📋 About This Mod

Name: Necromancer Mount Author: Mondstein Version: 3. 0 Date: 7. July 2014 Category: Animal, Creatures, Mounts and Horses

This is the Read Me ==================

This horse is a must-have for every necromancer out there ...

NEW IN VERSION 3. 0 ==================

- The spell to summon the mount no longer affects your health. Instead it decreases your constitution permanently (summon the horse costs you 5 points of constitution; unsummoning gives you 4 points of constitution; so your constitution is permanently decreased). Use the setav console command, if you want the points back.

NEW IN VERSION 2. 0 ==================

  • added new normal map for the saddle
  • the ring has now a world model

ALTERNATIVE VERSION ====================

  • SI diseases are deleted
  • no ring anymore
  • Mount can now be summoned via spell

Location for Version 3. 0 ========================

You can find the ring to summon the mount in the inner sanctum of the Dark Fissure. There are a lot of open coffins and in one of them is an old bag.

Location for alternative Version ================================

In the first level of Dark Fissure you can find a bed and a bookshelf in one of the caverns. On top of the bookshelf there is a red skull. Touch the skull and you will get the "Summon Necromancer Mount" spell.

Details =======

Eshu (named after a god in the Yoruba mythology (Eshu has a wide range of responsibilities, amongst other things he is the personification of death)) is a player owned horse (but beware, you won't get him without paying a price and in this case ... I don't mean gold).

Eshu is set essential (he will not die). He is also immune against poison, disease, magic and he can breath underwater.

If you equip the ring, Eshu will be summoned and you get a saddlebag spell. Use it to open the saddlebags (unlimited and safe storage). Unequip the ring and Eshu will disappear (the saddlebag spell will vanish too, but don't worry, your loot is safe).

He will not wander. Where you have left him, he will wait for you (if you have forgotten, where you have left him, just fast travel and he will be there (if you haven't used another mount in the meantime)).

He is way faster than Shadowmere and has a 90% chance to infect his enemies with a disease (even with deadly ones; I hope it works, because I haven't tested it) when he attacks.

Additional details for alternative version ==========================================

Summon Eshu with the "Summon Necromancer Mount" spell. You will now get the "Unsummon Necromancer Mount" spell (lesser p
