Mod Overview
This mod is not to be used with the Anniversary Edition of Skyrim. In essence, this mod is an immersive mod and its goals are to extend the life of the game expanding upon the in-game themes. The original TPOSC mod addressed the many vacuous elements and themes within the game and this version continues this theme but has been re-sculpted to allow for compatibility with other mods across the spectrum of the modding community.
This version of The People Of Skyrim is an amalgamation of the original version, and all the newly added content.
As I started the development of this new version I dismantled and reduced many of the old TPOS settlements, redeploying them in some cases, or as in some others using those units across Skyrim with new material.
This has given the mod a wide range of diverse locations and environments. In other words, you have a great deal to explore & do.
I hope The People Of Skyrim will help rejuvenate your desire to explore & continue playing Skyrim. I have endeavoured to stay as lore-friendly as possible with TPOS refreshing the game across Skyrim and leaving the player not so sure of what is around the corner. At least for a while.
You will encounter new enemies at every level who will be more or less than you, this mod is non-linear in design. You will find new caves, dungeons, bandit camps, settlements, homes, backstories, generic NPCs, and others like followers, trainers, and so on, including new civil war content and more.
I have not touched any of the Skyrim defaults and all my units are new and independent vanilla enemies.
Many of the newly added enemies are triggered by the main Dragonborn Questline and the Dark Brotherhood Questline which activates wild and road-based enemies.
All the warring content is independent of the main warring drama of Skyrim and other aspects of this mod have been added to increase the immersive and collective story of Skyrim while minimizing conflicts with other mods I hope.
