Skyrim Mod Lets Players Cast Magic with A Lute That Can Play Custom Music
It's fair to say that The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim is making the most out of its time in the spotlight. However, many would agree that it's time to move on. But with Bethesda currently concentrating on Starfield, it could be a while before fans hear any more details about TES6. In the meantime, there are numerous ways to extend the playtime of the 2011 open-world epic. There are tons of mods out there that can make a difference to the world of Tamriel, sometimes involving music.
As spotted by PCGamer, a user known as Monitor144 has created an add-on for Skyrim for those who like to mix magic with music. Called «Bard Magic Overhaul — Cast Like a Bard,» this mod will allow players to cast spells on their enemies through the power of their lute playing. A video by YouTuber Mern shows it in action, with the Dragonborn playing the instrument, which then emits a damaging spell on attackers. The most interesting thing about this is that it allows for custom music to be added. According to the mod description page, it should be as simple as replacing the sound file with something else.

Being a bard in Skyrim is not really something that's possible in the vanilla build of the game. However, via the might of the modding community, there are ways that players can bring out their inner musician. This one by Monitor144 is one example, but there was also another released last year called «Skyrim's Got Talent.» Thanks to modder JaySpera, fans can now don a lute and show off their plucking prowess in Tamriel.
There are simply tons of incredible mods out there for Skyrim, which probably accounts for why the game is still going strong, despite releasing more than a decade ago.
