New batch of Skyrim Avatar items arrives on Xbox LIVE

A fresh batch of Skyim-based avatar items are available to download today on Xbox LIVE, as well as a new premium theme and picture pack.

While the Xbox 360 will be the first to receive the new Skyrim Dawnguard add-on DLC, none of these items have anything to do with that. Instead, we've got some armor, masks, and an "arrow in the knee" prop that plays off of the wildly popular meme that formed shortly after the game released.

Here's what the new Skyrim avatar items entail:

  • Skyrim Elven Armor for Men/Women (400 Microsoft Points): Don this light armor crafted by the Elves of Summerset Isle.
  • Skyrim Daedric Armor for Men/Women (400 Microsoft Points): Intimidate your foes in this heavy armor crafted from smelted ebony ingots and Daedra hearts.
  • Skyrim Dragon Priest Face Mask (160 Microsoft Points): Summon the power of ancient dragon worshippers in this golden mask.
  • Skyrim Alduin’s Wall Premium Theme (240 Microsoft Points): Transform your Dashboard into the iconic ancient stone wall carved by the Blades.
  • Skyrim Arrow in the Knee Prop (240 Microsoft Points): Can your avatar dodge the horrible fate of many a guard in Skyrim? Find out with the Skyrim Arrow in the Knee prop!
  • Skyrim ‘Fus Ro Dah’ Prop (240 Microsoft Points): Mudcrabs beware! Now your avatar can summon the dragon shout of Unrelenting Force!
  • Skyrim Picture Pack (80 Microsoft Points): Argonian, Redguard, Khajiit – all the races in Skyrim are now yours in the official Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim gamerpic pack!

You can purchase these items plus more on Xbox.com.
