LE Mod Request: Immersive Hold-ups

[OpenWorldAddict]

This is the first of several mod requests to make traveling the roads alone in skyrim a very risky proposition.

 

What I am askng for is simple. The thieves that stop you on the roads to steal all your valuables is so unrealistic, and because of that they are rarely a big threat, especially at higher levels. A thief will stand there once he spawns in until they sees you, then they will run right at you getting in your face and demanding your valuables. If you give in, they just turn and walk away. So I am asking for a mod to fix this and making these highway robberies more realistic and more of a serious threat no matter what your level is.

 

When the thief spawns in, they still stay in place, but in a more stealthy position as not to get noticed, maybe even behind a tree, shrubbery, or tall grass. When they notice you they remain hidden and out of your line of sight until you have passed them. Once you pass them, they start making their way towards you stealthily, until they come up right behind you with their dagger out and then they demand your valuables. First you are in a vulnerable position because you guard is let down and you can't see them, and second they should be in position that they can get strike with the first hit if you refuse or try to move away or turn around.

 

Combine that with some combat mods that makes taking damage from any weapon very deadly and suddenly you have a true highway robbery where the robber is a grave threat to the traveler. If the traveler doesn't give in the thief's demands, they could find themselves instantly dead, unless they have companions that could save him or stop the robbery in the first place.
