Enemy Scenarios In game there are new events that happen randomly on world time change.

Currently enemies don't drop loot. Loot can be added by other mods with Loot Manager. Enemies can indeed cast spells and early on it is better to avoid them.

War Scenario

Spawns random faction groups that start fighting. Only appears in open world. Picture

Ambush Scenario

Spawns random faction group. The only scenario that can happen in towns but only from 20:00 to 04:00. Picture

Wanderer Encounter Scenario

Spawns faction enemy. Picture

Enemy Factions

There are total of 4 factions that can spawn and fight. Troglodytes, Bandits, Ghosts and Skeletons. They can use skills.

Seasons

Additionally 3 seasons are added.

Winter

Adds winter to other regions.

Picture

Foggy spirits

Cloudy mist season that makes very hard to navigate and each hour changes the fog density.

Picture

Great war

Each hour there is a chance you will encounter additional war/ambush/wanderer scenario or nothing. Picture

Sideloader

I did add additional character AI classes. They work more as an example instead of actually using them in your mods.
