TL;DR info:
This is my very first mod, adding 3 brand new sets of armor, a new set of ninja- like weapons, and a new item that lets you revive friends or fully heal yourself! Go on a short but exciting quest with beautiful new locations, a fully voiced and intelligent companion, and a challenging scripted boss fight against a new enemy with a unique weakness...
Description
===========
There are plenty of opportunities to download crazy, sexual, or re-textured armors- this mod aims to bring you something more believable and unique that fits into the game. Also includes never-before-seen "Healing Herbs" item, and a fully voiced quest!
Location
========
You can find the store to begin the quest by reading Handbills in many Blacksmiths across cyrodill- or to find it manually, head to the center of the Red Road (left from Vilverin, next to Roxey Inn).
Details
=======
Ursa and his wife, Aelurus, are not the kind of people that spring to mind when you think of the words "perfect couple". Aelurus grew up in a wealthy academic family in the Elven Gardens district; Ursa was raised by thieves in a cold shack in the Waterfront. Aelurus is organized (or as Ursa would say, bossy) whilst Ursa is spontaneous (or as Aelurus would say, foolish). Ursa puts his money on Blue Team once a week at the Arena whilst Aelurus browses First edition; Aelurus likes Surilie wine whilst Ursa is strictly a Tamika man. Yet somehow, they find themselves the happiest of couples, making a living running the newly opened store on the Red Road selling their uniquely crafted "Ramshackle Armor"- until now. Ursa has been violently kidnapped and Aelurus is helpless to do anything alone- can you help reunite the Cat and the Bear, and put their Ramshackle Armory back into business?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is my first mod, adding a new vendor to the game selling brand new, totally unique armors. These aren't super-hyper-mega-black-spikes-of-doom armors with a +10 cleavage enchantment either- these are beatup, bloodstained, scavenged, Ramshackle Armors!
Mr. Bear's armory offers 3 new sets of armor, a new set of weapons, and a never before seen item- resurrect fallen friends or heal yourself completely with the rare and expensive "Healing Herbs" item! All of this has to be earned, with a short but exciting quest that expands on everyone's favorite "My First Dungeon"- Vilverin.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Features:
* Heavy, full body "Battle Armor" with a terrifying hood+mask combination head piece, all available in two flavors for mid and high level characters!
* Light and stealthy "Darkened Armor" with separate cape and mask- complements the new...
*... Darkened Weapon Set! These stealthy and unusual weapons are uniquely balanced again mid/high level weaponry- they are lighter and move faster than elven blades, yet are delicate and do less damage.
*Brand new, never before seen "healing herbs" that can resurrect your fallen friends, or heal you completely in a pinch!
*A short but exciting quest with a scripted and challenging boss fight against an enemy with a unique weakness...
*Explore a beautiful undiscovered chamber of Vilverin!
* an intelligent companion- she will remark and react to what she sees throughout the quest.
*Full, good quality voice acting- all recorded on a good quality mic and run through noise removal software before being imported.

I hope you enjoy playing this mod- whilst being my first mod I have done my best to make it a good quality release :) If you like what you have seen here, you should visit me at http://mysteriousprojects.tumblr.com/ - all of my projects and more in one place, including original music composed for use with oblivion!
Install
=======
you know what to do ;) stick the "Meshes", "Textures", and "Sounds" folders in to your Oblivion/Data folder. (If you own Hemmingways Capes it may ask to overwrite a file- you don't need to.) Open up your mod manager of choice and put a tick next to "mysterious Bear's Ramshackle Armory". (if you don't own a mod manager, open up the oblivion launcher, click "data files" and put a cross next to it)
Uninstall
=========
Why would you want to do that?? Well, if you're sure...
uncheck the ESP the same way you checked it. Then, delete these folders:
data/meshes/mysterious meshes
data/textures/mysterious textures
data/textures/menus/icons/mysterious icons
data/sounds/voices/mysterious Mr Bears Ramshackle Armory .esp
Incompatibility
===============
Will not work with mods that edit Vilverin in any way. Also, it's my first mod and so could be a little dirty in places. Any problems, send me a message/ leave a comment and I WILL (try to) fix it! :D
Known Issues or Bugs
====================
There are some pretty things going down with the lip syncing in the first half of the quest. (you know, the half with all the dialog). This is due to me A) recording things ineffectively (hey, first time!) B) getting noise removal settings a bit wrong and C) Loosing the originals. It seemed a bit mean to ask my voice actor to go back and re do them all because of MY mistakes- and whilst I do quite a good womanly voice, I don't think it suited the character very much.
There are also the accepted standard of oblivion bugs- notably, your companion will run into walls with passion and commitment at a couple of points due to oblivion's strange way of handling detection and pathfinding. The best way to fix this is just to find and kill whatever she's chasing after- don't worry if you cant though, she will teleport to you during key moments. :)
IMPORTANT:
--------
To use the Healing Herbs, you need to have them on a hotkey. This is hinted at quite well in the instructions you are given in game, but I didn't want to break immersion.
