📋 About This Mod

This mod adds 10 new entries to the awesome Dragonborn's Bestiary mod by JPSteel2. The creatures added to the bestiary are variants to existing creatures from the vanilla game, and are as follows:

  • []Flame Spider

    []Frost Spider

    []Shock Spider

    []Poison Spider

    []Oil Spider

    []Mind Control Spider

    Aside from killing them, the magical spiders can be added to the bestiary by pressing the activate key on a non-hostile individual. So make sure to say hi to your little spider buddy!

    This mod may be updated in the future if I happen to have missed a creature variant or two. And I'm open to any feedback if there's anything that can be improved!
