I thought of a monster that would have made Skyrim harder

    The monster is called a draugon (please note the u.)

    It is essentially an undead dragon.

    It looks like a half-living dragon, half-skeleton dragon.

    Its breath attacks cause things like disease and curses (what you are afflicted with depends on your level.)

    Any other ideas for monsters that could have appeared in Skyrim?

    There already is one skeletal dragon in winterhold academy questline.

    What about a roughly humanoid creature that can turn itself to smoke/mist form in order to negate all damage, and reverses itself to flesh form in order deal a powerful melee strike which ignores 50% armor with 10% chance to paralyse for 2 seconds? At the moment of changing to material shape the monster would get double vulnerability for damage for 1 second.

    Imagine fighting a group of those, that would be something. Also, find a nice name for it since i cannot come up with any.

    The skeletal dragon encountered during the College of Winterhold questline cannot use disease or curses as attacks, however.

    The diseades themselves will do nothing but force you to hunt down every mudrcab you see for cure diesease potion.

    You know what would make Skyrim harder? 

    Armored Giants.

    I like this idea. Would be cool if some Giants were a bit more "motivated" and factionized. Trying to take over territory. Armored and geared up Giants in packs would be terrifying.

    The idea of aggressive giants is terrifying. 

    I may be saying this just because I love minotaurs, but... minotaurs. Like, rare wilderness encounters similar to trolls, but armed with powerful weapons, perhaps armored. I dunno, just an idea.
