Thanks for downloading my 1st mod.




The Shivering Isles & Spell Tomes expansions are needed for this mod to work properly as well as the folders of nif and dds files included in the rar.



This mod gives any player wanting them some good looking god items right as they leave the sewers in the beginning of the game. The "Chest" is located on the dock infront of the sewer exit you come out of at the beginning of the game.

As you might have guessed from the title of the mod, I loved playing as a Dark Brother and talored all my god items toward Sithis in general. From the design of the weapons and armor; to the amulet and rings; and the magic spells and enchanchantments; all was designed for the perfect assassin; Sithis has a presence in it all. Even my choice for the "Treasure Chest" just screams Dark Brotherhood.

In the mod you'll find:

--An awsome stealth bow with great attack power and usefull enchantments. Borrowed from the Apophis Armory of the Silver Dragon mod. Originally made by nicoroshi.

--Pre-poisoned arrows and insta kill arrows. Both borrowed from the Dark Seducer and Amber Arrows from SI. Insta Kill script is borrowed from STAlazyrazor mod. Edited by me.

--2 wicked kool blades borrowed from the Hashshashin Armor mod. Very powerfull and super fast. One is my version of The Mehrunes razor. Script for said version is borrowed from STAlazyrazor mod.

--an amulet that basically makes you immortal. Borrowed from the Necromancer's Amulet in Vanilla Oblivion. Object script is borrowed from Uber Ring of Pack Mule in Uber Gear mod. Edited by me.

--4 distinct rings designed to give the player the winning edge(3 of them are designened from vampire powers in Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines). The 4 rings are borrowed from existing rings in Vanilla Oblivion.

--1 ring which adds a custom made and extremly violent and powerfull spell not many can stand against. Unequipping it will remove the spell. (you can't handle it without the rings protection if the spell hits you and you are not wearing the Amulet!). The ring is borrowed from the Apophis Armory of the Silver Dragon mod. Script is partially borrowed from "Casting Spells from an Activator" tuturial at tescs wiki. Edited by me.

--a spell tome which adds a custom spell with devastating attack power. Spell tome is borrowed from the Spell Tomes expansion mod. Script is edited by me.

--a set of light armor with enchantments geared for assassination. Armor is borrowed from both Hashshashin Armor and Apophis Armory of the Silver Dragon mods.

--a face mask with awsome boosting enhancements. Borrowed from the Hashshashin Armor mod.

--a set of "Sithis" quality alchemy gear for ultra powerfull potions. Gear is vanilla oblivion that is tweaked like aparatuses in the Uber Gear mod.

--also through in a skeleton key for those new players who wanna stay away from the console commands as much as possible. Vanilla Oblivion on this one as well.

and last but not least.......

--A Sithis inspired soul taking staff! Unlike Merhunes Razor, this sucker insta kills everything, everyshot!! and it's use is NOT considered hostle so no bounty is incurred for killing with it! Staff design is borrowed from the Skull of Corruption from Vanilla Oblivion. Script is borrowed from STAlazyRazor mod. Script edited by me.





To install, just unzip using winrar or someother file compressing software and follow the READ ME instructions. I'll go into detail how I made the mod for any fellow newbies who might need pointing in the right direction.


Search TESNexus for titles of the other mods I listed here for the original mods. Ive only included what I used in MY mod, but there is A HELL of alot more to offer in the combined mods I've listed. The STAlazyrazor mod is actually found by searching for "Mehrunes Razor".


Thanks for reading.

List of changes for v 1.2

This version is an over-haul of v1.1 Blessings of Sithis mod. It is compatible with Sithian Arcanum 1.0 and 1.1.

I would recommend getting 1.1 of Sithian Arcanum; it has 6 more spells than 1.0.

List of changes:
--made all Fortifing enchantments "Abilities" that the player aquires/unaquires when they equip/unequip the apparel and armor.

--amped all Fortifing Abilities to 100. Master Level.

*what this conversion of enchantments to abilities does to the player is it actually "masters" the player instead of just Fortifing them.

Example:

You have an enchanted hood that fortifies your marksman to 100 you still can't zoom and paralyze your opponent; where as, if the hood adds the "ability" that fortifies your marksman to 100, you will then be at master level with all the perks.*




*I have read that abilities that fortify skills may make leveling alot more challenging and drawn out so I made the following new amulets to compensate this effect and for those who don't care about the actual tedious process of leveling but just want to play straight through the game fighting the toughest enemies and getting the best loot/awards.*



List of New items:



--Level 5-50 Amulet(s). These are 10 seperate amulets that will "set" the players level to the corresponding level according to the name of the amulet. I even put the command I used in the fake script effect enchantment on the amulets.

Example:

Level 5 amulet. Has script effect enchantment named "player.setlevel 5".





**The enchantments on all the apparel and armor are just "titles" for what the object script effects are doing when you equip/unequip the items. If you want to see what each ability actually does, go to the spell sellection and click on enchantments (last tab in spell sellect).**



--Shadow Gauntlets. Used the Crimson Death Gaunlet model from Hashashin Armor mod. They just look wicked!

-They add the "Shadowed Hands" ability. It fortifies your hand to hand, strength, and luck to 100. Makes you a very lethal hand to hand fighter.

-They also add the spell "Shadow's Touch" when equipped. Removes it if unequipped.

The Shadow's Touch spell is a combo of an insta kill with a sneak check script with a add item then equip item commands intergrated. The item is a custom potion (thanks alonzomartinez) that restores magicka 10,000 pts for 1 sec.

What this does is lets you kill an opponent while sneaking and undetected and restores your magicka 10,000 pts for 1 sec. Perfect recovery spell for anyone who chose atronach as a birth sign!

--The Reaper's Dagger. Still used totally awsome model from Hashashin mod. Added the
player.resetHealth command after the kill so it has become an life transfer type of dagger.

There wasn't a reset magicka command that I could used.

---------------------------------------------------------

V1.3

This mod is still compatible with all versions of Sithian Arcanum.

List of Changes:

--changed the "flames" for the Void Arrows and Void Blast scripts to a custom flame I figured out how to create instead of using Flame of Agnon from SI.

--added a new hood! "The Erlking's Mantle". It adds the Ability "Eyes of The Hunter" which fortifies your Marksman to 100 and gives you Detect life for area of 200.

--changed Detect Life Shader to The_Vipers Red shader.

--re uploaded v1.3, there was a missing dds file for the Shadow Gauntlets. Should be visile now.

Thanks:
