📋 About This Mod
As a Marksman, whether or not I survive the battle often depends on how many arrows I have. Being a stealth specialized character, I can\'t cart around a big heavy sword if I run out of arrows. So often I turn to hand-to-hand combat in a pinch. It\'s not very effective, mostly because Oblivion lacks any sort of Hand-to-Hand weapons. So I decided to craft some for myself. Oblivion Bracers adds a small barrel in the Player Home in Leyawiin, filled with enchanted gauntlets, gloves, and bracers to use for Hand-to-hand combat. All of the bracers fortify Hand-to-hand, and some fortify other attributes or skills. Did your mage wonder into a cave for some rare ingredients, but your Alchemy level just isn\'t high enough? Try the Kirin\'s Hand, a powerful set of gauntlets that also fortify your hand-to-hand and alchemy. Your thief trying to pick a very tricky lock? Try Silence, a set of fur bracers that muffle sound and increase your security. I made several Hand-to-Hand weapons of both light and heavy armor with a handful of different abilities. I intend to make them buyable at some point in time, but right now I\'m just testing them. There is also one very powerful set of gauntlets called Zanarkand\'s Tears, in which I plan on crafting a quest for. Any rate, I just made this mod for myself. If you want to use it in any way possible, have at it.
