📋 About This Mod
Sotha Dagger by Gizmodian ========================= This is a dagger loosely based on another concept from Final Fantasy XII. Though it evolved to something that is far more lore-based Dwemeric style. The blade itself is relatively low-poly, but the textures with it are high resolution 2048\'s. It is located in the IC Market District, A Fighting Chance. The dagger is on the table and is entitled \'Ornate Dwemer Dagger\'. It is owned by the player so you can pick it up without any \'Stop Right There Criminal Scum!s\'. This is a resource first and foremost, but the esp has been added for those that wish to play with it in their game. Credits: Bethesda, for TES: Oblivion. Squaresoft for the concept this dagger is based on Sickelyield, because she\'s awesome. Programs Used: Autodesk 3DS Max 9 Nifskope Adobe Photoshop CS3 DDS Converter 2 Usage License: This is a resource, you are permitted to use this in whatever you wish as long as you give me credit if you use either the mesh, the texture, or the icon. I also like to be contacted. I like to know what mods are including my work. :-)
