📋 About This Mod
Name: The Mother Sword Version: 1. 0 Date: 4/12/2008 Category: Weapons and Armor Author: waalx (waalx@yahoo.com) forum: http://waalx.com/RealSwordsForum/index.php =========== Description =========== The Mother Sword is the sword of the mother of Conan, in Conan the Barbarian. I changed the pommel deco, as from the two small online pictures I could find the detail is unreadable, and even trying to grab it from my dvd didn\'t gave me any better angle to see it. So I made something like a shell design for it and I think it work nice. I didn\'t find any scabbard that was made for it either in the movie, or by Albion later-on, so I made my own. It is a one-handed blade. ======== Location ======== It is underwater in front of the sewer exit. After you exit the tutorial in the sewer, to find the sword swim under the quay in front of you, it lies in shallow water near the sand. again UNDER the QUAY, you cant access it from the beach you have to swim under to take it. ======= Install ======= 1. Extract this archive directly in your oblivion/data. 2. Start Oblivion Launcher, click Data Files, and enable the MotherSword.esp. info: you may notice that it install the stuff in .../RealSwords/Legend/ folders. That is because I will use this blade as one of the blades of RealSwords - Legend, the 11th module of RealSwords! Permission ========== The sword design was made by Jody Samson (I think), and is owned by Conan Properties. This reproduction is made as a non-profit modification project for the game Elder Scroll IV: Oblivion. It is not to be used outside the Oblivion game environment, or for any monetary profit. If you include this sword in other mod(s), contact me first for permission so I know how it\'s going to be used. Thanks to Crom (for making everything possible).
