📋 About This Mod
DESCRIPTION
This mod adds Cliff Racers to the southern parts of Solstheim. The models were created by Phitt ( http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/8579 for original Skyrim) and updated for SSE by me.
The Cliff Racers are passive critters just like hawks and can be shot down. A collectible food item (Cliffracer Tails) and a recipe for stew are included.
