📋 About This Mod

The mod adds an active shield-bracer to the fortress of Odrosal. The shape of the bracer was created on the basis of the original concept Wraithguard.

Eventually, another model got into the game. This "original" model, remained on the Dwemer drawings and in the artbook.

The active effect does not work on OpenMW

Install optional versions after installing the original mod!!!

- The shield is automatically equipped when using a bracer.

- You cannot use another shield while wearing a bracer.

- the shield increases the "block" characteristic by 30 units. Constance effect.

- To restore its strength (recharge), you need to put it on and take it off again. Or throw the broken version in the form of an energy cell on the ground.

There are three versions: An active shield triggered by a blow.  Permanent shield (visual effect is visible when you are in a fighting stance). And the absence of a visible shield, that is, it will work, but visually you will only see the handcuff.
