LE Follower + mount at the same time - is it possible?

[herdustisverypretty]

I've been playing as a Khajiit character and I thought it might be interesting to have some sort of big cat mount (panthers, tigers, etc like from Prides of Skyrim), but I also kinda want to have one as a follower too. But I'd prefer to have them be the same creature, rather than having two separate ones - one for riding and one for following (with follower functions such as carrying stuff) so I can roleplay my character as having a bond with their loyal pet.

Is that even possible? Immersive Horses changes mounts a lot, and I was wondering if I could use it as a sort of template? Also if it is possible, how hard would it be to go about actually doing it?

Actually your mount will also fight for you, but i dont know about having follower dialogue like carry stuff since when you press e you will ride them not open a dialogue.

That's why I mentioned IH. It changes mounts so when you activate them (as if to ride them) it goes to a window that lets you select an option, such as ride, access inventory, etc. Though I'd prefer actual dialogue rather than an unimmersive window with options.

Dwemermechanicals does something similiar to this. Might be worth taking a peek at the way they set up the mechanicals.
