Description
This mod allows you to spend dragon souls to improve some of your character abilities. It is designed toward the late game when all shouts are already unlocked and dragon souls become useless but you may as well use it in early game. Go inside High Hrothgar where you will find a dragon stone. To interact with the stone you must be acclaimed as Dragonborn by completing the Greybeard\'s trials (retrieving The Horn of Jurgen Windcaller and learning last word of Unrelenting Force shout). You can then meditate at the stone and perform the ceremony to relinquish any number of unspent dragon souls and redeem specific bonus via easy to use interaction menu. Available bonuses are: Shout Recovery (reduces time between shouts), Shout Power (increases damage of Fire Breath and Frost Breath shouts), Perk Points (adds free perk points), Unarmed Damage, Carry Weight and Attributes (health/magicka/stamina). Each bonus has its own cost, increment value and maximum value.Costs, Values, Balance and Tweaking
Some people will finish the game with no more than 20 unspent dragon souls while others might have as much as 200. Default cost and increment values are set according to my own taste:- [] Shout Recovery (max 50%, 1 soul = 2%) [] Shout Power (max 400%, 1 soul = 8%) [] Perk Points (max 100, 5 souls = 1 perk) [] Unarmed Damage (max 100, 1 soul = 4 damage) [] Carry Weight (max 500, 1 soul = 20 weight) [] Attributes (max 500 per attribute, 1 soul = 10 health or magicka or stamina)

🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who hoard dragon souls and want a meaningful sink for them. Also great for roleplayers who want a lore-friendly way to spend souls. Skip if you prefer gameplay overhauls that change combat or shouts directly.
