📋 About This Mod
-Snowdon's Chopper-
Custom Greatsword made by mashing some assets found in the Dragonborn DLC. Snowdon's Chopper was originally uncovered in an ancient nordic tomb in Solstheim, and now resides in the Skaal Village's smithy. Was originally meant as Kathryn's weapon, but it turned out pretty nice and I decided to make a standalone version of it. Very high damage and range, lacking in speed to make up for it.
Location: Skaal Village, Solstheim.
