Features

  • Freyr replaces all standing stone effects.
  • To increase variety and replay value, standing stones are now based on player race.
  • Futhark project: Freyr integrates with race overhaul Mannaz.

New standing stones

Argonian

  • Apprentice - Regrow Limbs: Argonians regenerate 5% of maximum Health per second below 25% Health.
  • Atronach - Hist Spores: Caustic Spit causes creatures and people to attack randomly for 20 seconds.
  • Lady - Swamp Dweller: Argonian blood grants 50% Disease Resist.
  • Lord - Dissolve: Caustic Spit turns targets below 20% Health into ash.
  • Lover - Waterhome: Amphibious also restores Magicka and Stamina.
  • Mage - Caustic Burn: Caustic Spit lasts twice as long.
  • Ritual - Blood in the Water: Argonians gain 25% attack damage and critical damage whenever there is a nearby foe below 25% Health.
  • Serpent - Basilisk: Caustic Spit paralyzes targets for 3 seconds.
  • Shadow - Swamp Poison: Argonians reduce the Poison Resist of nearby foes within 20 feet by 25%.
  • Steed - Polished Scales: Ampihibious increases swim speed by an additional 100%.
  • Thief - Chameleon: Argonians are 25% harder to detect when standing still.
  • Tower - Melt Lock: While Caustic Spit is hitting a locked object, the lock is trivial to pick. (This effect has no duration.)
  • Warrior - Histskin: Argonians regenerate an additional 2% of their maximum Health per second.

Health regeneration underwater is 100 points per second, unaffected by Survival Mode. This balances out the warmth penalty Survival Mode applies to Argonians.

Breton

Freyr changes the effects granted by the Breton racial ability Stones of Galen in Mannaz (additional standing stone effect) from generic effects to Freyr specific effects. As a result, each Breton standing stone effectively has two abilities:

  • Apprentice - Arcane Initiate: Once per battle, Bretons may activate a foe to deal random elemental damage equal to half your Destruction level.
  • Apprentice - Dragonheart: Power attacks, bashes and sneak attacks deal random elemental damage equal to half your Destruction level.
  • Atronach - Coven Magic: The Atronach improves your spells and scrolls by 50% by consuming a Briarheart, Human Heart or Human Flesh from your inventory.
  • Atronach - Wyrdcraft: The Atronach grants 15% chance to find a Human Heart or Human Flesh on humans they kill.
  • Lady - Blessing of the Lake: The Lady grants 20% chance to absorb incoming spells, adding their Magicka to yours.
  • Lady - Kingmaker: The Lady periodically gifts you gold or a small valuable or enchanted item.
  • Lord - Crown of Autumn: Power attacks deal 30% more damage and critical damage, but Stamina does not regenerate in combat.
  • Lord - Old Stone: Able to power attack when out of Stamina, dealing 50% less damage and critical damage.
  • Lover - Poetry in Motion: Bretons become ethereal when entering combat, for up to 15 seconds or until they attack.
  • Lover - Slam Poetry: When breaking out of ethereal state before its duration runs out, release a Warstomp that staggers nearby foes.
  • Mage - Arcane Mastery: Breton spells and scrolls are 15% more effective.
  • Mage - Mage's Path: All Mage skills improve 15% faster.
  • Ritual - Druidom: When a staff is drawn, spells are 50% more powerful but cost 50% more Magicka.
  • Ritual - Circle of Galen: Magicka does not regenerate. When a staff is drawn, drains its charge level to replenish Magicka.
  • Serpent - Dark Constellation: In combat, the unstars in the Serpent disable Magicka and Stamina regeneration and drain 5 points per second.
  • Serpent - Star Curse: The effects of Dark Constellation are inflicted on all nearby foes within 33 feet.
  • Shadow - Dead Noon: Holding a drawn bow will mark foes after 1 second per 25 Health. Shooting a marked foe deals a critical strike for 10 times critical damage.
  • Shadow - Outlaw: Bretons move 20% faster while holding a drawn bow.
  • Steed - Horsemanship: Bretons are adept at handling horses, improving the speed of their horse and that of nearby allies by 25%.
  • Steed - Roadside Rest: Bretons regenerate Magicka and Stamina 50% faster when standing still with hands down.
  • Thief - Shadow Mastery: Bretons are 15% harder to detect when sneaking and deal 15% extra sneak attack damage.
  • Thief - Thief's Path: All Thief skills improve 15% faster.
  • Tower - Iron Mask: While in combat, sneaking is 50% better and sneak attacks deal 25% extra damage.
  • Tower - The Donjon: Bretons may activate a living target while sneaking and out of combat to put the target in a mental slumber for 20 seconds or until struck by an attack. Costs 50 Magicka.
  • Warrior - Combat Mastery: Bretons deal 15% extra attack damage and critical damage.
  • Warrior - Warrior's Path: All Warrior skills improve 15% faster.

