On the way up to High Hrothgar, you will find yourself in a challenging battle against the giant, red-backed bear Akakabuto. You will help sereval stray dogs (including Gin and Riki) to defeat the monsterous bear. This is not a quest.

Akakabuto, like an usual cave bear, will drop claws and a bear pelt. But he will also drop a leveled amount of gold, from 100 gold (lvl 1) to 2000 gold (lvl 70). Akakabuto, Gin and Riki levels with the player.

Requirements:
Dawnguard

Known issues:
-I intended to make Gin and Riki followers but I can't seem to get the dialogue to work. Anyone is free to fix that then send the modified .esp to me. I would give credit of course.
-The dogs will probably have killed or injured Akakabuto so much that he's too easy to fight when you reach the area at lower levels.
-I cannot make Aka one-eyed because of limitations with the UV-map sharing the same half.

Future plans:
-To make Akakabuto a separate race and make that race's damage more deadly, perhaps like Fallout's Deathclaws.
-Adding more named dogs from the Silver Fang anime. I would be glad if some decent modeler would provide me with custom dog meshes, I don't know if there is a mesh resembling a Great Dane though.
-Will make Gin and Riki's textures somewhat darker as they look too bright in sunlight.
-To make Aka drop a leveled amount of bolts (as if there has been many hunters who tried to shoot him with a crossbow but failed to kill him)
