Kevin VanNord's Tools of the Trade (NOT AS OP)

The great Dovahkiin Kevin VanNord, rumored to have the ability to alter the very fabric of Skyrim, has left for his followers a great and powerful sword. This Kevin VanSword is similar to a Dwarven Greatsword, save for two things: For one, it was designed to be light enough to be wielded with one hand, that Kevin VanNord could smite twice as many enemies in half the time. The other, that it is supposedly enchanted with strange magicks unlike any other. Known as the Kevinchantment, this power gives the Kevin VanSword the might of the elements, dealing Fire, Frost, and Shock Damage, while also Soul Trapping any foe unfortunate enough to cross blades with this legendary Dragonborn.

One follower of Kevin VanNord, knowing the art of weaponizing chickens much as Kevin VanNord himself was known for doing, attempted to replicate Kevin VanNord's ability to summon chickens. While it is not a perfect replica, as the power of VanNord was such that he could summon hundreds of chickens without wasting a bit of magicka, this spell makes it possible for the common mage to follow in the legendary VanNord's footsteps, to some extent. The anonymous follower has since written a Tome revealing the art of Chicken Conjuring to whosoever should read it.

After years of training in the art of the Voice, as well as years of study into the mighty chicken, Kevin VanNord was able to create the ultimate Rikmah Thu'um -- the Chicken Shout, Chicken's Might. The Words of Power that make up this shout are Rok, meaning Hen, Bo, meaning Fly, and Kaag, meaning Explode. Rok shoots out a chicken that will explode on impact. Rok Bo shoots out a chicken that explodes with the force of 10 chickens on impact.. Rok Bo Kaag shoots out a chicken that, on contact, explodes with the force of 100 chickens. (Doesn't require the explosive chickens mod, but the comparison is to the explosive chickens explosions) (NOTE: At the moment there is no legitimate way to obtain the Rikmah Thu'um, so you just need to use the console. Use the following commands:
player.addshout xx00285c
player.teachword xx002859
player.teachword xx00285a
player.teachword xx00285b
Also if you don't want to use Dragon Souls, just use these codes afterward.
player.unlockword xx002859
player.unlockword xx00285a
player.unlockword xx00285b
the "xx" in each id is the code for the mods position in your load order. You can find out what that is by using the command
help "Chicken's Might"
You should get a result that has the Chicken's Might shout, along with an 8-digit ID. The first two digits should replace EVERY "xx" above.)

Now, Farengar Secret-Fire has discovered these artifacts, and has them displayed not far from the entrance to Dragonsreach. All you need to do is take them and all the might of Kevin VanNord shall be in your hands.

Eventually I plan to add in word walls that will teach you Chicken's Might, but until I do, I feel I should tell you what they will say, because I did find them pretty amusing when I thought them up.

The first will say "Het nok Nugget faal ROK. Rek lost duliig," which translates to "Here lies Nugget the HEN. She was delicious."

The second will say "Het nok Hahnud. Rok lor rok vust BO. Rok vust ni," which translates to "Here lies Dreamer. He thought he could FLY. He could not."

The third and final will say "Het nok Kevin. Uv fos los vahlt do mok. Wo drey mindok rikmahhe vust KAAG? Nii fund fon tol Kevin drey," which translates to "Here lies Kevin. Or what's left of him. Who knew chickens could EXPLODE? It would seem that Kevin did."

Update v1.1: Fixed the problem with the conjured chickens not exploding, at the price of the spell summoning normal chickens as opposed to spectral chickens

Update v1.2: Fixed the animation glitch where the sword would be invisible AND makes this mod independent of the Explosive Chickens mod so that chickens will explode with or without the original mod.

Update v1.3: Added the Chicken's Might shout.

NOTE: This is NOT the same mod featured in the video. That mod is uploaded as Kevin VanNord's Tools of the Trade OP. This is a version I made to make it less OP, so hopefully this will appeal to those of you who aren't quite so into the whole one-hit-kill thing.
