[REQUEST] Cherry Blossom / Sakura Themed Magic

[Warhawk72482]

Hey all.

 

So, I'm working on a character for my Skyrim game that is a samurai/ronin with a cherry blossom motif.  I already have the kimono and samurai armor (both customized, zapped outfits) and a katana.  What I need are a few spells and effects for her and I was hoping someone more skilled at magic and magic effect creation could assist me.  I have a concept for the spells in mind just not the talent with creating them, specifically extra effects.

 

The first thing I would like some assistance with is a swirling effect that I can use a small texture file of a cherry blossom petal and add it to custom recolored spells.  For a healing spell, I'd have it swirl around the caster.  For a damaging spell like a recolored firebolt or fireball, the petals would swirl around the affected target as the "explosion" effect.

 

Lastly, I was hoping to have a really cool effect for when she gets a critical hit with the magic katana she will eventually have.  The concept of this is that when she scores a critical hit, the target is assaulted by a burst of cherry blossom petals that also hit surrounding targets.
