📋 About This Mod
Nicos Hadhafang SE v1_0
________________________
Reason for this mod:
______________________
Always been a fan of The Hobbit, and Lord of the Rings. Especially love what WETA workshop did for the concept art of weapons when it came to the movies.
This sword was one that played a major role being both used by Elrond, and Arwin.
Regal red mahogany with golden leaf, and vine inlay. Golden metal accents. Flowing lines of an Elvish saber.
Yep, I had to make it.
What does this mod do?:
________________________
This mod adds one Hadhafang sword to the game. It is located at Autumnshade Clearing stuck in a broken treestump near the cave entrance.
It can also be crafted, enchanted, and upgraded with Elvish Smithing perk.
Base damage the same as Ebony sword but faster swing and lighter weight (It's an Elvish thing :P )

Weta Workshop for the beautiful concept art that this sword and scabbard is based on.
J. R. R. Tolkien for the wonderful stories.
PhatBassAnchor for continued friendship, input, history, play testing, images, and just basically helping me out. Thanks brother. :)
Final thoughts:
________________
This was a fun one, and should go well with Aragorns dagger (red with gold version), Mirkwood, and Rivendell Bows.
Hope you enjoy it, and have many hours of fun using it..... I know I will :)

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 467 endorsements and over 21k downloads.
- Lore-friendly for LOTR fans, adds a recognizable weapon without breaking immersion.
- Simple to obtain—either find it early or craft it with Elvish Smithing.
⚠️ Cons
- Only one weapon—no new textures or models beyond the sword itself.
- Requires Elvish Smithing perk to upgrade, which may not fit all builds.
- Potential compatibility issues with mods that alter Autumnshade Clearing or weapon stats.
For Skyrim players who want a lore-friendly LOTR weapon without overhauling the game. Also for collectors who enjoy unique, well-placed items. Skip if you're looking for a full weapon pack or major gameplay changes.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Head to Autumnshade Clearing early to grab the sword without needing smithing perks.
- If you want to upgrade it, invest in the Elvish Smithing perk under Smithing.
- Since it's a standalone weapon, it won't conflict with most mods, but check for mods that alter the same location.