Circle of Galen will drain your left hand staff first if two staves are equipped, and then drain your right hand staff once it is depleted. Drain is 25 points per second, and you gain 100% faster Magicka regeneration in the process. Crown of Autumn and Old Stone work against each other for a total of 62.5% power attack damage when out of Stamina. Kingmaker gives an item every 10-20 minutes on average. The Donjon prevents the target from spotting you while sneaking or seeing you as an enemy, cancels their combat alarm status, and increases pickpocket chance by 20%.

Dark Elf

  • Apprentice - Spirit Walker: Ancestral Protector is now available once per battle instead of once per day.
  • Atronach - Ashlander: Dark Elven blood grants an additional 25% Fire Resist.
  • Lady - Walk Alone: Dark Elves regenerate an additional 1% of their maximum Magicka and Stamina per second.
  • Lord - Heart of Ash: (At-will power for 25 Magicka) Sacrifice 10 Health per second to improve attacks, critical strikes and spells by 30%. Cast again to disable.
  • Lover - Ancestral Hearth: Ancestral Protector will also attack foes set on fire by Fireblood. This still consumes a daily activation.
  • Mage - Spite: Dark Elves are up to 25% more effective with spells as Health decreases.

  • Tower - Unwelcome Guest: Able to expend Fireblood to open any lock of expert level or below.
  • Warrior - Dishonor: Dark Elves deal 20% extra attack damage and critical damage if the target is alone.

The Faerielight upgrades replace your Faerielight effect, removing the original effect. A new Inborn Magic spell trigger can only be set once a day, but once set, it can activate an unlimited number of times. Minor magical effects last 15-30 seconds (based on the condition) and include: restore 2% Health per second, restore 2% Magicka per second, restore 2% Stamina per second, 150 points of armor, 25% magic resistance, move 15% faster, or 15% extra attack damage. Faerielight drains 5 Magicka at level 1, +4 Magicka per level.

Khajiit

  • Apprentice - Night Eye: (At will) Improved night vision for 60 seconds.
  • Atronach - At the Crossroads: Khajiit receives a large sum of gold, but must pay it back with interest when the Atronach Stone is relinquished, or else...

  • Lord - Knead: Khajiit can power attack with single claws while sneaking, and claw damage is improved by 10 points.

  • Warrior - Swagger: Khajiit takes 5% less damage from power attacks for each digit of gold carried, up to 50%.

At the Crossroads allows you to choose either 1K, 10K or 100K gold, or to opt out of the Atronach Stone entirely. Interest is 10% and losing the Atronach Stone ability without having the required sum of gold in your inventory leads to death. Lunar Rush is an animation cancel and can be used to get out of power attack commitments, crossbow reloads or to avoid incoming damage. Whiskers grants an average of about 10 gold per kill.

Nord

  • Apprentice - Elder of Runes: The Apprentice transfers half of base Stamina regeneration to Magicka.
  • Atronach - Shamanic Trance: All-Maker Stone powers used during Rage are returned to you if Rage is maintained for a further 8 seconds.
  • Lady - Dream Journey: Sleeping grants a random All-Maker Stone power if you do not already have one.

  • Tower - Frith: Rage heals you for half of the Magicka drained.
  • Warrior - Bear's Strength: Nord strength grants an additional 100 points of armor.

Elder of Runes almost doubles base Magicka regeneration due to the discrepancy between base Stamina regeneration (5%) and base Magicka regeneration (2.5%). All-Maker Stone effects will tie into an upcoming Futhark mod. Attacks of opportunity are a Valravn feature and result in extra damage when attacking an enemy from behind or while taking certain actions; Freyr no longer requires Valravn, but consult the Valravn mod page for more information.

  • Warrior - Coyote: Deal 25% extra attack damage and critical damage to opponents if you are currently stronger than them.

Effects that trigger "if you are stronger than your opponents" take into account current number of opponents, level difference and current Health difference, so they will always activate at some point during any fight. Adrenaline Rush and Shahrazad replace your Shehai effect, removing the original effect. Adrenaline Rush has the same duration as Shehai. Shahrazad has the same duration as Shehai and spawns with a random Destruction and Conjuration staff based on level, dealing 1% of base Destruction damage per point of Magicka and 1% of base Conjuration duration per point of Stamina. Jinniya of the Lamp grants a wish every 1001 minutes (16 hours and 41 minutes), granting a choice of 100K-500K gold + 20-40 rare items; +10-20 to each attribute; +2-4 perk points; or +5-10 dragon souls. There is a countdown on the effect in your Magic Effects list.

Firewatch and Hunter's Eye linger for 10 seconds after breaking Wild Senses, giving you a chance to attack them and activate the effects.

Installation

This mod can be installed during a playthrough, but a new game is recommended because Skyrim may not be able to cleanly replace standing stone abilities after starting the game.
