Name: Grab Live NPC

Version: 1.0

===============
Description:
===============

Adds the ability to grab live NPCs (or creatures) with the grab key.
Requires OBSE (Oblivion Script Extender).

===============
Details:
===============

The ability is added upon starting a new game or loading a saved game.
This works similarly to "Grab Live NPC" effect from The Groovatron (a Fallout 3 mod).
Tap the grab key (default: Z) with an NPC in front of you to grab them. Tap they key again to release.
The NPC will always be IN FRONT of you when grabbed.
Turning yourself to either side or moving will move the NPC accordingly.
When an NPC is grabbed, more options become available. Their keybindings are (Using the Number Pad):
[4] - Rotate clockwise
[6] - Rotate counter-clockwise
[2] - Move closer to you
[8] - Move away from you
[+] - Raise
[-] - Lower
[0] - Freeze / Unfreeze the NPC (freezes NPC action but you can still move them)
[5] - Reset to default position/rotation
Holding "5" for 2 seconds will put the NPC back where you first grabbed them, and release the NPC.
[.] - Brings up menu with options to change keybindings

* Be careful not to place NPCs behind walls, etc. Physics do not apply here
* Freezing the NPC is recommended before elevating them to avoid the jitters
* NPC may be damaged (or killed!) if dropped or lowered too quickly
* NPC will be released in the unfortunate event of death
