About this mod
A .omwaddon file created through OpenMW-CS which only tweaks and buffs some racial powers, heights, and weights for those using an otherwise vanilla playthrough. I believe it can be used for the original engine as well, simply rename the file to be a .esp file, but don't quote me on that. Full list of changes below.

Hello! This is my first ever mod, and my first Elder Scrolls game mod, so I hope you enjoy! :D
As the title suggests, this mod is intended for OpenMW, but I believe the file can work for the vanilla engine. This mod aims to modify some vanilla racial powers and abilities alongside adding new powers and abilities, more or less to my own personal taste. I don't know just how balanced this is, so feedback is HIGHLY appreciated.
NOTES
I did not change the Argonian Water Breathing and Khajiit Night Eye spells as to allow full compatibility with this mod by PhDinSorcery: https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/44948. Their mod makes those spells toggleable abilities, and while it's not required for my mod, I highly if not absolutely recommend to use it alongside my and any other racial mods. Also, I changed the Argonian skill bonus of Illusion to Restoration, it just made more sense to me. Other than that, anything you don't see below has been left as it was in the vanilla game.
===========
INSTALLATION
===========
Create a folder titled `data` inside of `X:\Users\username\Documents\My Games\OpenMW` and place the .omwaddon file in there. When you open the OpenMW launcher, click on Data Files and the plug-in should be at either the very top or at the very bottom of the content list. Simply tick the box left of the file to enable.
