This mod features a collection of intricately crafted rings that I personally designed and offer as a resource for fellow modders. These unique rings are now for sale from Palonirya at Divine Elegance in the Imperial City Market District. The mod is fully playable but intentionally does not include enchantments, scripts, or elaborate particle effects, with the purpose of fostering their use in other mods by the modding community.

Each ring in the collection is associated with one of the Nine Divines, offering a thematic connection to the deities of Tamriel. I grant permission for these rings to be ported to Skyrim and other games, allowing for their inclusion in diverse modding endeavors.

Here's a full list of the available rings:

3. **Gold Obsidian Ring (Julianos' Wisdom)**: Reflecting Julianos' intellect and wisdom, this gold ring showcases a sleek obsidian gem, symbolizing knowledge and logic.

Amethyst is known for its calming and spiritual properties, believed to enhance intuition and inspire creativity in the wearer.

7. **Silver Garnet Ring (Stendarr's Justice)**: Symbolizing Stendarr's righteous justice, this silver ring gleams with a fiery garnet, representing protection and retribution.
Garnets are associated with strength and security, believed to shield the wearer from harm and negativity.

Diamonds are known for their durability and clarity, symbolizing resilience and courage in the face of challenges.

I created these rings to offer a broader selection for modders and players, addressing the limited choices available in the base game. I trust you'll appreciate this straightforward mod and discover imaginative ways to integrate these rings into your modding endeavors.

The Witcher 2 Poor Clothes Revised

Download Download



This is a revised version of roblesstevena's TW2 Poor Clothes. He did an excellent job porting these outfits from The Witcher 2 but I felt like the male variants needed some tweaks.

I removed the hump on their back, reduced the clipping as much as possible, fixed the distorted texture mapping on the pants and improved the weight paint here and there. I also added these outfits for sale at the Divine Elegance in the Imperial City Market District even though they're not exactly... elegant LOL.

I wish this could be uploaded as an update to the main file but roblesstevena never replied my PM. Luckiliy he stated in the readme that his mod could be modified and reuploaded as long as credits are given to CDProject Red and Witcher5688 so here it is.

Gold Diamond Ring

Download Download



This mod adds an exquisite gold diamond ring that can be purchased from Palonirya at the Divine Elegance in the Imperial City Market District. I've made this model from scratch using real life photos for reference.

The ring is enchanted with the following spell effects:
- 25% Reflect Magic
- 25% Spell Absorption
- 25% Resist Magic

This wiki entry explains exactly how these 3 effects will work when combined together: Reflect vs Absorb vs Resist. Basically the item will first try to reflect an offensive spell, there's a 25% success rate to do so. If it fails then spell absorption will kick in. Again there's a 25% chance to convert incoming damage into magicka. If spell absorption doesn't work either then resist magic will trigger for sure and reduce the damage received by 25%.

There are 3 instances of the same ring: the first is the normal one, the other two are for female characters that use smaller hands, one fits the right hand and the other fits the left hand. However only one instance should be used per time since this item is very powerful to the point that it could be considered a cheat item.

PC Mana - Custom Race

Download DownloadMirror 1 | Mirror 2
[Last updated 15 November 2024]


Those who've been following me for a while may be familiar with Eli. He's been my main character since 2011, but for some reason I've never been very happy with his looks. I can't tell how many times I've edited his face! No matter what, there was always something that seemed a little bit off to me. So in the end I've decided that Eli will have to be reshelled: I will remake his face from scratch (maybe even swap head mesh for a new one), give him a better equipment and write a totally different background story.


In the meantime I have created Mana, a brand new character that will take the place of Eli as my main. He uses my revised version of FF head which now has better morphs for facial expressions, a totally new face texture and matching human ears. I could've fixed the messy UV map - and also removed 2 unnecessary vertices along the neck seam - but I chose not to because I wanted to keep compatibility with the original release of FF head.

Mana is mixed blood, he's an Imperial and also has Akaviri ancestry. The idea of a young Akaviri warrior mage has been rattling around in my mind for quite some time. I gave him a Japanese female name because I think it suits him. He's named after Manami Anzai, a fictional character from the manga and drama Life. However he's not as wicked as her.

Mana comes with equippable body parts which can be worn like any other clothes. By default he uses the SLAth build from Robert's Male. A copy my A4 body is also available. If you use OBSE and its Blockhead plugin, Oblivion's default body will be automatically replaced with Robert SLAth when clothes are taken off.

Here's a full list of his wearable body parts with the corresponding console codes. XX is a placeholder for the modindex, a two-digit number that indicates the position of an esp/esm in your load order. OBMM can help you identify the correct modindex.

Mana's SLAth body
XX002A01 - Hands
XX002A02 - Feet
XX002A03 - Torso

XX002A16 - LegsSLS
XX002A17 - LegsSNNS
XX002A18 - LegsSNS

Mana's A4 body
XX002B01 - Hands
XX002B02 - Feet
XX002B03 - Torso
XX002B04 - Legs
XX002B05 - LegsC

Mana's Underwear
XX002C01 - Underwear SLAth
XX002C02 - Underwear A4

Only body parts and a pair of briefs (inherited from Eli) are included in this mod. I have recently released the Musa armor and a black fundoshi that were made specifically for Mana, though. These can be downloaded separately. 

INSTALLATION 
Installation is very easy: copy Mana.bsa and Mana.esp
to your Oblivion\Data folder and activate the plugin. In the character creation menu select Mana's race and reset his face. You can then change his hairstyle and eye color. This mod incorporates a custom race fix. I have included a pdf document with Mana's personal information and background story.

N.B. If you decide to change race again later in game, please first unequip all items added by this mod and dress your character in stock clothes, otherwise you will get a crash to desktop.

Delete the files to uninstall the mod.

CREDITS

Rose Locket Necklace

Download Download



This mod adds an oval-shaped locket necklace with a pretty engraved design of a rose on the front. The case opens to reveal a portrait of Lucien Lachance which is a beautiful cosplay picture made by Chaosvin.


I actually made this mod long ago as a gift for Myst42 but never released it to public. In its original version the locket contained a family photo of Myst's character Elena.

The necklace comes in two variants, open and closed, and can be purchased from Palonirya at the Divine Elegance in the Imperial City Market District.

N.B. if you don't use a HGEC based female body and/or you get a clipping issue around the neck area please replace the plugin with the alternate esp included.
