Fortify <Attribute> M points for D seconds

Temporarily raises one of the target's Attributes by M points for D seconds. Derived attributes such as Fatigue, Health, Magicka, and Encumbrance will be recalculated if appropriate. After the spell expires, the Attribute will be restored to its former value.

Notes

• There is a somewhat irritating bug with this effect, that if you are under the effect of a Fortify Attribute, and are then hit with a Drain Attribute effect for the same Attribute, then when the Drain spell expires, the Attribute will NOT return to its former value, making the Drain spell behave more like a Damage Attribute. The only way to solve this is to remove whatever was causing the Fortify Attribute effect, and then cast a Restore Attribute effect. You may then put the Fortify Attribute effect back on to be returned to your former values.
• Another bug exists specifically with the Fortify Personality effect. Any person who sees you while under the influence of a Fortify Personality effect (even if you don't talk to them), regardless of how much they liked you before, will have their Disposition lowered by the amount of the effect (one Disposition point per two Personality points) after the spell expires. So even if somebody has 100 Disposition towards you, if you cast a 90pt Fortify Personality spell and they see you while the spell is active, then when the spell wears off their Disposition will be lowered to 55. Thus, you should only use such an effect with people you don't plan to talk to ever again (though this can be fixed through Speechcraft and/or Charm - In fact, it's probably easier to just use Charm in the first place).
• Another note of interest with this effect is that it can be added up to eight times in the same spell (because of the eight effect limit), regardless of whether or not the same attribute is selected, unlike other magic effects. Because of this, it is easy to make a spell that boosts any one of your attributes 800 points for one second. This trick is useful for Alchemy, if you boost your Intelligence and then immediately go into the inventory screen to make super potions.
• It is possible to make triple strength (and more) Fortify Attribute potions by using three or four ingredients with the same Fortify Attribute effect. However, some combinations may cause the game to crash.
