The Ban Hammer
by Ruddy88


Are you tired of Nazeem boasting about the Cloud District?
Do you feel that Maven Black Briar is in need of some vigilante justice?
Do you grow weary of Heimskr trying to force his religion down your throat?

The Ban Hammer is for you!

The Ban Hammer is a custom mesh and custom texture standalone weapon that can be crafted.
Upon striking an enemy, the Ban Hammer will banish your foe from existence in a single almighty swing.
If the foe is flagged as essential, the you will be presented with a quick dialogue box asking if you are sure
you want to Ban them, with the option to cancel. This is to avoid accidentally killing someone you didn't realize was essential.
Non-Essential NPCs will simply be smite down without any delay.

The Hammer uses a modified version of the Banish Daedra enchantment.
The new enchantment will kill, disable, then delete the actor reference, while also providing the
Banish Daedra special effects (purple portal).

An "RECKLESS" version has also been uploaded for those that just wanna let loose, in this version, the menu option will be removed and all
NPCs will be struck down without delay whether they are essential or not.

The only NPCs that are safe, are NPCs flagged as Invulnerable (Children and some ghosts).
I am working on a fix for this.
In the meantime, using a 'killable children' mod SHOULD remove the invulnerable flag and so the Ban Hammer should work on them as well.
I will test this soon and confirm.

WARNING: In case you haven't figured it out yet, this weapon will DISABLE AND DELETE NPCs that are struck with it.
This CAN and WILL mess up quests if used recklessly.
This mod is just for a bit of fun, its severely OP and not recommended to use in a legitimate save.
I am not responsible for anyone messing their game up from killing essential NPCs.

Just install with a mod manager of your choice, the Hammer will be craft-able at any forge with the right perks (Daedric smithing).
Alternatively, you can use the console command Player.Additem xx000800 1 (xx is the mods load order).
OR, you can use one of my lore-friendly item distribution mods:

SkyAI - Skyrim Add Items
or
Odds & Ends - A modded items merchant

These mods work similarly by offering new ways to distribute modded items to your game. (Seriously, go check them out!)


Credit goes to Ghosu for the weapon meshes and base textures.
I've modified the textures myself using his as the base.
Permissions are clearly labelled on his mod page granting free to use permissions.

Also a big thanks to Ghostifish from the nexus discord chat for helping me out with some of the scripting issues I was having.
