Hmm a shout for calling a Dragon to help you in battles does allready exist....

yes, but not one that specifically calls a dragon to take away the npc.

Ahh now i get it.... hmmm but then we need also a Dragons Lair where we can find these poor NPC`s .....or just its bodys. Depends on the Dragon you choose for this kidnaping action

I would avoid anything that exactly duplicates something already available to the player, such as the frenzy idea.

yea a Dragon lair would be awesome. It could have jail cells and Ancient Nord warriors as jail guards. The player will have the ability release the prisoners when ever he/she chooses. If you deside you still dont like them... execution time :hubbahubba:

For this Mod I could make the executioner a creep whom collects the heads of his...
um...
clients. Conveniently displayed on shelved in the collector's hall.
Lol that a good name for the executioner

Even if it's in a different form? Shout or spell. Not everyone would have the spell. But I see what you mean. I think I'm going to add 3 new shouts (unless I get a few more really solid ideas) so I'll be picking the best of all the ideas. Probably dropping frenzy. Possibly the fire weapon... not sure.

Shouts to add:
THIS IS SPARTA
FORTH EOR LINGAS
FOR ELEN DIL

But in all seriousness yes this is a good idea.

Firstly are you making ur mod available to everyone? If so thank you I'm doing something similar and would like to help you to save us both time and effort. Also I piled three. The three I intended to add were:

Meteor storm/rain meteors from sky/ available after defeating alduin

100% chameleon/self explanatory

Flight/allows u to fly

Of course my mod will be available to everyone, why wouldn't it be?

For my shouts I'll be sticking to smaller scale ones you can use anywhere (like inside), so you can do the meteor one, and I won't do anything like that. Be careful with flight though. It would have to be very brief or it could be game breaking.

It is brief. More like floating. Oh also did you want to collaborate?

Thanks for the offer, but I'm going to be making this mod on my own. I've tried working with other people on things before and it's my experience that it's difficulty to do unless you can actually work in person with them. Plus I think I'll only be adding 2 or 3 shouts so that part is so minor. But we can still make sure that we don't both add the same shouts to the game.

DOVAH NAL ZOOL : unlocks the power of your dragon soul, basicly its got the etheral form effect except its made out of fire, buffs up your damage by 10x you take very little damage from everything and a huge bonus to speed. it has a very long cool down timer and should really be only able to obtain it when your at least lvl 50 maybe you hav to kill a dragon thats got **** loads of health.

Ehhh that sounds almost overpowered. I think much milder shouts would be better. I'll leave the megashouts to Bethesda.

Do the majority of you really think I should add more than 5? If so I'd love some ideas on what kinds of shouts you guys want... and keep in mind, this is not just a mod to add shouts. It's essentially a DLC like the Shivering Isles (In size, though maybe more like 60% as big) and new shouts are just a small part of it. So I don't exactly want to add a whole bunch more...

I am waiting for a "Kamehameha" shout!

I like the idea of more shouts, as per a number I don't have a REAL say on it, def more then 5 could be used...but like others have said it would be good if it sounds it out...also the flesh to stone effect I'm not fond of..only because it's too much like ethereal and the fact that it's stone says that it'd be more for physical attacks...especially with ice being one of the spell choices...perhaps maybe instead of immune to all make it immune to shock with about say 50-75% reduced physical dmg? However a flesh to some form of metal that is resistance to fire(never been good with elemental properties of metals) would be where fire would be the immunity and I'd say slightly higher physical resistance...but as well make one for immunity to ice such as flesh to ice? but a slightly lower than stone possibly even make it completely weakened to physical attacks altogether...(always have to have some form or another of a weakening effect to balance out bonuses depending on the grade of said effects...for instance using the other forms might reduce ones attack and movement speed completely...possibly even casting speed if you were a mage...)

Edit: after reading that i thought possibly also adding a weakness to the opposed elements...metal gives shock weakness...ice gives fire weakness...stone gives ice weakness...etc..

Add as many as fit in the story line.

A really powerfull shout which also consumes an excess dragon soul would be nice, gives us something to do with them (or perhaps a way to put them into soul gems, legendary soul gem anybody?)

1. "shadow... or some name like that I dunno" like in chronicles of riddike where his body froze, he became etheral, and he could sprint- then time sped up and his physical body rushed to re-unite with him. Only you can move up down left and right and stuff, like sprint up to a ledge above you or whatever. Or at least jump 2x-3x higher while time is "stopped" during this move. The entire etheral period, time stop would be 8-10 seconds. Can be used.. what twice per day? Basically like nightcrawler as well I guess, badass for a rogue to do it, run behind someone- sneak- and get a backstab off an enemy.

2. "Dragon Flight" A super high jump that lets you glide or fall back down slowly, good for exploring or getting up mountains, can be used as often as liked. (as often as current shouts)

More shouts? Bring it on!

Shouts are, marvelously, an excellent lore-laden excuse to add "overpowered" magic with unusual or extraordinary effects to the game. I'm looking forward to modded shouts, not so much for the power that will come with them as for the creative and strange effects they might bring.

What do you mean by that? Like just, as many as I can spread around throughout the story without it being too cluttered? Because they actually have absolutely nothing to do with the story of my mod, they are simply there to counteract the dragons in my land. (And therefor extra souls) So you would get them at places that have nothing to do with the story. So do you mean more of a "How many you can fit well into the land?" Type thing? Because at 3 words each, I'm thinking 3 or 4 right now.

levitation shout: hold space to increase elevation slowly. quick duration, yet long enough for it to be effective and not overpowered/abusive

Anyone else thinking a shout to remove armor? No..... just me ..... I'll get my coat

Obviously I wasn't thinking in a pervy way, purely tactical

LOL i like it :3 not in a pervy way ;3

Those would be pretty cool, I'd like to see them done if possible. I'd also like to see one that can transform the player into a creature temporarily if possible.

I considered this, but my version was simply a 'slow fall' of sorts. Instead of dropping straight down, you glide gently down in the direction you left the last surface you were on. It could be used to cross huge gaps that could not be jumped (where the destination is still below the start position, of course).
