there are soul trap spells you can purchase, cast the spell on an enemy and kill them while the spell is still active, but you need to have a soul gem in your inventory to hold the souls you capture. There are also soul trap staffs if you are too sucky to use the spells.

A soul trap is a spell or enchantment that you cast on creatures. When it dies with soul trap on it, it's soul goes into an empty soul gem in your inventory, which you can use to recharge magic weapons.

Buy the soul trap spell, equip it in either your main or off-hand and cast it like you would any other charged spell.

How do you trap a soul on The Elder Scrolls 4 Oblivion?

You must have two things in order to be able to trap a soul. 1 - Soul Trap spell. This could be the spell itself, or an enchanted item. The item could be one with Soul Trap as a castable power, or it could be a weapon that casts Soul Trap on whatever it hits. The target must then be killed before the spell wears off. 2 - An appropriate Soul Gem. Soul gems come in different qualities, some creatures have a 'larger' soul and require a higher quality gem, for example an Ogre requires a Greater Soul Stone, a Savage Ogre requires a Grand Soul Stone. The game defines the sentient, intelligent races as having a 'black' soul, while beasts, daedra, unintelligent races like goblins, as having a 'white' soul. Only Black Soul Gems (and Azura's Star) can contain the soul of a human, elf, orc, khajiit or argonian, also the sentient daedra, the Dremora, and the Shivering Isles NPC races Aureals and Mazken count too.
