Description

The strength of enemies in Skyrim varies significantly depending on their level.  For example, a Lvl 1 Orc Bandit has the same amount of health as a large mudcrab, truly a fearsome foe.  While a Lvl 25 Wood Elf has approximately 500 health.  I felt that early bandits were too weak, and also think that enemy strength varies too much between levels, so I made a couple of mods to fix bandit health, then much later I decided to make the mod again.

This mod is a simple character stat overhaul, it changes the health, magicka, and stamina values of characters that are one of the ten races of Tamriel. Thanks to the use of very simple scripts, Version 3 of the mod is now compatible with mods that edit race entries.

Summary
- The ten races of Tamriel have been assigned different Health / Magicka / Stamina values to make them feel different.  Races are now slightly stronger than the vanilla 100 / 100 / 100, and do not vary too wildly to avoid changing the feel of the early game.  Early level ups can easily compensate for weak stats.

- In the main module, changes only apply to the player. I recommend you also download the Bandits module to cover bandits.

- Some bandits have been given increased damage to make them more challenging. Nords have better Two Handed damage, Redguards have better One Handed damage, Orcs have better damage resistance when wearing Heavy Armor, and Wood Elves have better bow damage. These changes only apply to bandits, not the player.

- To compensate for tougher low level enemies, and to make enemy strength feel more consistent, higher level versions of enemies scale much less significantly in health, and instead get significantly increased damage.  This change makes one on one fights less tedious, and one against many fights way more dangerous.

How Strong are the Different Races?

F.A.Q.
1)  I have a question that isn't answered on the FAQ.
Answer:  Ask in the comments section.  I'm open to feedback, though I might not necessarily have time to make changes to the mod depending on my schedule.
