Enemies here

9 enemy types: 5 animals, 4 people. Each links to its strength, resistances and what it carries.

Lying only here

Items placed in the world here and nowhere else (some can also be bought, made or looted: their pages say).

From base GTS 118's own records: the winning copy of RiverwoodLocation (Dawnguard.esm). Level: the place's encounter zone, as the records set it. The game sets a place's level from yours, kept between its lowest and highest; GTS's Encounter Zones Unlocked keeps it following you rather than fixed at your first visit. People: where the game places them as a game starts; they walk about.
