📋 About This Mod
If you ever wanted additional freedom to enchant and make spells that are not normally available in Morrowind seek out Majiro the Shady. He is khajiit sorcerer, with a Dreugh helm and a dark common robe, located near Balmora's South Wall Cornerclub.
The spells available for purchase include: -Fortify Attack -Absorb Skill -Fortify Skill (Part of the vanilla spells, but easier to get now) -Damage Skill -Restore Skill -Absorb Magicka -Restore Magicka -Stunted Magicka -Fortify Maximum Magicka -Resist Normal Weapons -Weakness to Normal Weapons -Sun Damage
Some of these spells do not calculate properly with spellmaking or enchanting because they are no supposed to be part of the game. So use your best judgement for staying balanced or become completely overpowered and go crazy.
Requirements: Morrowind
Installation: Put in Morrowind/Data Files and activate ESP from the Morrowind Launcher
Forbidden Spells adds a spell merchant near Balmora's South Wall Cornerclub, selling spells that are not normally available in the game. This is a small, niche mod for Morrowind players seeking unique magic options, with 263 endorsements and last updated in 2016.
