About this mod

A very small mod (ESP only) that replaces the Dunmer flame cloak power with the Dunmer "Summon Ancestor Guardian" racial ability (as seen in Morrowind and Obilivion). Uses only vanilla assets, no DLC required.

This is a very small mod which only uses assets from vanilla Skyrim. No DLC or custom files are required.

This mod was created by Somokon for Oldrim back in December of 2011. It replaces the Dunmer Flame Cloak racial ability with the more lore friendly Summon Ancestor Guardian racial ability.

Somokon's original mod features a male Dunmer outfitted in Altmer elven armor and sword. Your "Ancestor" is able to fight for you using fire magic and a sword. The summoned duration is 999 days or death (yours or your Ancestor's, which ever comes first).

I have modified and uploaded two other versions of the mod. Both versions feature somewhat more Dunmer lore friendly ebony armor and sword, as well as decreasing the summoned duration to 120 seconds (two minutes) which is more in keeping with the historical Elder Scrolls versions of the Ancestor Guardian ability. You can chose either a male or female Dunmer, each with custom facial features. Yes, I know... ghost. Why bother? Eh, I had fun doing it.

This will, in all likelihood, be the only version of Summon Ancestor Guardian released. It does what it says on the tin, and should be compatible with pretty much anything (except another mod which modifies the Dunmer Flame Cloak racial ability). Beyond that, I'm not really much of a modder. I'm more of a tinkerer and as such, I don't do requests. This was for my own personal use, and has been uploaded as curtesy to other players who may have played the older versions of Elder Scrolls, or who may want an alternative to the Dunmer Flame Cloak racial ability. 

As far as consoles go, this mod should theoretically work with any system capable of running mods since it uses only vanilla Skyrim assets (no DLC or custom assets required). And, before anyone asks, no, I will not be uploading this to Bethesda.net. If someone does upload it to BethNet (or any other mod site), please give proper credit to Somokon.
