📋 About This Mod

Enchanting Awakened

<by egocarib>

A mod that completely reimagines Skyrim's enchanting skill system

in an immersive, balanced, and lore-friendly way.

Tired of enchanting being a mindless skill grind with no rewards or replay value? Bothered

by how those half-dozen banish-enchanted daggers ruined the economy for the rest of your

play-through? Have tried all the other enchanting mods out there but found them lacking?

Then welcome, fellow essence-seeker — you've finally arrived where you belong.
