📋 About This Mod

The chiryu are a winged humanoid race descended of dragons. They are great warriors and masters of stealth despite their size. They are honorable, but tend to sit outside the affairs of the other races... Until now.

Their wings give them a limited form of flight. Their knowledge of their surroundings gives them a minor ability to sense danger thus helping them dodge blows more easily. They are masters of the long blade and adept at the mobile arts -- able to move quickly and leap high.

I've also added a new class called the Dragon Warrior which blends elements of the Warrior and Thief type classes.

The racecheck script allows NPC's to recognize your race and respond accordingly. There are a few references to Akavir, but to those who adhere strongly to lore I am not saying that the chiryu are from there, it's just natural for the citizens of Vvardenfell to assume that the chiryu are Akaviri.
