So, I'm playing the Witcher 2 and I found something totally awesome. The Witcher Geralt uses his magic to take out torches. That kind of would be awesome in Skyrim.

And it doesn't even have to be magic to control torches. But think about it, in sneak mode instead of sitting there stealing sixteen or so torches so enemies cannot see you. You just take the torches out and blow them out.

That would be kind of wicked, imo.

im not complitly sure but i can say that sneak its a bit disturbing on this game...i dont know whats ur lvl on sneak, but i can walk past some guards in the day and they dont notice me...i have sneak on 72 aprox. and i dont need to take any torch....this means 2 things.

First, i dont know if the torches make a diference, but i dont need to take them away, it makes no diference for me, i can sneak without problem.
so if u want a skill to take torches from the distance, then u need the torches to MAKE A REAL diference.

in Second, they might change a bit the sneak ability coz its what i said, when im on sneak i can stand in some place, and a guard or someone walk right past me, like 1 foot away, and they dont see me, unless u make something to call his atention. i think this is something to look for a few modifications.

Be aware that won't work in dungeons that have Falmer in them.

They're blind and rely on their other senses to find/kill you.

Also, some of the torches in the game you can take already - so they go out, some you can't.
