I'm a fan of the British science fiction series called "Doctor Who" for many years. Someday,
I felt the desire to wield a Sonic Screwdriver in Cyrodiil. It had to be the blue one of
the 12th Doctor, who is my favourite Doctor, and which I recreated from scratch as a 3D model
in Blender.

The Doctor himself gives you the Sonic Screwdriver (abbr. Sonic). You can find him in the Mages
Guild of Skingrad. His face is mostly based on my memories. 

You can watch a demonstration video of the different functions of the Sonic
if you wish: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rHUa_RZMFA




Changelog:

v1.0
- initial release

v1.01 (released as an update and now part of the ALL IN ONE version)
- the Sonic Screwdriver's black edition is available 

v1.02 (released as an update and now part of the ALL IN ONE version) ***
- I added a dummy enchantment to the Sonic to prevent enchanting it in game. If you enchant it, the scripts won't
  recognize the Sonic anymore, so that its functions won't work.
- Furthermore, I tweaked the Sonic's main script so that when the Torch Mode is turned on, the teleporting of the light source is only 
  executed when the weapon is drawn. Before, if the Torch Mod was on and you sheathed the weapon, the disabled light source 
  was still being teleported to you; this led to an unnecessary performance impact.

v1.03 (released as separate English version)
- The light source will now move every 6 frames to the player instead of every frame when the Torch Mode is activated. This makes sure that the 
  timer of every ther script which uses timers will not be messed up.		







The functions of the Sonic Screwdriver:
=======================================

- Pressing the action key (default: V): Unlock/lock locks, information on the opponent
- action key + blocking: calls the Special Actions Menu. Here you can toggle the Torch Mode
  ON/OFF, open the Doctor's Purse (a remote sack to store your stuff), get a more detailed 
  information on the opponent ("Deep Scan") if you stand in front of him, change the range
  of the Sonic, set the action key to a different key on your keyboard and recharge all weapons
  in your inventory
- Power effects: if you are in trouble, you can use them to get out of it. They are triggered 
  by performing power attacks and work on all opponents within a defined radius.
	normal power attack:       Paralyze (10 seconds)
	backwards power attack:    transfer the weapons and arrows of your opponents to the
				   Doctor's Purse
	power attack to the left:  corrode all weapons and armour
	power attack to the right: Chameleon for 30 seconds (based on the Doctor's invisibility
			           watch)
	forward power attack:      push your enemies away


For balancing reasons, the Sonic doesn't do any direct damage to your opponents because it's 
primarily for self-defence.
