Together, they make for a pretty lengthy list of sorcerous powers for players to hunt down. And although they aren't quite as numerous, Skyrim also introduced ' Shouts,' which are basically snippets of dragon language that have profound magical effects when uttered (or shouted, rather) by the Dragonborn. Although Skyrim may have done away with the beloved custom spell creation system of previous games in the series, there are still plenty of prefabricated magic for players to add to their arcane arsenal.
