About this mod

Owlbears are dangerous chimerical creatures that resemble a cross between a bear and an owl. Created by alchemists in ancient times, the species has established itself and reproduces on its own. Owlbears are exclusively carnivorous, and not afraid to take down prey even larger than themselves, or face groups of well-armed humans.

"Owlbears are dangerous chimerical creatures that resemble a cross between a bear and an owl. Created by alchemists in ancient times, the species has established itself and reproduces through eggs, and is particularly feared in High Rock, where it is considered as a more fearsome predator than even bears, due to the particular aspects that enhance the Owlbears ferocity and relentlessness, many of which they inherited from owls. In addition, Owlbears are exclusively carnivorous, and not afraid to take down prey even larger than themselves, or face groups of well-armed humans.

Owlbears are difficult to train, and are rarely seen being used as guardians or mounts, however, Breton Druids are known for collecting Owlbear eggs or hatchlings and training them from a young age. These Owlbears are covered in magical druidic runes that keep the beast under a constant tenuous spell that calms their usually uncontrollable temper, and makes them more easily tamable and usable for roles as mounts or guardians for druidic covenants."

(*Who is Beastmaster Mihail? He is my avatar/persona within the universe composed of all my mods. He is the ingame author who writes the texts that are usually presented as descriptions for my mods. A former monster hunter, now a dedicated scholar, he is planned to be released as an NPC in late 2022/early 2023, doing the same job in-game as my descriptions do on Nexus.)


Technical Information (SPOILER): Owlbears are only available as summonable creatures. The spelltomes to summon Brown and Black Owlbears can be looted from the corpses of two druids, one killed by wolves in Shadowgreen Cavern, and the other killed in a small camp outside Ancestor Glade, possibly attacked by factions that invaded the place.



- 1 new creature, in 2 variants: (black) Owlbear, (brown) Owlbear;

- 2 new spells: Summon Black Owlbear, Summon Brown Owlbear;






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.
