📋 About This Mod
This mod lets you hide unwanted spells (powers specifically) present in your magic inventory by adding them to the "Keyring" Power. When you use this power, it shows a list of all the powers you have added and lets you use them, if you wish. It uses a UIExtensions selection menu (similar to AddItemMenu's menus).
Add a power to the keyring using the MCM "Main" menu.
This mod was designed to let you only choose spells that appear in the Magic->Powers menu, but it is not perfect. Some mod authors have configuration powers that will not be detected by my mod. To ameliorate this, I added another menu to the MCM called "All Spells." This will let you choose any named spell present on the player to the keyring. Do not use this option unless you are certain what spell you want to add!
Known Issues:
1. 2 should fix issues with some spells not appearing on the All Spells page
Possible issue with unnamed spells being detected as powers by the mod. The result would be the list of powers available in the Main menu being truncated after the unnamed spell is encountered.
Future Plans:
Possibly implement an MCM-less version (would still require UIExtensions) <-- I really want to do this now because of all the trouble being caused by the MCM menus.
Powers Keyring is a utility mod for Skyrim that adds an MCM menu to hide unwanted powers, placing them in a sub-menu accessible via a power. It helps declutter your powers list from configuration spells added by other mods. With 644 endorsements and over 264k downloads, it's a popular quality-of-life tool, last updated in January 2021.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 644 endorsements and 264k downloads.
- Solves a real annoyance: cluttered powers list from mod config spells.
- Simple concept, easy to integrate into any modded playthrough.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2021 — may have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions or mods.
- Requires SkyUI and MCM, so it's not for players avoiding those dependencies.
- Only hides powers; doesn't offer other inventory management features.
For Skyrim modders who pile on gameplay mods and end up with a dozen configuration powers cluttering their magic menu. If you're tired of scrolling past 'MCM Helper' or 'FNIS' spells every time you open your powers, this is a must-have. Skip if you play vanilla or rarely use mods that add config powers.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure SkyUI is installed first, as the MCM won't appear without it.
- After installing, open the MCM and assign the keyring power to a hotkey for quick access.
- If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file placement to avoid overwriting issues.
