About this mod

Gorons are guardians of nature, mountain spirits that take the form of bulky yellow humanoids made of rock. This large mountain-dwelling race, slightly larger than a normal man but much stronger, is often found guarding secluded caves and mountains across Tamriel, often blending in with the rocks and catching invaders off guard.

"Gorons are guardians of nature, mountain Fae that take the form of bulky yellow humanoids made of rock. This large mountain-dwelling race, slightly larger than a normal man but much stronger, is often found guarding secluded caves and mountains across Tamriel, often blending in with the rocks and catching invaders off guard. They possess moderate intelligence, but despite being revered by some groups, Gorons are usually hostile towards people.  A Goron's legs are short, especially compared to its much longer arms, the head is small and broad, and the body is rounded in appearance. The yellowish rocks that form their bodies are covered with luminous markings of unknown symbology.

They typically live in or under mountain ranges of several provinces, specially the warm lands of Hammerfell and Elsweyr. In Skyrim they seem to occur mainly on the mountains of the Reach, close to the Craglorn's frontier. 
In this region, these nature spirits are known for their sporadic outbursts of rage against miners, then opening passages that connect their remote caves to the mine corridors and attacking the workers fiercely. Gorons attack with their long, strong arms made of pure rock and can easily cause small earthquakes."

So far no incompatibilities have been found between this mod and other mods.
(OBS- If by chance when installing several of Mihail's mods at the same time you are asked about files overwriting those of other Mihail mods or other authors mods, don't worry because they are just the same files shared between mods. I recommend that on these occasions always give preference to the files contained in my mods, and among mine always give preference to the mod you are installing last.)



The Mihail Monsters and Animals series aims to create and make available to the community the most complete set of creatures for TES 5: Skyrim, implemented in an immersive and unique way, with respect to the pillars of lore. Instead of pathetically just throwing models and textures in the game reusing 100% vanilla mechanics, the creatures made by Mihail have uniqueness and extreme zeal in their idealization and implementation, which will provide you with an experience that you have never had before in this area.
