The lands of Morrowind are filled with rich and alien sights to see and places to visit, but for all that, the world is still, largely, static. NPCs and creatures react only to you, and to no one else, leaving you with only static and unchanging encounters.

But that's now a thing of the past with today's Mods of the Day, for today we're showcasing a pair of mods that make the world a little more reactive with Stay on the Roads - Wild Life Attacks NPCs by Syanide23 and Wildlife Attacks NPCs Too - (OpenMW) by Lelimule.

A pair of mods that impacts, not you, but the world of Morrowind itself - now creatures will attack NPCs, should they wander too close, and instead of a world that reacts only to you, now you'll stumble across battles already raging across the landscape, as NPCs have to deal with wandering alits, kagouti, nix-hounds and cliff racers.

While the OpenMW version only covers Morrowind's default wild life, the MWSE version expands creature reactions to all creatures - including Dwemer centurions, undead, daedra, and any and all creatures added by mods, allowing you to encounter NPCs battling all sorts of foes during your travels through Morrowind.

While this does mean some quest NPCs will naturally be imperiled, this is a simply lovely set of immersion mods that adds a little dynamic chaos to Morrowind, and I highly recommend giving them a try!
