Spells, getting into the guts of them, are really fun to mod. So far I've been making spells that use the arrow projectile. Constant spray of arrows, one-off powerful arrows that disintegrate while freezing solid, giant clouds of arrows from the sky, and arrows that explode into AOE bursts of further arrows that spawn mudcrabs, all at the tips of your fingers!

Make a spell that consumed a random poison in your inventory and launches a projectile with that poison's effect. :P

Y'know, with the new DLC content coming out, I might finally have a place to store all my books in Skyrim. Seriously, at least a quarter of my carrying capacity is taken up by books at any one time. And buying houses can only provide so much storage space.

Same here. Well, I'm already dumping all books which don't look interesting so it's not quite a quarter yet, but I really need a place for those damn books.

You dump books? I'm kinda making it a point to collect all the books in the game. Well, one of each book. Not every single book. Because that would involve stealing. But still, it's really taking its toll.

Yeah, some books are kinda funny. There is this one children's book thats basically a "take your path" kind of thing. Like: page 7: Do X! (go to page 15) Do Z! (go to page 13)

Man. I've so gotta find that. My favourite books has to be the one with all those myths about Sheogorath. Driving a wizard mad by doing nothing at all FTW!

There is a mod that changes your bookshelf's capacity to be based on model size instead of a fixed number. That fixed number is just how many of the largest books will fit. With the vast majority of books being smaller than that, you can hold much, much more per shelf.

Skyrim Redone (SkyRe) and SkyUI are enough. :P

But it really depends on what you want. Hardcore realism? There is frostfall and complex needs so you must eat/drink and you are affected by weather for example.

I'm not so much into realism as I'm into rule of awesome and rule of cool.
