*******************************************************************************************************************
URGENT: It has been brought to my attention, and then confirmed through testing, that there are problems with the formulae and the way the game determines your attributes. DO NOT USE this mod for now - feel free to download it and test it or use it as a base for your own mods but until these problems are solved, there could be serious issues with your max Health, Magicka, and Stamina. If you want to help us find a fix, or you know about modding and can give your own advice, or you find the mod works 100% for you, or anything along these lines, please head over to the "comments" section (the little speech bubble, near the middle of the page; you'll probably have to register) and post your comments/questions/thoughts/requests.

Please note: this is my first mod ever made for any game. Let me know if you have any suggestions, if I made any mistakes, or if there are any problems with installation and use.

Racial Changes
v0.1 by SponTen (Owenage)


~ DESCRIPTION ~
Race choice now has a much bigger influence on the game - most stats have been changed in some way, meaning the race you pick now has more of an impact on your character; while (hopefully) still being balanced. I've changed each race to better follow lore, and the mechanics from Morrowind and Oblivion. You SHOULDN'T have to restart for these to take effect, and they should also apply to all NPCs.


~ FUTURE CHANGES ~
Even more impactful stat changes. Also working on complete overhaul of all the mechanics to make Skyrim a more balanced, deeper game.


~DETAILED CHANGES ~

*Note* that for Health, Magicka, and Stamina: I think the "base" attributes of these are 50. So you add whatever is listed below to 50 and that's your starting attribute. For example, Orcs will start with 120 Health, 85 Magicka, and 95 Stamina. Dunno WHY Bethesda made it like this but that's how it is... guess to stop people starting with 0 Health :P.
