This mod adds a pet shellbug inside Fort Dawnguard that you can mine Shellbug Chitins off of(as well as some Gleamblossom that's normally only found in the Forgotten Vale area). This shellbug is far tougher than a regular shellbug so you can mine a lot of Chitins off of it without killing it, it's not invincible though so don't get too greedy!

The shellbug itself is located inside the fort, in the room housing the two Armored Huskies, right outside the entrance of Dead Drop Falls.

Conflicts: It shouldn't have any! But I would be careful with mods that drastically changes the interior of Fort Dawnguard, this mod doesn't delete any references or assets and takes up a very small space within a corner the cell.

As always, this mod has been cleaned in SSEEdit.

Future update: I'm probably going to add another Shellbug in Castle Volkihar for the players who sided with the vampires or just own a home mod there.

For lore reasons I would suggest holding off installing this mod until you completed the Dawnguard questline, or at least until after you've been to the Forgotten Vale but it could honestly be installed at any point of the game without any problems whatsoever.

Lore:

After the Dovahkiin's trek through the long lost Snow Elf valley of Forgotten Vale in their quest for Auriel's Bow, the leading members of Dawnguard lead an expedition into that valley in hopes of finding more forgotten weapons, artifacts, and rare alchemy ingredients to aide them in their fight against the vampires. Within that expedition, they found a species of glowing flowers possessing some paralysis affect, as well a peculiar, large bug that they have never seen before, the bug is peaceful, immobile, and possess no way of defending itself by way of mobility or attacks, but yet it was left completely alone by the other hostile creatures due to the tough chitin covering most of its body. Gunmar in particular took an interest in this creature, believing that its chitin could be studied & used to improve the armors of the Dawnguard Vampire Hunters, decides to bring a fresh hatchling of this creature back into the fort, and in there it grew to be the large shellbug it is today. It has since became a sort of mascot for the Dawnguard, some members have even taken to naming it "Dawnshell".
