  • Requirements:
  • Requires Official Oblivion Patch 1. 2. 0416
  • --------------
  • Description:
  • --------------
  • This mod adds a new staff, the \"Staff of Gaia\", for sale at Rindir’s Staffs in the market district. The staff is a new mesh/texture and features a built in animation. (note: the animation will not play in menumode, but plays fine in both first and third person view) I created this staff for another mod of mine, but that mod is significantly larger and requires OBSE, so I thought I would package the staff by itself. The scripted enchantment of the other mod has been discarded in favor of a more conventional enchantment.

  • Installation:
  • -------------
