6Pony Dragon Mod (The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim)
One of the most iconic moments ofThe Elder Scrolls V: Skyrimcomes when the soon-to-be Dragonborn is about to be executed and the game’s first dragon swoops down and brings total chaos. Now, imagine that dragon being brightly colored, having large adorable eyes and a mane, and instead of hearing a ferocious roar, the pony shouts, “Play!”
Modder zdzichorowerzysta brings that vision to life by puttingpony skins over Skyrim’s dragons. Having a giant Fluttershy smash her head into a tower and breathe fire is actually far more terrifying than it sounds. The mod was made for the initial game release, but it alsoworks on theAnniversary EditionofSkyrim.
