About this mod
This mod alters race attributes, skill bonuses, and specials to be more balanced, interesting, and appropriate.
- Permissions and credits
This mod alters race attributes, skill bonuses, and specials to be more balanced, interesting, and appropriate (according to my own personal tastes). I tried to let each race fit a unique archetype without overlapping too much, and I tried to give fairly equal consideration to lore and gameplay.
Vanilla information can be found here on UESP for the sake of comparison. The Readme specifies which values in the specials were changed from vanilla and gives a short overview of the minor height adjustments.
Requirements
Just Morrowind. Cleaned with TESTool.
Installation
Place the .esp file in your Data Files folder. Activate the plugin in your launcher or your organizer of choice.
Compatibility
This mod is not compatible with anything that alters the character -> race settings or any of the spells or abilities used in the vanilla races.
Recommendations
I designed this mod primarily for personal use alongside other mods of mine that modify various game settings such as Intelligence base magicka multiplier and birthsigns. These are not at all required, but you may find the balance of this mod to be more suitable with them.
For aesthetics, my personal favorites are Facelift and Vanilla-Flavoured Hair. For me, nothing beats the original art style.
My mods are balanced around the assumption that the user will roleplay to various extents and will avoid "exploitative" gameplay, such as excessive resting. Do what you will with this information.
Feedback is welcome.
