📋 About This Mod

Adds 13 more hand-drawn treasure maps with vanilla treasure chests (and some larger treasures) scattered around Skyrim. Uses the same game mechanic as the first ten treasure maps (read map, treasure spawns). Most are similar treasure chests to the vanilla game, though some are larger and in atypical locations or require a dig with a pickaxe, so be observant!

Lore-friendly, immersive treasure hunting! Treasures (even larger ones) are intended to maintain game balance and still be worthwhile.

If you need help finding the maps, there is a list of places to look behind the bar at the Sleeping Giant Inn, Riverwood. For those who are having too much trouble, or simply don't understand the purpose of this mod, here is a comprehensive list of the location of each map and treasure: http://legacy-of-the-dragonborn.wikia.com/wiki/Library_1st_Floor#New_Treasure_Hunt_Displays

Go explore Skyrim! The fun is in the hunt, the treasure is nothing.

Comment if you have issues so I can fix any bugs, thanks!
