Skyrim Improved Magic System

Overview:

This mod aims to improve and overhaul Skyrim's Magic system, in a similar vein to that of LAME for Oblivion.
- More Spells
- Balanced Magic
- Spells that scale with the player
- Magic Skills perk overhaul
- Selection of staring spells

Note that new spells can be found distributed through the world, and can be found in dungeons or at the magic vedors.
All the spells are added to appropriate leveled lists, so you'll have to wait a few days before they appear, and they
won't all appear at once, so keep your eye out!
