📋 About This Mod
New lightweight and lore-friendly elven armor for those who like to use both a sharpened blade and magic. The characteristics of the armor are almost entirely based on the base elven armor, and the colors will match the color of the armor from the Steel Light Elven Armor mod. This armor can be created exclusively at the forge (elven smithing perk required).
The set includes a set of male and female armor, an additional armored hood and lowered hood.
Mod is based on excellent armor mod Truly Light Elven Armor with minor changes in the overall design.
