📋 About This Mod
Hides 15 potions, each of which grants you 1 perk point, somewhere in the world. Some are easier to find than others. Very much OP in a vanilla setup, pretty underwhelming with some perk mods, but fine for my setup.
You can change how many perk points you get per potion with a global variable but don't set it above 1
Potions also have a pretty high value (if you feel like using them is too OP), so you can sell them.
No quest, no hints; pure exploration
I made this mod simply to hide some treasures in some dungeons as I think that there are next to no rewards for exploring in Skyrim.
The potions look like the Welkynd Stones simply because I like that appearance.
A patch to let it look like a more generic vanilla potion is in the optional files.
Mod is flagged as esl to not use up an esp slot
Might require the bsa files of the latest Skyrim SE version due to the Welkynd Stone meshes. I have no idea about that.

📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Simple concept that rewards exploration without hand-holding.
- Solid community traction with 163 endorsements and over 100k downloads.
- Lightweight addition that doesn't clutter your quest log.
⚠️ Cons
- No hints or quest markers means you'll be scouring every corner—could be frustrating.
- Potentially game-breaking in vanilla (OP) but nearly useless if you run perk overhauls.
- Compatibility risk with mods that alter perk point distribution or add new perks.
For Skyrim explorers who enjoy treasure hunts and want a tangible reward for scouring the map. Perfect for vanilla or lightly modded playthroughs. Skip if you use heavy perk overhauls or prefer guided quests.
