LE Soul-specific enchant bonuses

[alephnaught]

From the days of Morrowind it always struck me as strange that we have all of these weird and wonderful creatures' souls to capture, yet the only difference it makes to all of our weird and wonderful enchanting is the size of the soul.

 

Wouldn't it be cool if, for example, a Flame Atronach soul gave hefty bonuses to fire-based enchantments? A Vampire soul gave bonuses to Absorb Health? Spriggans to Restoration buffs? The possibilities are endless.

 

Unique & Boss type monsters would, of course, have their own unique and powerful bonuses.

 

Gotta catch 'em all! :dance:

This is a wonderful idea!

 

One way to do it would be to put an item, like an enchanted ring or necklace, on the creature you kill.

Then the player could Disenchant that item to learn the enchantment.

 

I don't know how you'd get the soul to match up to the creature?? Because my Creation-Kit-Fu is weak.

Maybe create a new soul type?

 

Bears - could help you resist Frost and improve your strength in 1 hand, 2 hand, and unarmed strikes. Maybe you can make boots and gauntlets out of his hide?

You could do it through Keywords fairly easily I should think. Though it would take lots of time.
