About this mod Machine translation
Added a book to High Cultists that allows students to shout words based on shout cooldown driven experience.
Update: V1.1 released, MCM menu added. Added the ability to customize which shouts can be learned and modify experience settings.
If you're like me, you probably wanted to run a Greybeard on Skyrim, downloaded Thunderchild by EnaiSiaion, completed the first mission, and then realized that figuring out all those words was a huge pain. Random locations given by Arngeir, shouts of quests being locked behind factions and other such nonsense.
This mod adds a passive spell effect that will randomly teach one of 27 shouts after generating shout experience based on the shout cooldown. It will choose one of the 27 shouts, then check if you know any words and will teach the next word in the line. Throwing sounds are not included, just go to Shearpoint, which would be a waste of upgrade space. This does not remove the shout, the Dragon Soul is still required.
Other than placing the book in High Hrothgar, there are no original records that have been modified. Source code provided for the curious. Experience variables can be adjusted via the MCM menu.

If you're like me, you may have wanted to do a Greybeard run through Skyrim, downloaded Thunderchild by EnaiSiaion, completed the first quests and then realized that getting all of the words is a huge pain in the ass.

This mod adds a passive spell effect that will randomly teach one of the 27 shouts after accruing shout experience based on the shout cooldown. It picks one of the 27 shouts then checks to see if you know any words and will teach the next word in the line. Throw Voice not included, just go to Shearpoint, would be a waste of level up. This does not unlock the shout, dragon souls are still required.
No vanilla records modified aside from placing the book in High Hrothgar. Source code included for those who are curious. Experience variables can be adjusted via MCM menu.
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
