Organizing souls

But IIRC the mage took some special measures to be able to trap himself inside like that... fully aware. I don't think it works the same for common soul trap spell.
Exactly, that'd be contradictory to lore so I don't think Bethesda would do that. Even though they have made a few retcons over the years.


I think this is a great idea!

Then we could arrange for an arena where you could empty the soul gems to have the spectral forms of the creature you caught battle other creatures!
They could level up as well, and learn better abilities as they win fights.

Oh, and there could be extra hard-to-find enemies that are sparkling (like the Nirnroot effect) and that could have a different color scheme and perhaps a special move!

This will be awesome!


"Skeever, I choose you!"
Maybe that's taking it a bit too far :P But sure, a nice effect would be a projected image of the one you captured when activating a soul gem placed in one of these racks. Though I'm not sure that'd be very correct lore-wise, since it's a creature's soul energy that's being trapped, not really the entire creature.

One time I felt really bad
Spoiler

After finishing The Black Star, Azura's quest I sat behind with the Black Star. I was a Necromancer, so I needed a Black Soul gem.
Afterwards, the Dunmer at Azura's Shrine says that I betrayed Azura and that she should kill me for what I did. So, I equipped my Dual Fireball and blew her to pieces. Throwing a Soul Trap spell first, I trapped her soul inside the Black Star, and ran about laughing maniacly.
Later I used her soul to enchant a Fortify Magicka Amulet :P I still use it.
You killed Aranea Ienith?

How dare you!
