About this mod

My own very vanilla-like vision of balanced birthsigns

Permissions and credits
There are lots of birthsigns rebalance mods. They range from overpowered to those that do not resemble the original vision of the game at all. I wasn't happy with any of them, so I made my own while trying to keep the dev's original idea.

Changelog:

Lady:
Personality and Endurance bonuses reduced from 25 to 15  // I always thought that 50 bonus to stats was OP.

Thief:
Sanctuary increased from 10 to 15   // Thief was a mediocre sign, so I boosted its effect

Steed:
Speed bonus reduced to 20, +10 Strength added   // I felt that something more than a Speed bonus should be added (horses are strong), also Lady gives now overall 30 stat bonus so I balanced that

Ritual:
Mara's Gift healing increased from 100 to 150 and now also restores all attributes; blessed touch duration increased from 30s to 45s   // More useful, while staying close to vanilla

Tower:
Tower Key improved from 50 to 80  // Tower is a strange one, I think 50 points was underwhelming

Mage:
Added +15 Willpower  // I considered Mage to be the weakest of magicka boosting signs so I added a passive Willpower bonus

Lover:
Lover's Kiss changed to touch, duration reduced from 60s to 30s.  // Lover's Kiss was OP in the early/mid game so I tuned it down a little

Serpent:
Star Curse is now ranged, duration changed from 30s to 45s; added 45s of 1 point fire damage // Ok, that sign is still rather weak, but I didn't want to change it too drastically

Lord:
Blood of the North is now a power, it's duration increased from 30s to 60s; weakness to fire reduced from 100% to 75%; 1 point of constant passive health and fatigue regen  // I wanted to preserve TROLL in Trollkin so I only tuned down fire weakness a little, and I boosted special spell to resemble passive regeneration

Warrior:
Added 10% resist normal weapons // Warrior was somewhat decent, so I added one more useful effect

Shadow:
Added 60s of fortify sneak and athletics(20pts) and 10 pts of sanctuary to moonshadow  // Sneak bonus is a form of additional security(in case you touch that kwama egg while invisible in a lair full of bandits, also it helps with pickpocketing) and athletics lets you infiltrate faster

Apprentice and Atronach unchanged  // These two are quite good and balanced

Races plugin:
Attribute and skills without changes, powers removed, new passive effects added instead
