📋 About This Mod

-MTffr_NVOU

Requires Dawnguard and Dragonborn

Oh ye of little faith, ye can now summon the four horses of the apocalypse!

They have custom textures, custom visual aura effects and custom sounds.

They can be summoned anywhere (outside) with four separate spells and you can mount them as long as you want.

They are all invincible and each have a specific hostile ability when mounted:

War: Burns enemies close to you.

Famine: Sends locuts that slowly eats enemies.

Pestilence: Emits toxic clouds full of deadly diseases.

Death: Instantly kills targets that are under lvl 7.

Also, can you hear them? i swear i heard something...

These were mostly inspired by Red Dead Redemption Undead Nightmare's horses of the apocalypse.

You will see some similarities while some things are completely different.

Inside the Shrine of Mehrunes Dagon

(the quest for the razor will have to be completed in order to enter the shrine)

Inside there will be a small lockbox called "Strange Strongbox" and the four spelltomes will be inside.

I wanted to give a very big thanks to mitchalek who kindly gave me permission to borrow his flames from his mod Blaze Of Eventide so that the horse of war would be possible. Go check it out if you haven't yet.
