I took an interest in the silver sword because it's obviously meant mainly for werewolves but also it says any undead including draugrs and vampires. So to give them credit for something they don't deserve is not good. If they're supposed to be mainly encountered by companions questline then lock them out period don't have them set up in places that you can find when you're not on the faction. It's bad developing. As I said if you're going to have them as a people you can encounter from the beginning of the game make them more indepth, instead of giving them a basic bandit actions make them a proper faction because to me that's exactly what they were supposed to be. But because of the whole 11.11.11 tagline alot of things got messed up due to being rushed. One of the many problems with skyrim sadly Honestly, it makes sence for them to attack on sight. They aren't a proper faction, because they have no backing. They do what they need to do to survive, thus they loot.
