Silver Weapons (Oblivion)

Silver weapons are created by alloying silver with significantly harder metals, a difficult process requiring advanced metalurgical skill. Due to the use of silver, these weapons are among the few that will cause damage to ghosts and are the only non-enchanted weapons (other than Daedric weapons) able to do so. Silver weapons begin appearing randomly in the world and on opponents after level 4. The Imperial Guards along with all other city guards are equipped with Silver weapons, so as to combat any ghost-like creature or vampire that they may come across (or any that you summon). Mithril is the armor counterpart to silver weapons.
