Trace the footsteps of a dead man, gather his research, and make sense of it all using his unique workbench. However, the Reach is dangerous, and the Forsworn seek the very same treasures as you...

Corruption and Corrosion includes:
-A new undead enemy among the ranks of the Forsworn.
-4 summonable creatures
-2 unique acid-based spells
-A make-shift player home
And, of course:

HEART CORRUPTION
Using a unique broken sword, enchanted with forbidden magic, you can now corrupt and bloat the hearts of your enemies. Afterwards you can choose to save them as ingredients for later, or command them to assault your enemies.
As of 1.1 the sword can be melted into a ring, allowing all playstyles to make use of heart corruption!

"How do I start?"
Just East of Kolskeggr Mine is a corpse covered in thorns.
Attack and kill it, and read the journal beside him.
A new location will now be discoverable, "Ornellius' Study", just southwest of Old Hroldon.
Upon investigating this new location, the recipes for each of Ornellius' creations will be able to be found all throughout the Reach.

"Where Do I find them?"
The Forsworn are conducting a search of their own, and it is through them that you will be able to find Ornellius' research.
Forsworn Manhunters now roam the wilds of the Reach, and you will always find a recipe page near or on them.
Those that aren't hidden near the Manhunters have already been taken by the Forsworn, and are found in their camps! Every camp with a page will also have Corrupted undead nearby.

The locations for each recipe are:
Spoiler:  
Show
The body of the first Forsworn Manhunter.
The river just north of Ornellius' Study and South of the Karthspire Dragon Mound, in a safe.
In the Hagraven's tent at Karthspire Camp.
In a carved-out rock, North of the Reachcliff Cave Secret Entrance.
On the Hagraven's table in Cradle Stone Tower.


Spells included:

Arcane Acid:
Sprays a mist of acidic blood. Inflicts poison damage and induces Corrosion, lowering the target's attack damage.
Acidic Blast:
Shoots a concentrated ball of acidic blood. Inflicts poison damage and induces Corrosion.
Conjure Festering Remains:
Summons a Festering Corpse for 60 seconds.
Conjure Rotten Remains:
Summons a Rotten Corpse for 60 seconds.
Conjure Thrall of Thorns:
Summons a Thrall of Thorns for 60 seconds.
Conjure Ornellius:
Summons Ornellius' Shade from a mist of acidic blood for 60 seconds. Ornellius' Shade is able to summon Festering Remains in combat.


Known Problems:
Some recipe pages will not add the recipe after reading them for the first time. I can't figure out why, so simply make sure that you have read every single one twice before doing anything with them.

The Corrosive Sword also tends to refuse to work. This can be hard to notice because it's meant to have a lower chance of spawning hearts, but usually happens right after first obtaining the weapon. Equipping another weapon and then switching back to the sword should fix this in most cases. This also applies to the Corrosive Ring, which seems to be finnicky whenever you change your equipped weapons/spells.
