Gifts of the Outsider – Dishonored in Skyrim
Imagine if the worlds of Skyrim and Dishonored were merely different realities in the same universe. What if the Outsider, a being beyond worlds, could traverse across these realities? Well this mod explores that idea by bringing the Outsider, the void and Corvos abilities to Skyrim.
This mod adds the six signature abilities of Dishonored into Skyrim through a quest featuring fully voice acted Outsider.
The spells are as follows:
Blink: Leap across distances instantaneously.
Void Gaze: See in darkness and detect beings through walls
Devouring Swarm: Summon a horde of rats to distract or kill your opponents
Possession: Take control of a being, appearing directly behind them once the effect has ended.
Wind Blast: Blast away your opponents with a powerful gust of wind.
Bend Time: Slow time to a crawl for everyone but yourself. Great for escaping a difficult situation.
Shadow Kill: Enemies caught unaware are reduced to dust when dispatched with a kill move. Dust piles do not arouse suspicion with guards or other enemies.
If you wish to add the spells without completing the quest then simply use the help command from the console menu. Use help “” to return the spell id. Then use player.addspell to add it.
You can begin the quest by heading to abandoned houses on the shores of Lake Honrich, west of Riften. Inside you will find a book, ‘Spirit of the Deep’, pick it up and you will begin your journey.
Once you have left The Void you will be tasked with finding the runes of power. Here are their rough locations:
Void Gaze – This can be found beneath the walkway to the college of Winterhold
Devouring Swarm – This can be found beneath Riften, in the Ratway tunnels, after the Ragged Flagon.
Possession – Is located on a hill above Falkreath cemetery.
Wind Blast – In the mountains north of Markarth
Bend Time – In the hills north east of Solitude
Shadow Kill – In the volcanic tundra south of Windhelm
Thanks goes to the talented Matthew Wade for voicing the outsider. Check out his website if you are looking for an excellent voice actor.
Thanks also goes to Bethesda and Arkane Studios for making Dishonored. The inspiration behind the mod.
