Creature Attributes Overhaul.

[Alithinos]

I get a feeling that some of Skyrim's creatures need to be tweaked to make gameplay more interesting and some times more believeable.

So I have started writing notes about changes I'd like to do in each creature's attributes once the Creation Kit is out,and it turns out that there are more changes than for just one or two creatures..

Thus I decided to make a bigger mod that would generally change the way the player interacts with the various creatures.

I will write in this thread some of the changes I'm planning to do,and please feel free to offer me suggestions and feedback for this project.

:)

 

Shadow Figure

*More chances to leave ectoplasm behind.

*Killable only with silver weapons,or enchanted ones,or magic.

 

Saber Cat

*Faster Movement Speed.

 

Horse

*Slighty faster movement when mounted on it.

 

Bear

* Slower movement speed.

 

Skeever

*Chance to contract a disease to the player's character.

 

Frost Atronach

*More weakness to fire.

 

Vampires

*Now take sun damage under the sun.

*Magicka and Stamina is slowly dropped when near garlic.

 

 

 

There are more creatures I'd like to edit,and perhaps more things to be edited for each creature.It just looked weird to me that a major predator like the Saber Cat is slower than most animals in the game that could be concieved as its prey,while at the same time Bears are so fast you barely can escape while on a horse if a bear chases you.My mindset is to alter the animals that also exist or existed in real life so they feel more realistic.For non-real creatures the changes will be made either according to attributes they had from previous Elder Scrolls games (e.g. Shadow Figures are basically replacing Oblivion's ghosts,so I thought of bringing ghost attributes from Oblivion to them) or according to folklore legends where applicable (you see that in my prefered changes for vampires which are weakness to sun and garlic).As I wrote before,any suggestions and feedback are welcome!Work will start as soon as the Creation Kit is out.
