MagicEdit

The Magic tab includes the available Spells to the player. There is a category for each school, over the submenus "all" and "favorites". This section also shows all learned Dragon shouts. The magic tab also is where the player unlocks shouts and keeps track of dragon souls taken. Lastly, this tab is where can find their active effects, including any diseases they might have.

FavoritesEdit

Favorited items or spells will be marked with an asterisk and Equipped items will be marked with an arrow. After an item or spell is Favorited, it can be quickly accessed from a list of all the Favorites using the "Q" button on PC.

Favorited items can also be bound to the number keys. This can be done by opening the Favorites menu and pressing a number key. The selected favorite can then be quickly equipped by pressing the number key that the item/spell was bound to.

SkillsEdit

In the Skills menu, the player "looks to the stars". The player then scrolls across and can choose between all the skills (magic colleges, classes e.t.c). When the player gains skill points he/she may choose one of the many Perks if he has level or more points than the required skill points.

As the player chooses perks, a Constellation appears.

MapEdit

The Map in Skyrim zooms out from your current position and is used to access the journal. The triggers zoom in and out when the map is accessed and the "A" (Xbox 360) or "X"(The old model) or "O" (The slim model) buttons are used to place waypoints. The start button accesses the journal and "X" (Xbox 360) or "square" (PS3) enters the local map. While on PC, the "M" key pulls up the map, with "W", "S", "D", and "A", allowing the player to move around. The mouse-wheel zooms in and out of the map.
