''I will go on ahead to try to seal up the evil dragon... I'm concerned, though, because I don't have the legendary hammer... But I have no choice.''

Shortly after making the Blade of Evil's Bane mod, I wanted to make a Megaton Hammer, but did not have a good mesh of it. All of the meshes I found were staying too true to the original appearance of the Hammer (i.e., a cartoonish, simple appearance developed using technology from the 1990s), and were unsuited to the realism of Skyrim. So, using the Dwarven Warhammer and Mace, I cobbled together a shortm one-handed warhammer mesh that gave the Megaton Hammer a sturdier, deadlier look.

The Megaton Hammer is one-handed and has chance to knock down enemies by its heavy staggering effect, its chance of striking a pressure point and inducing paralysis, simply by depleting their stamina, or by striking something vital and killing them instantly.
It swings very slowly, but is much stronger than a daedric mace, equal in strength to an elven warhammer. It is temperable with two steel ingots.
Power attacks guarantee knockback, but are very slow, so using the Hammer with a shield or the Golden Gauntlets is highly recommended.

You can find the Hammer at Arcwind Point in a master-locked chest near an upright draugr coffin.

I do not intend to make a two-handed version, as doing so would require the hammer to be treated as a greatsword (the handle is too short for it to be treated as a warhammer, and lengthening it just seems...wrong). I would have to disable quite a few kill-cams somehow to make that work, so it's likely not going to happen. Also, the Biggoron's Sword fills that niche very nicely.
