    This mod is just a fun, small creature mod to continue my creature series (Part 1 is DREUGHS OF SKYRIM)  

    Redcap the Riekling has commentary and interactions with Shellby the Shellbug via an optional patch on Redcap's mod page!!!
    If you are reporting an issue you believe to be a bug or asking a support question, please fill out a bug report with a detailed description of your issue, the version of the mod you have installed, whether you downloaded the mod as part of a mod list/mod pack/etc., and any potential patches or edits that are affecting the mod in your game.  Do not leave bug reports in the comments as they often require followup questions for troubleshooting, fill out an actual bug report in the appropriate tab if you are experiencing a potential issue and I will get back to you when I am able.  If you leave support questions in the comments, you will only get a reply referring you to this sticky, and you will need to fill out a proper bug report before any support is given.

    I was baffled when I met this creature, I thought they're stone but then they're just massive passive bug that yields shell for that cool looking armor
    Now I have no worries killing them just to get those armor

    This is a really cool idea, do you think you could add some kind of shedding feature? Like where once in a while Shellby will drop a piece of shellbug chitin, I feel like it could be a cool new way to obtain the shellbug helm without having to treat her mother like diamond ore in Minecraft.

      Update: added this in v1.2!  You can now harvest one piece of shellbug chitin from Shellby once per day, with no shellbugs harmed <3

    Hello! I love this your mod. Shellby is becoming more and more endearing as I play.
    If you don't mind, would you allow me to translate it into Japanese and upload it to Nexus?  Just like your other work, Redcap.

      No problem!  I will let you know that I'll probably be updating this mod soon with a minor addition to the dialogue (one dialogue topic with a response or two) in case you may want to wait to release the translation with that little update included

      Noted! I have finished translating the current version and now I am hoping to upload it for Japanese users, hehe. So I plan to do it today or tomorrow. Anyway, I'm always looking forward to your update and will also update my translation as soon as it's released. <3

    Hello! I absolutely love Redcap, easily one of my favorite Followers on Console, best buds with Xel & Inigo. Was curious if your planning on/would allow someone to port your creatures to Bethesda.Net, or at least just these adorable Shellbugs & the Redcap patch. We really have no mods for these underused creatures, which sucks cause I adore them.

    Thanks

       Okay, I found it. It's Viridian Knight Armor. How do I delete my post ?

    A patch for Mihail's shellbug mod maybe? So there can be more baby shellbugs with Mihail's shellbugs around the world.

      Probably not, as it would be the same amount of work for me to just expand my own mod to add shellbugs/baby shellbugs to new locations.  Also I add creatures by hand to locations I pick that align with my own personal interpretation of what is lore-friendly/the amount of them that I want to see in-game, so I'm not really interested in changing/patching my creature mods to follow someone else's personal interpretation.

    Tommy approves. I'd dare say Arthur approves. John certainly approves.

    Is there an Oldrim version of this mod, or would you be able to make one fairly easily?  No idea how different things are in the CK between the two versions.  If it's ever possible to get an Oldrim version I would love to have a Shelby follower!

      I have no plans to backport my mods to LE, sorry.
