Dawnguard Patrols (ESP-FE)

This mod adds Dawnguard patrols to various locations in Skyrim. Each patrol has a 40% chance of being ambushed by vampires at a specific location every night, between 21:00 and 05:00, but an ambush can happen at most once per night per location. During the daytime, vampires will disappear. These encounters take place on the road south of Fort Sungard, near Shriekwind Bastion, by the bridge close to Fort Snowhawk, near Forsaken Cave, close to Angarvunde, and east of Fort Greenwall (see the Map picture).

Vampires and Dawnguard patrols scale with the player from level 7 to 81. I created high-poly presets for every race and used them to design randomized patrol members. Their faces are standalone, but they will use your installed skin and body textures, so their appearance may vary from the screenshots. Some races have different combat styles—Wood Elves prefer crossbows, while High Elves and Dark Elves can use spells. Each patrol member also has a 33% chance to carry a torch and a 50% chance to wield a crossbow.

Patrol Routes:

Patrol 1: Broken Tower Redoubt → Karthwasten → Markarth Stables → Rorikstead

Patrol 2: Whiterun Stables → Riverwood → Falkreath

Patrol 3: Dawnstar → Dragon Bridge

Patrol 4: Winterhold → Whiterun Stables

Patrol 5: Ivarstead → Riften South Gate

Patrol 6: Road east of Fort Greenwall → Shor's Stone → Hollyfrost Farm

There are no requirements :)

This mod should be compatible with everything. It does not modify any level lists, cells, or base game assets. It simply adds actors, XMarkers, and Trigger Boxes to the world. The patrol members use a custom level list, ensuring that existing Dawnguard members remain untouched.
