Feather (Oblivion)

Feather is an Alteration spell effect that temporarily lowers the encumbrance of items carried. The magnitude is the extra units of weight the target can carry. 
This means that if a Feather effect of greater magnitude than the total weight of items already possessed is applied, the spillover magnitude is registered as a negative number. This can be observed by looking at the carrying capacity on the character menu, which will show for example, -5/100 if the target has a capacity of 100 and five more points of feather than they have weight in carried items.
==Mechanics==
Different Feather spells can be stacked if they are differently named and the same for Feather enchanted items. For example, casting Pack Mule and Beast of Burden together adds the benefits of both. Using all four spells subtracts 525 points of encumbrance from carried items. Creating spells of different names at an Altar of Spellmaking hypothetically allows infinite stacks of Feather, limited only by spell duration and overall Magicka pool. Similarly, limited only by soul gems and the number of slots to wear items, any combination of differently named Feather enchanted objects may be worn.
==Spell list==
The longest duration possible on custom Feather spells using the spellcrafting altar is 120 seconds. Even the humblest bought spell lasts twice that long. Furthermore, the higher two bought spells have a greater magnitude than the custom spell maximum: 100 pts.

==Enchantment==
Armor, clothing, rings, and various other worn objects can be imbued with the Feather effect at an Altar of Enchanting, such as the ones located at the Arcane University. As with other forms of enchantment, the magical energies of soul gems or sigil stones are required for the enchanted items creation. Sigil Stones containing this effect are leveled and can provide high Feather scores when enchanting.
When enchanting armor with Feather at an Altar of Enchanting, it's better to enchant the piece of armor with Fortify Attribute (Strength 10pts). The reason for this is the maximum constant Feather effect achieved at an altar is 50 points. That's the same carrying weight gained with +10 strength, which also increases fatigue and melee damage.
