This is a patch/add-on for JWL Scratch Is Back by UmbralJewels
The original mod is required for this to work.
-----------------------------------------------
What this does:
This mod tweaks JWL Scratch Is Back to make the Summon Scratch ability a ritual so you can always re-summon Scratch outside of combat. I also liked how in the original mod Fire, Necrotic, and Radiant forms got elemental damage on the bite attack so I added elemental damage to the other forms as follows. As of 2.0+, additionally adds new spells to some forms so each form gets at least 2 spells:
Earth
Fire
Frost
Air
Necrotic
Psychic
Arcane
Illithid
Umbral
Radiant
All existing bites have received new icons to match the new bites and all icons have been remastered.

My Other Mods:
- Valdacil's Spell Adjustments - Started out to align Vanilla and 5E Spells duration and concentration with Larian philosophy. Developed into various tweaks for improved gameplay and make some less used spells more interesting.
- Basic Actions Consolidated - Adds a hotbar icon to contain the Basic Actions to free up hotbar space
- Valdacil's Half-Illithid Effect Toggle - Toggle ability to hide visuals from a certain Act 3 event on a per character basis. Also has a configurable option.
- Spore Druid Extra Attack - Adds Extra Attack to Spore Druid since Spore is a martial focused subclass and Moon gets Extra Attack while wildshaped.
- Amulet of Rituals Additional Instruments - Adds missing instruments to the Amulet of Rituals mod
- JWL Scratch is Back Val Tweaks - Various tweaks to the excellent JWL Scratch is Back to give our Best Boy more balance across the various forms.
