📋 About This Mod
This is my first original mod and I call it Occiglacies or "Killer-Ice" the blade belonged to the ancient Falmer Queen before her presumed death, it was lost when one of the Paladins of the Chantry of Auri-El was fleeing with relics from whilst it was being sieged by the corrupted Falmer!
Weapon Type: Greatsword and Sword!
Resolution: There are 2k and 4k versions of the sword respectively
You can find one enchanted version of the sword located in the world
The Enchanted Version has a chance to create a Blizzard against Human Races on Death
(eg. Breton, Nords, Redgaurd, and Imperials)
You can now Switch the sword between 1-Handed and 2-Handed at the Skyforge for 20 gold!
(Explanation: This is to stop level boosting without being too harsh!)
1-Handed Version
Unenchanted Version Craftable at Skyforge
ESP Flagged ESL
Rumors of the Blade say it is located near the entrance of the Forgotten Vale!
The Unenchanted Version can now be obtained in one of two ways!
