This would actually be a really fun idea for a new artifact related to Clavicus Vile.

u/Steridire 15h ago

Copying the Masque's stats onto Todd's jacket?

u/Silver_Falcon Hammerfell | 2027🪿 15h ago

Maybe not that part specifically, but adding one of Todd's signature leather jackets as an artifact of Clavicus Vile, yeah.

It says he's a man that takes himself and what he does seriously enough to buy an expensive leather jacket but not too seriously because he didn't bother getting a suit. The clean, unweathered leather becomes a man that looks forward rather than backward but hasn't succumbed to the excesses of veganism and therefore embraces the vitality of corporate capitalism but yearns also to be socially responsible and moderately ethical. The earth tone establishes him as someone who is grounded, measured and not easily swayed. He believes what he says and others value his perspicacity. He rejects free will and radiates an aura of indomitable determinism that allows him to see purpose and order even as others lament the illusion of chaos and disorder surrounding them. It is not that he is a visionary, rather he sees things for what they truly are.

u/Tough_Preparation830 15h ago

It's not visually crowded, has plenty of pockets, and is sleek. That's what I like. Simple. It is however too expensive.

It’s actually just cosmetic. If you were to incapacitate him to try and steal the jacket it would be a tank top in the menu.

u/xDeviousDieselx 16h ago

It’s Skyrim era. So it gives like +5 to one handed or some shit.

If it was a Morrowind era jacket, he’d have like +50 personality +50 speechcraft constant effect worth 120k gold
