That was an ebony greatsword, pure vanilla. It was the first I ever saw as well.
Mannequin guardians would be a great idea for a villain to have in a mod. You sneak into their house to steal some plot macguffin, and the mannequins all come to life and attack!
Grits: So far I really like all the ebony gear in this game as well. Though I think Hera is going to stick with the elven equipment for now. It is what feels right for her, at least right now.
Those mannequin's moving around is creepy. It is a common glitch though. You can fix it by leaving the cell, and then reentering.
Acadian: That one of the two friendly draugr was almost as good as the bandits tea-bagging.

Well, I guess taking a troll to the knee is better than an arrow! Sorry, you would probably have to play the game to recognize the meme.
I think I prefer the simple racks like they had for the KOTN armor too. The mannequins can be creepy.
Now how did that mammoth get stuck in there?

I created a new character to try out the Imperial side of the civil war. Meet Selene, Imperial Battlemage (She killed two other Imperials getting the Jagged Crown. Oops!)
It is great how an Imperial Legionary can walk right into the capital of the enemy, and the Stormcloaks just make small talk.
