📋 About This Mod
On the very border of the black marsh, an old man has taken up residence in an abandoned priory. He has a skeletal horse outside. Is it possible he is willing to give it away? Or maybe he could summon another one? This mod add\'s a completely voice acted quest to the game which ends with the player getting a skeletal horse. This is also a modder\'s resource to be used as you see fit. I would simply like to be acknowledged for making the original mesh. There is a seperate folder in the file entitled resources, you\'ll find everything needed for the horse in there. This file requires the borders be disabled as the priory is barely outside the borders. You can do that by change bBorderRegionEnable from 1 to 0 in your ini. There is also a mod here on tessource that will do it for you. Install ======= 1. Extract the files to a temporary location. 2. Examine the folder structure and make corrections where necessary. 3. Copy files to (install folder)\\Oblivion\\Data\\ 4. Start Oblivion Launcher, click \'Data Files\', place a checkmark beside the .esp file(s). Uninstall ========= 1. Start Oblivion Launcher, click Data Files, uncheck the .esp file(s). 2. Delete the files/folders associated with the mod.

It is completely compatible with OOO. The only possible compatibility issues this mod may have are any mods that change two wilderness cells, one near Cheydinal, and one at the very edge\'s of the games borders. The Uniquelandscape mods have two areas that affect cells very near to the ones I\'ve altered, but as far as I can tell they do not cross. I do not have either of these UL mod\'s to test to make sure. Known Issues or Bugs ==================== No known issues or bugs History ======= V1. 0: Release ---I would like to add a unique armor in a future release, but with school going on full steam right now. I can\'t gaurantee it will
