1. Introduction  Hey there! This is my first mod that isn't a simple texture swap so If you'll find any bugs make sure to report them!

Overlord Magic is a mod which main purpose is to bring Overlord into Skyrim. Mod adds over 800: spells (with scroll and staff variants), many unique items, weapons, armors, locations (huge worldspaces and player dungeons), quests all with unique models, sounds and uses all based on the light novel series called "Overlord". I tried my best to make all the spells and items as vanilla as possible and at the same time make them similar to their novel counterparts. That includes spell tome prices, damage and mana costs, all based on vanilla raw data. Eg. Most expensive vanilla spell is "Fire Storm" and costs 1426 magicka per use. Most expensive spell in this mod costs somewhere around 1600 magicka. Same scaling goes for damage and prices.

Almost all spells are, like the name suggest, for a Overlord like character build. In other words most spells are master level and have high requirements to use (like having level 50 for example). Almost all are mid/end game spells, but there are a few low tier ones too!

Spell powers mostly focus on alteration, illusion and conjuration and are either altering your opponents values, summoning powerful minions or crushing their hearts.

Just to clarify any confusion - this is not an "anime" mod! This is an "anime inspired" mod. Meaning you will not find over the top designs, locations, npc that scream "anime". No big eyes and "round" body proportions that completely stick out from vanilla game style-wise. Mod still very much follows vanilla/skyrim NPC/spell/location design style and should fit most type of playthroughs. So you may try it
