📋 About This Mod
O V E R V I E W
Lost Grimoire SSE is a standalone spell pack mod that adds a variety of new spells, scrolls, and staves to all 5 of the schools of magic.
All the new spells are lore-friendly, well-balanced, and highly polished to provide the best VFX and SFX experience. The new spells were designed to both fill in the gaps left behind by the vanilla spells, and also add new exciting ways to role-play.

For those of you familiar with the original Lost Grimoire mod for Skyrim LE, this SSE version is a total remake - rebuilt from the ground up using the programming and design skills I have spent a decade honing since the original mod came out. You will find brand new spells alongside some returning favorites, plus greatly improved balance, visuals, and lots of squashed bugs.
