📋 About This Mod

Adds the falling wizard encounter to Oblivion with a slight twist!Adds Slowfall spells (reminiscent of Morrowind) and a High Jump scroll into Loot leveled lists.

DETAILS:

Morrowind, the previous game in the series, had spells such as 'Slowfall' (which slow your fall and reduce fall damage) and 'Jump' (which allowed you to jump very high). For obvious technical reasons, Oblivion did away with these spells. This mod brings them back via Loot Scroll/Spell Tome leveled lists.

There are few other mods that add similar spells into the game already, but mine is a bit different in terms of how the spells are balanced and acquired, among other things.

HOW TO USE SLOWFALL SPELLS:

☛ Slowfall spells can only be cast in midair; casting them on the ground does nothing and will waste your magicka.

☛ Upon successfully casting a Slowfall spell/scroll, a 'Dispel Slowfall' spell will be immediately selected in case you want to stop the Slowfall at any time.

⤷ Upon casting the specific 'Dispel Slowfall' spell OR no longer being in midair, the last 'Slowfall' spell you selected will be reselected IF it wasn't a scroll and you DIDN'T already select a different spell in midair after casting Slowfall.

SPELLS ADDED:

These spells are NOT available through bartering with ANY NPCs, because the established lore in Oblivion is that Levitate (and similar?) spells have been outlawed and it would be too risky to sell Slowfall and High Jump spells. Also, NPCs never jump anyway. BUT you can find these spells in Scroll and Spell Tome loot leveled lists. Finding these spells only in this way makes it seem like people are trying to hide/safekeep their illegal/semi-legal magic spells.

NOTE: The actual magicka cost of spells changes dynamically depending on your skills. The values shown here represent the average cost. At lower skills, they cost more, and at higher skills, they cost MUCH less.
