Description
Adds the Dragonbone Armor Set for sale to The Best Defense in the Market District of Imperial City.

Details
The Dragonbone set includes a complete and unique armor set and a sword with custom icons.
The armor rating is 20% better than Daedric and thus the value is 20% more. The weight is 10% less than Daedric.
The enchanted armor contain 20% resistance to fire and if all pieces are worn, 100% resistance is the cumulative effect.
The LongSword is Elvish but because it is Dragonbone, the weight is 10% less and the armor rating is 20% better.
The Cuirass has the special ability to grant you 3 spells and 1 Major Power upon wearing it and are only available while the armor is worn. You'll hear a thunderclap when the spells are added to your inventory.
An additional set of armor is available without enchantments (called Dragonbone Ash) for those that would rather create their own enchantment.

Installation
This archive is distributed in what I call OMOD-Ready format.
It allows you to manually extract and install like most other mods but it also allows you to use Oblivion Mod Manager and import this archive with all the settings I pre-configured for an OMOD file.

Please see the included readme file for details.

Incompatibility
None.

Known Issues or Bugs
None.
