In skyrim, the intelligence of enemies has more work.

I don't actually think sea/air monsters would be that scary...they're born monsters, and it's what they're instincts tell them to do-attack you if you come too close. The fact that the Gatherers used to be humans is a lot more scary imo, since all their morals and consciences have been destroyed. If you can destroy a conscience P:
