📋 About This Mod

Dynamic Random Dragons has been made with the only purpose to put pressure when exploring Skyrim region. Combined with a dragon overhaul like Dragon War it can spice up your game quite a lot.

• Backported Extended ESL Support if not using Skyrim 1. 6. 1330+

• Randomized timing between each dragon world encounter

After completing Dragon Rising, dragons start to appear in the world — excluding lairs and mounds — after 7 in-game days. Each subsequent encounter can then take place in a variable span of 1 to 7 in-game days, which extends to 14 days if Alduin is killed. This behavior differs from vanilla, where dragons appear every 3 days.

• Compatible with anything that doesn't edit dragons world encounter quests

• Compatible with Timing is Everything as far as it's loaded before
