Forbidden Legend by Ave

This mod replaces the Gauldar Amulet which can be earned during the quest Forbidden Legend, all three Fragments are replaced and to spice things up a little bit this time, I also replaced the Staff of Jyrik Gauldurson with a unique (animated) model.

• []mods that edit the same items and maybe mods that edit Reachwater Rock (had to edit some minor items there to show my models)

  Like my other jewelry replacers, it replaces unique items that don't have a unique model. in order to accomplish this the esp is required.

  • []run fomod

• Optional - use Bodyslide to create the models (versions for Vanilla Body are included!)
