  • Description
  • ***********************************
  • Sick of slaughtering the same few bandits and marauders for the millionth time? This mod replaces bandits, marauders and conjurers with NPCs based on the 21 standard classes, just like in Daggerfall. All NPCs carry loot and cast spells according their class skills and theme. For example, Assassins use poison and invisibility potions and Knights use Restoration spells. All classes also have a boss version. There are six variations for each class (three male, three female) and two variations for bosses, so there are 168 different NPCs in total.
  • There are three NPC types: warriors, thieves and mages which replace marauders, bandits and conjurers respectively.
