Yeah that's what I was going for. The Idea of using and borrowing a lot of characteristics from dragons just scale them down. What I'm afraid of is it not being as simple as we suspect or hope for.

That's what I was afraid of. You're right, you'll need a custom skeleton and AI and everything. You can't just slap on the dragon's AI because it would need to be heavily tweaked and messed with. But that doesn't make it impossible just a highly ambitious project that only someone who really knew what they were doing could pull off. Not to mention the kind of conflicts something like this could create.

Right? A whole Falconry Component. Maybe you could get different types of birds and maybe even a small dragon. Jesus, this mod is making itself!

I use a lot of mods, but I know very little about actually making them. I'm surprised with Falcons and Eagles being already a thing in the game, that nobody thought or tried to make one a follower. I feel like by somehow combining a Dragon's AI with a nice HQ Falcon model, could make for a pretty bad ass follower. Maybe make it able to perch on your shoulder, or screech instead of roar. Sounds ambitious, but does it sound possible at all? Edit: Random Ideas I thought of: ~When running outside of combat the bird follows behind you like a normal follower. But, when you stop and he catches up, instead of flying in place mid air flapping its wings, it perches on your shoulder till you move again. ~A spell that commands the bird to fly around and circle you like a dragon until you call it back. ~It will automatically do this when you engage in combat, swooping down on an enemy to attack it. ~The ability to call it down can be useful if a dragon gets stuck in the air trying to fight it. ~An Eagle vision spell allowing you to see through your eagle's eyes to get a birds eye view of the area. I figure this can be done in a way where the camera follows the eagle as if you were riding it, until you deactivated the spell. ~Different types of birds, eagles, and falcons, that can be used. Possibly even a small dragon.
