Features

While races in Elder Scrolls games have their own distinctive bonuses, not all of them are created equal. Some of them are much more effective in the end game than others, and some are spectacular active powers that are only available to the player, which may not be a good fit for a non-dragonborn playthrough. Furthermore, daily powers often go unused due to the need to select them in the menu and the 48 second wait for the cooldown to run out.

This is a small mod that replaces the vanilla racial bonuses with two immersive passive bonuses per race.

The mod does not modify the race data itself, ensuring compatibility with mods that visually overhaul races.
