📋 About This Mod

Dynamic Animation Replacer
Animation Motion Revolution
Why add these animations?
Original riekling only has one regular attack animation. The missile riekling just stands still and repeats throwing in one single animation. So this mod adds new ways for them to attack. Sometimes these little creatures can use their swift movement to turn the tables.
Can apply to any creature in riekling skeleton, such as Mihail's fogling.
Updates: melee riekling are already faster than video now. Due to the arrow's speed, haven't changed missile riekling.
Lurker Animation
New Creature Animation - Giant
This mod adds new attack animations for rieklings and goblins in Skyrim, replacing the single vanilla attack animation with multiple new ones to make these creatures feel more cunning and agile. It's a simple animation overhaul for players who want more variety in creature combat.

⚠️ Cons
