Birthsigns (Morrowind)

For other uses, see Birthsigns.

A Birthsign, in Tamriel, is a constellation under which a person can be born. A person born under a certain sign is bestowed various magical bonuses, ranging from increased magicka to a paralyzing kiss. These bonuses can be perceived as either a blessing or a curse.

Note: Abilities are permanent effects that cannot be removed. Spells act the same way as other spells in the game and cost magicka. Powers are special abilities or spells that can be used only once per day, and do not use magicka.
