LE Crow-Related Spell Deficiency?

[CRavencroft]

So I've been searching through what feels like a Throat of the World-sized pile of mods for the past few days in search of some crow/raven/generic-blackbird-C related spell that is more fulfilling than one perched on your shoulder, which is nice for what it is. So far, though, I haven't been able to find Jack Diddly. (He owes me tree fiddy.)

 

What I've been looking for is a nice spell or two or seven to give my current spellthief Nightingale character that little extra "umph." I was thinking a sort of Bioshock-esque "Murder of Crows" spell that would shoot crows out of your hand, or a cloak of crows that acts somewhat like the Dawnguard Vampire Lord bat cloak. Perhaps throwing in some poison damage for fun somewhere?

Perhaps a useful Vanilla-game asset, but contains possible Thieves Guild spoilers:

_{This game is ancient, why would this be spoilers lol}

When you meet Nocturnal in the Twilight Sepulcher, she appears in a storm of crows out of a portal in the ground. I was thinking perhaps this could be utilized, but switched axises so they fly out of the hand?

A reskinning of the vampire bats may work too, I'm really not sure how all of this black magic goes. :psyduck:

 

While we're here, though, perhaps we can open a general discussion of similar ideas. I've seen similar requests as to this one elsewhere, so the interest seems to be out there. Also, if it turns out I'm just super terrible at thinking up good keywords to search for a preexisting mod like this, post that here as well!

 

Thanks for reading, folks. :blush:

For the sake of helping others find similar themes, there's the Raven Witch Armor that is pretty neat. I wear the mask and cloak with another set of armor I installed.

 

So yeah, if anyone knows of any other crow/raven themed mods that may or may not be spell related, you may as well post them here too. Sharing is caring. :happy:

Doesn't sound too difficult surprisingly, I'll work on the "Murder of Crows" spell right now! I'm a busy person though so don't expect it finished by tomorrow, lol. Awesome idea! You may want to look threw "Midas Magic" and "Midas Magic Evolved", I'm almost certain that Midas doesn't have anything like this, but I've never tried evolved.

Actually, I lied, this might be done by tomorrow :tongue:

I actually did look through all those big Spell packs, which is why I was really shocked that something like this doesnt already exist. :P Like you said, it sounded pretty straight forward in my head. Perhaps the raven/crow thing is too cliche, haha.

But cool beans, man! I look forward to it. :)

Reminds me of the ravens Druids can summon in Diablo 2... :P

Sorry this is taking a little longer than expected, I'm having some major roadblocks with the NIF file...

[CRavencroft]

Don't worry, man! I'm just happy someone's doing it. :)
