Starlight Magic
Cast spells without switching weapons. Four hotkeys, seventeen spells, and spell tomes you find, buy, and read to grow stronger — from your first trip into the Black Forest to the Ion Cannon.
Screenshots and the full description are on the Nexus Mods page.
Features
- No staff required — spells are bound to 4 keys (H / J / K / L). Keep your sword and shield in hand.
- 17 spells in 4 packs — attack, buffs, healing, status effects, summons, and travel.
- Swap, don't add — always 4 slots. Press U to open the spellbook and rebind them: a combat set for raids, a travel set for caves and cliffs.
- Spell tomes — learn a spell by reading its tome. Read more copies to raise its rank (Lv1–5): more damage, longer duration, cheaper casts. Each tome carries a line of Norse-flavoured lore.
- Three tiers — tier 1 tomes appear right after Eikthyr, tier 2 after the Elder, tier 3 only from the dangerous places.
- Uses vanilla Eitr — and adds a small base Eitr pool (+30) so you can cast before eating mage food.
- Saved per character — known spells, ranks, and slot layout are stored on the character.
- English / Japanese — all text lives in JSON files; add a folder to translate.
