An addon that goes well with my Dragons Use Thu'um, Ancient Nord Heroes of Sovngarde alters Gormlaith Golden-Hilt, Hakon One-Eye and Felldir the Old so they use all their shouts in their arsenal against Alduin during the final Sovngarde Battle! This was a personal project, but now released as an addon to my Dragons Use Thu'um.
Not a requirement but I made this mod to go alongside Dragons Use Thu'um so I recommend you to use those two together!

Changelogs
Version 1.4
Polished the AI for Dragon Rend. Now the Heroes will use it to bring Alduin to ground a lot more effectively
Version 1.3
Polished the AI so the heroes will use Dragon Rend, Become Ethereal etc. more smartly
Version 1.2
Polished the AI of heroes and edited Hakon's voice actor inconsistency! He had 1 line from a different voice actor in Sovngarde saying "There he is!" I changed that to "You don't stand a chance!" Using the correct voice actor in Sovngarde!
Version 1.1
Fixed the shout sounds and edited AI a bit!
Version 1.0
First release yay! Tell me what you think!
Just like my Dragons Use Thu'um, Bethesda included 10 shout sounds for the 3 heroes but never properly implemented them. So I attempted to make the final Sovngarde Battle less dull by giving all three 8 fully voiced shouts! I highly recommend to use this along side my Dragons Use Thu'um as I made this mod to alongside with that one, since Dragons Use Thu'um gives a variety of fully voiced shouts to Dragons(including (Odahviing, Paarthurnax, Alduin). I edited the vanilla shout sounds to make them with Audacity and edited the AI of the Ancient Nord Heroes so they all use 8 of their shouts. I owe this to LeoneKingzz and EdmondNoir since those two helped me immensely with AI, magic effects and conditions. So go give them some love for their amazing efforts!
SHOWCASE VIDEO!
SHOUTS OF THE ANCIENT HEROES
Unrelenting Force (Fus Ro Dah): Similar to players Fus Ro Dah, Dragons will throw you and other NPCs backwards.
Fear Aura Dismay (Faas Ru Maar): The shout that will make NPCs will run away in fear. And stagger Alduin.
Disarm (Zun Hal Viik): The shout that disarms NPCS, technically useless against Alduin but still kinda coold for them to use.
Ice Form (Iiz Slen Nus): The shout will freeze anyone for 3 seconds.
Become Ethereal (Feim Zii Gron): The Ancient Heroes will become ethereal and be impervious to any damage for 10 seconds, or until they attack again.
Frost Breath (Yol Toor Shul): A frost wave shout that is similar to Dragonborn's Fire Breath.
Fire Breath (Fo Krah Diin): A flame wave shout that is similar to Dragonborn's Frost Breath.
Dragonrend (Joor Zah Frul): The most iconic shout of the Ancient Heroes, they will bring Alduin to sword's reach should you fail to do so!
Compatibility Notes This mod will conflict with any mod that alters Gormlaith, Hakon and Felldir. Sadly this includes both Visual Overhauls and stat and spell edits.
