About this mod
Introduces a small and (hopefully) unintrusive system of 10 extra attributes into Skyrim, allowing you to customize your character even more.
- Permissions and credits
Some of you might think this seems familiar to the mod Attribute Value Application (AVA) by DrPharmDawg, and you would be correct!
I wanted to learn how to write SKSE plugins for a while now, and since i could not come up with a creative idea, i decided to rewrite AVA as a plugin.
With his permission, i am proud to now present this to you, CARE - Core Attribute Remaster & Expansion.
What it does
This mod introduces 10 new attributes that influence your character:
Strength, Fortitude, Endurance, Intelligence, Wisdom, Perception, Agility, Dexterity, Charisma & Luck.
Each attribute is scaled from 1 to 20, whith 10 being the neutral and giving neither bonus nor a penalty.
Most attributes have a negative influence when below 10, but some attributes effects only start scaling when higher than 10.
Your baseline attributes are 9 across the board. Your choice of Sex and Race gives you a starting bonus on top of that.
Each time you reach level 50 and level 100 in a skill, you get a prompt with 3 attributes associated with that skill, which allows you to increase an attributes by one point.
The following settings can be adjusted via the .ini file:
It is possible to change the limit to be higher than 20, however more than half of the effects are only implemented to work up to 20. I will mark those that have an effect above 20 with a * below.
You can find the current bonuses by hovering over the respective attribute in the MCM

Feel free to make a pull request if you notice obvious mistakes or how to make the code more robust, as this is my first project in C++.
In the same vein, feel free to suggest additional things that i could add/change! Depending on how easy to implement and how much i like it, i might consider it.

The following settings can be adjusted via the .ini file:
- Base attributes (Default = 9 in every attribute)
- Sex and race bonus
- Attribute limit (Default = 20)
- Skill level at which to increase attributes (Default = 50, so every 50 levels)
- What attributes are offered for each skill (Can be increased to more than 3, or lowered down to a single choice)
- It is possible to make a custom race compatible with this mod by adding the EditorID underneath [RaceSettings] with an attribute array
It is possible to change the limit to be higher than 20, however more than half of the effects are only implemented to work up to 20. I will mark those that have an effect above 20 with a * below.
