This is the perfect compliment to a vampire character or a necromancer. Ever want to shapeshift? Now is your chance. This spell lets you change into a variety of creature/monsters from the game. For the vampires, you can turn into mist and a bat form. Of course, normal characters can use this also. Another feature of this mod is the "spell stealing" aspect. You can supposedly rip spells from other people's heads.

NEW TO VERSION 1.5
------------------
Fixed problem where if you mind scanned one of the scripted spell sellers,
their spells would never leave the mind scan or mind rip spell list.

******************************************************************

DESCRIPTION
-----------

Transform into creatures that can be seen in 3rd person view.

Steal spells from enemies minds.

Add explosive damage to your attacks.

Create walls of fire and animated bones.

Game balanced: Great care has been taken to ensure spells cost enough magicka
for their power. Transformations disable hand held weapon use and most spellcasting.
Wall spells require strategy to be effective. Stealing spells is a crime unless they
attacked you first.

This mod adds new spells created through scripting and new npc's who sell them.

******************************************************************

LOCATION OF NPCS
----------------
Mages guild- Ald-ruhn mages guild
Telvanni- Sadrith Mora (she is outside shopping at the market)
Vampire Clan Aundae - Clan Aundae headquarters near their leader
Vampire Clan Berne - Clan Berne headquarters near their leader
Vampire Clan Quarra - Clan Quarra headquarters near their leader
Vampire - Pelagiad Halfway Tavern during night time hours

The mortal NPC's teach you if you are a member of their faction.
The clan vampire NPC's teach you after you have done the first quest of their clan.
The non clan vampire teaches vampires after you have done a small quest for her.


*****************************************************************

TRANSFORMATION SPELLS
---------------------
The metamorphosis spells lasts 60 seconds.
The form spells are permanent until you cancel them.
This means you could fly all the way to Solsheim with a single casting of bat form.
You can cancel the transformation by casting the Cancel Transformation spell
which requires no magicka.
Low cost vampire versions of the bat, mist and wolf spells exist from vampire npc's.
Werewolfs receive low cost werewolf versions of black, brown, white wolf spells when they
first cast the normal version of that spell.

Natural weapons attacks like bite use the handtohand combat skill:
It may seem to use the shortblade skill but actually it is the hand to hand
skill that is used and increased. This is how it works:
When you transform, your handtohand skill is copied into your shortblade skill.
Any increases in skill are applied to your handtohand skill.
When you transform back your shortblade skill returns to its old value.


*****************************************************************

SPELL STEALING SPELLS
---------------------
These rip spells from the minds of your enemies teaching them to you.
This causes permanent brain damage to your victim and saves you money.
Each spell has touch range.

To use these, cast the spell on the npc, wait about 1 second for them to be
affected by the spell, then press spacebar on the npc within the 5 seconds duration
of the spell.

They consider it an attack for all these spells except the passive brain scan.

Crimes:
If someone spots you useing these spells they can report the following crimes:
Assault - Using any of these spells (except passive brain scan) unless the target
attacked you first.
Theft- Stealing spells unless the target attacked you first.

Once their brain has become too badly damaged you will no longer be able to
access any more of their spells.

Occasionally during a combat a target may become too angry for mind rips to work
on them.
When this happens the message "This characture is in combat" will appear.
If this happens, waiting for 3 days will reset their fight setting so you can try again.

These spells were invented by the arch lich Zahnodram who was rumored to keep
wizards alive for days in his dungeons contineously stealing their spells and
then healing their minds with restoration magics.

Brain Scan (active) - Allows you to check what spells they have.
Brain scan (passive) - As active scan but they dont consider it an attack.
Mind rip I - Steal spells up to a total value of 100 gold.
Mind rip II - Steal spells total value 200 gold
Mind rip III- Steal spells total value 400 gold
Mind rip IV - Steal spells total value 800 gold
Mind rip V - Steal spells total value 1600 gold
Mind rip VI - Steal spells total value 3200 gold


******************************************************************

EXPLOSIVE STRIKE SPELLS
-----------------------
These last 60 seconds.
Each attack you make with a weapon or hand to hand causes an explosion.
These spells are designed to be used together.
If you cast all of them there isn't much that can withstand your attacks.
Explosive strike spells do NOT yet work while you are transformed.

Explosive Strike - Fire Explosion of 1-20 fire damage
Explosive Strike - FrostExplosion of 1-20 frost damage
Explosive Strike - paralysis Explosion of 1 second paralysis
Explosive Strike - poison Explosion of 1-20 poison damage
Explosive Strike - ShockExplosion of 1-20 shock damage


****************************************************************

WALL SPELLS
-----------
Each type of wall comes in 5 ranks, so a rank 5 wall of fire does 100 damage per second.

Wall Range Allows you to set the distance walls will be created
from you.

Walls of fire Damage (20 x rank)
Duration 60 seconds

Walls of ice *** WALLS OF ICE ARE NOT IN CURRENT RELEASE ***
Health (100 x rank) for each block of ice
lose one health per second.
Take double damage from fire.
Enemies will attack them to get to you.

Walls of bone Health (20 x rank) for each skeleton
Damage (1 to 4) x rank
Duration 60 seconds
This means a rank 1 wall skeleton is half as powerful
as a normal summoned skeleton.
A rank 2 is equal to a normal summoned skeleton.
A rank 5 is two and a half times as powerful
as summoned skeleton.

The vampire transformations are the same as the mortal versions except they
cost half the amount of magicka and automatically succeed. This is because vampires
are better at changing into bats, mist and wolves than mortals.

As in daggerfall, Vampire charm mortal and vampire flight are low cost versions of
the standard mortal spells charm mortal and levitate.
As it is flight not levitate, the vampire version doesnt give a purple glow.

The werewolf transformations are the same as the mortal versions except they
cost half the amount of magicka and automatically succeed. This is because werewolfs
are better at changing into wolves than mortals.

****************************************************************

KNOWN ISSUES
------------
1. It is very hard to fight in 3rd person mode if transformed into a large creature
like a guar, bear or cliffracer. I lower the model in combat to try to make it easier.
2. Many transformations are best used outside as they are too clumsy for
easy indoors movement unless in 1st person mode.
3. Any transformation may jump in and out when in 3rd person mode if you
have a very slow framerate. Slow framerates may be due to a low end
machine, or may be due to another mod that attempts to do too much each frame.
