Adds 2 new spell tomes to Tolfdir's merchant chest in the College of Winterhold. Both are novice alteration spells.
To add starlight through the console type `help starlight` into the console and look for the line that reads `Book:(0A000D6D) Spell Tome: Starlight`. The (id) is the bit in brackets, it may be slightly different for you as the 2nd character of the id seems to change per user. To add the darknight tome use `help darknight`.
I was sick of having to recast candlelight every minute as I trudged through the darkest and deepest of dungeons so I wrote to Tolfdir and begged him to create something a little bit better for the dasiy sniffer, dungeon delver that I am. Luckily he was actually in possession of his alembic at the time so he was able to concoct a potion to pour over a spare candlelight tome which would greatly increase it's duration. He told me the potion was mixed from skooma and stardust with a dash of nirnroot... or was that what he was drinking when he made it? Nevermind, I digress. The result... Starlight a spell that will allow you to see into the deepest darkest recesses of a dungeon and then another recess and then a rubble pile and then down a corridor and then... for a whole 5hrs (realtime that is). Thank you Tolfdir, never again will I curse your absentmindedness. Well not for a few days anyway (gametime).
Starlight (11 magika) - Creates a candlelight effect that lasts for 5hrs (not quite continuous but please excuse a little bit of artistic license).
Darknight (0 magika) - An absorption spell that puts out the starlight when you are bored of it following you around!
Notes:
Darknight tested with other alteration spells and it will only dispel starlight. Candlelight will not be affected/dispelled by Darknight.
Starlight will cancel out Candlelight if it has already been cast but if you cast Candlelight when Starlight is active you will have 2 lights. I didn't want to mess around with the original candlelight spell (and you never know when you may want two lights).
Tested with various mods active and had no problems. Shouldn't be any conflicts as I have only created new tomes, spells and magic effects. Vanilla versions are untouched.
