📋 About This Mod

Rabbits of Skyrim:

Mod by: Grandbulwark

Assets by: KANRAx2

Now ported to SSE/SAE with superior implementation ensuring even distribution of ALL 27 variants!

Be sure to check out my new SSE Exclusive Release: Daedric Influence - Artifact Overhaul

SSE Release Notes:

I've been gone for a while now, and sadly a lot of my old passion projects have been somewhat neglected.  This mod is a prime example, due to the frankly sloppy implementation of the Skyrim LE version(my bad, I know) users were entirely unable to port this mod as it could not be opened with the creation kit.  This was essentially due to a needless hack on my part, namely directly replacing actor references with leveled actor counterparts.

This version is far superior to the old implementation.  Not only have I replaced all references to rabbits within the Skyrim leveled lists, I've also replaced every hand placed rabbit with leveled template actor rabbit.  This ensures that no matter where you see a rabbit, it will be one of the 27 shown here.  It won't just be the white rabbit either, there is a equal chance for all of them.  Further 2 of the 3 rabbit actors have been templated to mine, rather than Bethesda's rabbit.  While I couldn't apply said template to the third actor(EncHare - the main rabbit actor of the game), I did change him to the appearance of the default white rabbit from this mod.  Mind you, EncHare is no longer directly placed in the game.  I changed his appearance anyway in the event that your Bashed patch/merged patch inadvertently restores EncHare to the leveled lists.

LEGENDARY RABBIT HUNT:  There is a very small chance(something like 1 in 54 spawns) that you'll find the legendary rabbit.  The rabbit carries the legendary artifact "The Ring of Khajiiti".  You'll know the rabbit by the shroud of miasma around him(pics in images section), he's also very fast and much harder to kill than your average wabbit.  Don't worry about accidentally knocking him off a cliff, the ring is added to your inventory when you kill him.  He has a chance to appear anywhere that Rabbits spawn, that chance remains until the player kills him.  He is protected, and thus can only be killed by the player.

Ring of Khajiiti Effects: 10% movement speed bonus, or 30% while sneaking.  Invisibility while sneaking(you turn visible briefly when attacking) and muffle.

This feature is optional.  If you wish you opt out, you can either stay on the old version(functionally identical, just no legendary rabbit content), or simply enter the following console commands after installing the new version:

Set ROS_LegendaryRabbitGlobal to 100

Set ROS_StandardRabbitGlobal to 0

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install — it's a simple drag-and-drop

  • If you don't see bunnies, make sure the mod is activated and check that you're in a grassy area — they spawn in the wild
