About this mod

Ambient Animals Randomized Spawning adds extra encounters to the Ambient Animal lists so you wont see so many rabbits and foxes but will have other encounters also.

Permissions and credits
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Adds large amount of additional spawns to Ambient Creature Spawn List (rabbit, fox, snow fox) in the open world. This mod provides an opportunity to have
much more variety of encounters while still remaining immersive and you can loot their gear if you encounter them and is designed to work with my other two Random Spawn mods (see links at bottom of description). Be warned named non-essential NPCs may die if they encounter these spawns.

Spawns are completely random, they may team up if Faction aligned or attack one another. At early levels there are bosses and enemies that will be
more powerful than your character so learn to sneak, run or lure them into a strategic situation. The bosses and many of the spawns will level with your character, some won't and will be weaker than you as your level up. No NPCs are altered, all are untouched vanilla game NPCs. Bosses will have vanilla leveled boss gear. DLCs are required. Spawns will reset when regions resets. There are no named NPCs, all spawns are generic vanilla untouched game NPCs.

Bosses are: Vampire Boss, Draugr Boss, Bandit Boss, Forsworn Boss One Handed, Forsworn Boss Shaman, Thalmor Magic Boss, Werewolf Boss, Warlock Boss
Conjurer, Warlock Boss Fire, Warlock Boss Ice, Warlock Boss Necromancer and Warlock Boss Storm. Original creature spawns will still have chance to spawn with the newer additions.
