📋 About This Mod
Updated 9 may 2018
Serie Deadly Shadows, after Riften. A player house with smelter, forge, alchemy lab, bed.
v. 1. 4: added an entrance to the city, by the river.
The house and passages are not navmeshed. For lonely thieves only.
The containers and house's cell dont'respawn, so it should be safe for storage now.
Added a safe, expert locked, with some trinkets from the previous inhabitant.
Arrow of Fire
Added a smithing recipe under Misc. - the Arrow of Fire. A forsworn arrow with no damage, (can kill because of your perk and bow damage). A torch is spawned at the impact. It's my first try at using enchantment on projectile, the target was intended to burn but only the torch worked. Maybe in a next update if I figure how to make it. Use it with parcimony. A short video below showing the effect.
