1981. The first game of the Ultima series was officially released. An epic series began, culminating in the ninth tittle. Ultima IX was still before the time of Oblivion, but Morrowing had already been out for a year. It was the first 3D tittle in the series, and within it, plenty of epic armors and weapons that could be used for lore-friendly mods in Skyrim, seeing as they're both medieval themed.

Such artifacts included, but not limited to:

The Helm of Radiance, a crown (part of a set of different artifact armor), which would illuminate a small area. Also shown is a fine shield called Kite Shield.

Mage shield.

 

 

And plenty of others.
Understand this mod will require a big knowledge in modding weapons from scratch and extensive research. I'll be more than willing to help with the research, but I don't even know if I can mod decently, so let's scratch that.

For starter, this website has an image diary of someone's playthrough, and I found it very helpful for images of the weapons of this game. http://lparchive.org/Ultima-9/Update%201-1/

Good news, someone had started an Ultima dungeon map mod. Bad news, apparently abandoned. http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/20307
