as camp decoration. Put it in that tent you don't have.

          []Starter pack for your Level 1 character in the tutorial chest.

          All armour items can be dyed. The armour and accessories are available to every race and gender combination plus Wine and Revelry Satyr race, with a few exceptions- the circlets don't work for Dragonborn female or strong tieflings. I am limited by what meshes are available in the game files. The halfplate looks odd on females or some other races also.

          The stats for the equippables are largely geared towards life or light Clerics and Paladins, with a sunlight and anti undead theme.

          Each item's gold prices have been set by the game's own method of generating costs, so they should be consistent with the game's usual pricing of similar items.

          A certain shield is equippable only by Lathander worshippers, to make you feel a little bit more of a special sunflower. All other items can be worn by anybody.


          Where is it?

          The items have been placed around the world in chests and vendors. I have placed things with an effort towards immersion, so weaponsmiths only have weapons, booksellers only have books and so on.

          All the items are also in the tutorial chest. If you have passed the tutorial chest, you can use a mod like this or this or this to access the chest.

          There is a 'master chest' in the tutorial chest, which contai
