Unique Uniques, but for enemies

The idea for this mod is simple, but I think something that would be really wonderful to see.

 

Many of the "Unique" enemies and bosses in the game have little to no flavor. I don't mean the Karstaags or the Ebony Warriors of Skyrim, but the Gauldurson's and Red Eagles. There isn't a need for some amazing over the top lore-breaking change to many of the game's bosses, but something that gives life to a boss like The Caller, or the named Hagravens. As of now nothing separates Dascua, Petra, Melka, and Moira, inf act I figure nobody even knows what those are, because they're boring. They are simply normal hagravens with higher stats, nothing special at all.

 

Take the Gauldursons, and really all the named Draugr, what is special about them? What in the game makes you feel like these dead men are what remains of legendary nords? Nothing. They all look like the generic Draugr, they move the same, fight the same, sound the same, look the same, and most importantly feel the same. Though small armor differences can be found, they all wear the same helmet with the huge gazelle horns.

 

Take for example, most of the named bandits, what separates them from other bandits? Why is Kyr the leader of the bandits in Frostmere Crypt? Because he has friggin steel armor and a balding hairline? He looks like every other non-named bandit chief.

 

Named enemies and creatures should have more to them than simply having a name. Legendary nordic heroes shouldn't only be legendary in the books that nobody reads, powerful witches should feel powerful, not just have a higher destruction skill than your normal witch. This is a world we live in! There are plenty of mods that diversify the leveled lists of bandits and add new armors and weapons to Draugr, but there doesn't seem to be an overhaul for the named enemies, which is sad!

 

Something like this doesn't even need to be an overhaul for all named enemies, but rather perhaps a visual overload just for hagravens, or for the draugr, or for the bandits, or for the necromancers/mages. It could very well be done in chunks and I feel it would really blow up. This is just an idea, and I by no means feel entitled to other people making a mod for me, for free! But I think I and many people would be really grateful and pleased to see something like this. Thanks for all your hard work guys.
