📋 About This Mod
This is a workaround to make the unlock spells fall under the Illusion tree rather than Alteration. I'm not a modder, so it's a quick and dirty change. It adds five new spells, "Phantom Key (lock level)", which use the Rally spell in
I don't like having to level 2 magic trees as a stealth character, so I made this. It adds five new illusion spells, one for each lock level. I don't know how to write scripts for this, so I attached the "open" magic effect to a rally spell. Don't cast this at an NPC, I don't know what it'll do.

To Install
1. Manual Download
2. Unzip and move .esp to Steam\SteamApps\common\Oblivion Remastered\OblivionRemastered\Content\Dev\ObvData\Data folder
3. Open the plugins.txt file and add PhantomKey.esp at the bottom.
4. Apply NL-Tag remover as below.
You'll need to download NL-Tag remover to avoid having as a prefix for the vendors and the spell. IDK why. Even though I have the Steam version of the game, I had to use the ASI loader version for it to work. Check the comments section of NL-Tag Remover if you're having trouble with it. There are several fixes if it's not working.
