Mods

Dark Maiden’s Road

The expansion in progress. New races, new classes and subclasses, two new chapters, and more throughout the chapters already there. The level cap is 20.

Transmuted Spell

A sorcerer metamagic that turns elemental spells into a fan of six damage types: acid, cold, fire, lightning, poison, and thunder. The spell’s own element stays free. Any other element costs one Sorcery Point. Other classes can take it with a built-in feat.

The mod.io edition needs no Script Extender and runs on console. The Nexus edition uses Script Extender, and an extended edition carries the same idea through higher-level spells.
