📋 About This Mod
Description =========== This mod adds long manicured & polished female Nails to your game, fitted for use on the standard (vanilla)-hands.
! UPDATE ! ========== Version 1. 1 now for download. The Nails are now also visible in 1st-person-view!
Details: ======== The mage-nails can be obtained in 6 different colors, can be found on different locations in Skyrim, and their enchantment will give you an increased magical skill. Your female character can equip them like any other accessory or armor. Fitted for use on the standard (vanilla)-hands, they can be worn to all vanilla- and many modded outfits, i.e. most UNP.
(Btw., if you like really loooong Witch-Nails, i recommend to check my Hands & Nails-mod: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/57083? It includes now a superlong Nails version) Lore: ===== In my opinion these nails are lore-friendly. Women in ancient times who grew their nails to extraordinary length were seen to have a special social standing in the society. For example, Egyptian women used to decorate their hands with artificial nails made out of ivory, bone or gold. ( http://alhamora.hubpages.com/hub/The-History-of-Nail-Care )
And ... imo a real witch should have long nails ! ;)
Locations: ==========
French & Black: High Gate Ruins ------------------------------- > west of Dawnstar, east of Solitude, and north of Ustengrav. (inside, besides the wordwall)
Blue & Gold: Ironbind Barrow ---------------------------- > southeast of Dawnstar and southwest of Winterhold on the road from Whiterun to Windhelm (inside, besides the wordwall)
Green & Red: Shriekwind Bastion ------------------------------- > northeast of Falkreath and west of Pinewatch (inside, besides the wordwall)
Installation ============ I recommend to install manually, don't use NMM. Well, you only need the ability of copy & paste :)
It is important to use EXACTLY the same folder-structures as they are given in the mod-packs! Any little mistake in paths or a misspelled foldernames will result in a non-working mod!
1.
Unzip and extract the "HN66MageNails.rar" to any temporary folder.
