- In Anvil a beggar recently found 2 swords on a body washed ashore. Not being much of a fighter, he sold them to the local blacksmith for whatever he could get. When the blacksmith saw them he instantly recognized them as Noctiluca and Sidereus, the legendary swords of Captain Buckthorn, or “Bloody Buck”.
- Noctiluca and Sidereus stands for “Moon and Stars”, and few match their quality. They are faster and have more reach than normal swords, but must be repaired often due to their delicate nature. The Blacksmith holds them to this day for someone worthy of their reputation, or someone with a heavy coin purse.
- (adds 2 rapier style swords to the game sold in Anvil at the Blacksmith. One is offhand and used as a shield. They similar to daedric quality and are unenchanted so you can customize yourself)
- an interesting note
- when i adjusted the rapier attack speed from 1. 0(default) to 1. 2, oblivion loads higher pitch sound when you swing... and it sounds quite appropriate.
