TSM Unhand Those Gloves!
Version: 1. 0

File under: how is it that no-one fixed this before?

Requirements:

Dragon Age: Origins

Description + Details:
=================
The Ceremonial Armored Gloves are a very rare drop from several NPCs, but not guaranteed from any of them.
This file should guarantee the drop from the Assassin Leader in the Forest Stream random encounter - he already had the gloves in his inventory, and, as they are not equipped, it seems logical that they were intended as loot.
=================
To Install:
=================
Place the tsm_ceremonial_gloves folder in the game's manual override directory, i.e. \Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age\packages\core\override.
=================
To Uninstall:
=================
Delete the tsm_ceremonial_gloves folder.
=================
Known Issues:
=================
Will conflict with any other mod changing ran409cr_assasin_leader.utc.
Must be installed prior to entering the Forest Stream random encounter map. And of course you have to kill the Assassin Leader... no mercy, or no gloves.
=================
Notes and blather:
=================
The random encounter used by the mod only occurs as a part of Leliana's personal quest. If she has not been recruited or playing through her personal quest is undesirable, the gloves can be obtained with a different mod: ceremonial heavy glove FIX adds the gloves (and several other difficult to obtain items) to Bodahn's goods in the Party Camp.
OMG the Assassin Leader has a motley assortment of gear! Qunari Sword, Antivan Longbow, Heavy Chainmail Gloves and Boots, Soldier's Helm, and fancy-pants Armor of Diligence AND the Ceremonial gloves?

TSM Unhand Those Gloves is a small bug fix mod for Skyrim that makes the Ceremonial Armored Gloves a guaranteed drop from the Assassin Leader in the Forest Stream random encounter, removing the frustration of farming for them. With 234 endorsements and over 13,000 downloads, it's a focused fix for a specific loot issue.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved fix with 234 endorsements and over 13,000 downloads.
- Solves a real annoyance for completionists and collectors.
- Lightweight and focused—does exactly what it says without bloat.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects one specific encounter; if you've already killed the Assassin Leader, you may need to start a new playthrough or use console commands.
- No compatibility notes provided, so it may conflict with mods that alter the same encounter or loot tables.
- Last updated in 2019, so it may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim versions or modding tools.
For Skyrim players who are tired of reloading saves to get the Ceremonial Armored Gloves from the Assassin Leader. It's a must-have for completionists and collectors who want every unique item without the grind. Skip if you don't care about that specific loot or if you use overhaul mods that change encounter loot.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you've already killed the Assassin Leader in your current playthrough, the mod won't retroactively give you the gloves—you'll need to start a new game or use the console to spawn the encounter.
- Make sure to load this mod after any mods that modify the Forest Stream encounter or its loot tables to ensure the guaranteed drop works.
- Since it's a simple bug fix, you can install it manually by dropping the file into your Data folder, but using a mod manager makes it easier to uninstall if needed.
