✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Simple cosmetic addition that lets you show off your shield without equipping it.
- Covers all vanilla and expansion shields, so you can use it with any character.
- Lightweight mod with 36 endorsements and 841 downloads — a small but appreciated niche.
⚠️ Cons
- Uses the left pauldron slot, so you can't wear a pauldron on that side while displaying a shield.
- Last updated in 2016 — may have compatibility issues with modern Morrowind setups or mods that alter pauldron slots.
For Morrowind players who want to display their shields on their back for aesthetic or roleplay purposes. If you're a completionist who wants to show off your collection, this is for you. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes — this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have both Tribunal and Bloodmoon installed before adding this mod, or the shields won't appear.
- If you use a mod manager like Wrye Mash or Mod Organizer 2, install this mod through it to keep your Data Files folder clean.
- Since it uses the left pauldron slot, plan your armor setup accordingly — you'll lose that pauldron slot while a shield is displayed.
