📋 About This Mod
On 6/10/2018 Pharros changed the permissions of all of his mods to "You may do what you wish with the file as long as you credit me and don't distribute it on a separate mod hosting platform." That is why a SE version of NARC exists.
Find the original LE version here.
Description:
Bethesda for some reason never flagged animals and such to ignore crimes. Welp, now they will. No longer will a wild goat tell the guards what you've done. No longer will horses snitch. No longer will dragons report to the guards because you murdered someone/something they were planning to murder. :D

If you are the creator or maintainer of one of the mods I have patched, feel free to implement my changes.
Please tell me if you do, there is no point in me keeping a redundant patch.
