Description
------------
Creatures and Critters is a mod crafted to harmonize diverse creature additions from great classics seamlessly.
Designed to ensure compatibility and preserve the game's balance while adding new enemies for higher level players.
Each region has new spawns to make them more unique.
With homogeneous loot systems for consistency, and a plethora of new items from Tamriel Data, OAAB, and other installed mods.

MAIN GOALS
- have creatures added by various mod work well together
- minimise footprint for maximum compatibility
- create a framework to easily add creatures without breaking balance
- give regions more personality with unique variants (e.g white rabbits in Solstheim, tan rabbits in Grazelands, grey rabbits in Ascadian Isles, etc)
- add diseased, blighted variants when relevant
- homogeneous loot (e.g all guars now have guar meat form Tamriel Data, etc)
- new and varied loot from TD, OAAB but also any and all Wares mods installed
- Undead Arise variants added based on Archimeastro Antares's scripts
- some passive wildlife but also high level creatures (level25+)


**CREATURE SPAWNS**

NOTE:
- many creatures such as wolves, rat, golems, rabbits, ents, etc look different from one region to another.
- I have not added creature variants to regions they didnt already exist in.
- diseased and blighted variants have been added if the region already had diseased/blighted creatures
- lists below show new creatures only
