📋 About This Mod
You MAY NOT use my mods in paywalled modlists. Already I've seen some 'modlist authors'
doing this and I strictly do not condone this. Modlists and load orders
should not be hidden behind patreon subscriptions.
Audio Overhaul for Skyrim SE contains VOLUME SLIDERS for magic, weapons and other categories. If you do not
like the volume, I highly suggest you install this as it is compatible
with Immersive Sounds instead of leaving comments about your ears being
hurt. It will spare both you and I a headache.
Foreword: I apologize for the delay on mod releases and audio content, I have had a lot of medical issues this past year and they've made it difficult for me to work on audio.
Mordant is an audio overhaul for poison magic; which in vanilla only exists for Seekers, Lurkers and a singular Poison Rune spell. These have been replaced and a series of new Descriptors have been made to accommodate both gaseous and liquid poison spell visuals, though the mods I have patched only seem to be the former.
The mods I have patched are the following:
Poison Magic of Skyrim by GamerTechClub
The Elder Scrolls - Tomebound - Lore Spell Additions by Elyem
Mysticism - A Magic Overhaul by SimonMagus
Plague - Poison Spells Mysticism Addon by Darenii
Ordinator - Perks of Skyrim by EnaiSiaion
Venomancy by Surge101ex - NEW! Acid spells are NOT edited yet, I haven't decided if I'm gonna make some new Acid-specific SFX yet.
Mordant now supports all mods that change the Vanilla and Dragonborn DLC poison spell MGEFs through SkyPatcher in addition to the aforementioned perk mods.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 218 endorsements and over 133k downloads
- Enhances immersion by overhauling poison spell audio
- Skypatch support ensures compatibility with the latest patch
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects audio, so no visual or gameplay changes
- May conflict with other audio overhaul mods that touch the same sound files
- Compatibility with specific mods isn't detailed, so you might need to test with your load order
For Skyrim players who want more visceral poison spell sounds and already use Skypatch. If you're into audio immersion and don't mind a purely auditory change, this is for you. Skip if you're looking for gameplay or visual overhauls.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's an audio mod, make sure your load order places it after other mods that might alter the same sound files.
- If you use a mod manager, preview the sounds in-game to ensure they fit your preference.
- Check that Skypatch is installed and up to date, as this mod relies on it.
