📋 About This Mod

Greetings!

Today I would like to share my newest retexture/weapon with you, which is the "Lupus, Swords of Hircine". Since I am pretty limited when it comes to meshes, I concentrated on what I partially have some knowledge in, retexturing a model that I found on the Nexus and that had the correct permissions stated in the description.

This mod adds two brand new, Hircine inspired swords to the world of Skyrim, namely a classic bastard sword in a 1 handed and 2 handed variant. Because we all know: Even a hunter has to fight off bandits and other threats sometimes :)

The damage-values are the same as with ebony-weapons, so you can use it till the end, basicly :)

To get your hands on this weapons, you have to craft it at the forge. It is available under the Ebony-Section as soon as you have Steelsmithing unlocked. You will need a few different pelts (no problem for a hunter, right?) and some basic ebony materials to craft it.

Allright, I hope you like my fourth addition to the awesome selection of mods the Nexus has to offer and maybe play a bit with this weapon. And if you have them pictures to share, I would be very happy to see my stuff in action! :)

If you like this mod, PLEASE ENDORSE it :)

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Solid community backing with 1,124 endorsements and 37k downloads.
  • Gives you two distinct sword styles, each with a 1H and 2H variant, so you can match your playstyle.
  • Lightweight addition—just two weapons, so it won't bloat your load order.

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2017, so it may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim versions or mods without patches.
  • Only adds two swords—if you're looking for a full weapon pack, this is pretty limited.
  • Potential conflicts with mods that overhaul weapon stats or leveled lists, since this mod doesn't specify integration.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who want a thematic, Hircine-flavored weapon set without overhauling the whole game. Great for roleplayers or hunters who want a bit of Daedric flair. Skip if you need a large weapon pack or expect modern compatibility updates.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's a simple weapon mod, you can drop the files into your Data folder or use a mod manager—either works.
  • If you're on Skyrim Special Edition, check if the mod needs conversion or a patch, as it predates SE.
  • Use console commands like 'help hircine' to find the item IDs if you want to test the swords quickly.
