I did make a mod that does the first step of the Gweden change - i.e. you can complete the Sirens' Deception quest with Tsarrina alive and surrendered. It's not really complete as there is no sound to match the dialog, and there are no continuation quest hooks in it.

But I then got a bit carried away trying the other aspects of Oblivion mod-making and created a ridable bear to play with animations. Which became a polar bear, so I could do a texture change mod. Which then became the mount of an NPC with custom armor for the mesh aspect.

The inspiration came from an old (1980's!) ad for Peppermint Schnapps (Rumple Minze). Oblivion doesn't allow weapons or shields when mounted, but the rest was possible.

The bear-riding animation for walking pace looked bad, so I had her run always, which makes it a bit difficult to get a screenshot of her in motion.

I set her to patrol between Cloud Ruler Temple and Bruma's north gate. Before release I need to move her somewhere else in the mountains where she can't affect any quests, but where you can still find her.
