DESCRIPTION
This mod adds an Athletics skill to Skyrim along with perks and its own perk tree. Although not technically dependant on it, this file REQUIRES the main SCS - Skyrim Custom Skills files to work. Please visit the Main files's page for details about the mod's mechanics and installation instructions.
As of version 2.0, there is also a Lockpicking version which uses the perk tree slot created by "Merged Thievery Skill" by LukeH. This version is "standalone" and does NOT need the main SCS file to work. Just download it and make sure it is loaded AFTER the Merged Thievery Skill mod in your load order.
IMPORTANT UPDATE NOTE
If updating to version 2.0 from an older version, make sure you update to version 2.0 or higher of the Main file FIRST - bad things will happen otherwise...
ABOUT ATHLETICS
After playing Morrowind and Oblivion, I really missed the Athletics skill in Skyrim so I really wanted to bring it back. It now also incorporates what would have been Acrobatics in the previous games. It governs and is improved by running, walking, sprinting, swimming and jumping. Books that used to raise Athletics or Acrobatics in Morrowind or Oblivion (and are not associated with a skill in Skyrim) now raise the Athletics skill.
