===============
1. INTRODUCTION
===============

Introduces an Ebony Diamond Circlet to jewelry crafting, loot lists, Jarl Elisif's attire, and as the Diadem of the Savant. 

The gems are set up in a manner similar to Gemling Queen Jewelry's (which is an expansion on my True Circlet Gems mod), so the screenshot doesn't do it justice.  Examine it in the RaceMenu for maximum magpie.  Available for all vanilla playable races.

To craft, you must have the Ebony Smithing.  Ingredients are 1 Ebony Ingot, 2 Diamonds, 1 Flawless Diamond, and 5 gold (for the gold trim bits).

You may also find them occasionally in leveled loot. They will start to appear at Level 35, and will be rather rare since it is made of some of the highest-value materials on Nirn.

For the purposes of upgrading the Diadem of The Savant, this mod requires the Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch.

================================
2. INSTALLATION AND REQUIREMENTS
================================

Unpack the ESP module and Textures and Meshes folders into your Skyrim\Data folder.  Activate the ESP module "EbonyCirclet.esp" using the mod manager of your choice.

If you have Gemling Queen Jewelry, there may be some overwrite alerts.  The assets are identical, you may overwrite without worry.

3. ISSUES

This mod requires the Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch, in order to alter the upgrade material for the Diadem of the Savant from a gold ingot to an ebony ingot.

Additionally, this mod alters Elisif's referred OTFT form. If something else alters it (not necessarily Elisif directly), Elisif may not get an ebony diamond circlet.
If Elisif is in a currently or recently loaded cell, it may not appear either until later.

Not required, but the Oldrim mod aMidianBorn Ebony has an excellent envirocube texture for Ebony items.

4. SPECIAL THANKS
=================

Special thanks to Saerileth for allowing usage of Gemling Queen Jewelry assets here (SSE version maintained by LordJoseph7: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/52266/?), and for taking the gem mesh technique I implemented in my True Circlet Gems a step further in Gemling Queen Jewelry.
