Permissions and credits
"They are among the many Khajiti arts of claw and tail. Jobasha learned Rawlith Khaj before traveling to Vvardenfell. The name means "rain of sand," and the art has many styles such as Rain, Sand, Wind, Sun, Storm, and Two-Moons-Dance."

Magefist is a set of spells that provide bonus unarmed damage. They are the fist counterpart to the existing mage armor spells. The spells are Oakfist, Stonefist, Ironfist, Ebonyfist, and Dragonfist. I have kept these spells as simple and as balanced as possible. There are no new animations or perks, just some simple spells to buff unarmed combat. Magefist spells will be automatically unequipped when cast, to allow for immediate use of the fists.

The existing Mage Armor perks will increase the damage bonus by 100%, 150% and 200%. Dual casting will increase the duration and provide a further 50% damage bonus. Other general Alteration perks will also apply. The damage bonus stacks with other unarmed damage bonuses, such as the Fists of Steel perk and the Fortify Unarmed enchanting effect.

The unarmed damage bonus is useful but not overpowering. A master swordsman will still deal more damage, but Magefist spells will hold their own against most enemies.

Oakfist and Stonefist may be purchased from most spell vendors, the Ironfist spell is available from Tolfdir and Wylandriah, and the Ebonyfist and Dragonfist spells are available from Tolfdir.

Some notes:

* The spells want to equip in the left hand when using the hotkeys, unlike Destruction spells which favor the right. A quick workaround is to simply tap the hotkey twice to equip in both the left and right hands.

* Due to how the Unarmed Damage modifier work in the game, experience will be gained on every spell casting, regardless of whether the player is in combat or not. It is hoped that players will not abuse this.
