For each of my houses I have a very specific theme although for two of them I am not sure who I should have as stewards


Heljarchen hall: this is my mage "hideout" and as such I only really want there to be me, my housecarl and a steward, preferably a non-college mage.

Windstad manor: This is my showy warriors "Mead hall" type house (wish you could throw parties at your house ), more for show that for living in. I want a melee based tank (preferably two handed) but not stupid, And I dont want a companion as I feel the role would belittle them.



Any ideas guys?

For Heljarchen hall: Marcurio, Belrand (not exactly a mage, more like warrior-mage), Eola.

Windstad manor: not too many ideas for two-handed, maybe Erik the Slayer?

I use Illia for Heljarchen Hall. As usual, she loses the option to become a follower after the first time you dismiss her, but she retains the sreward commands and at least stays useful that way. Also, she's still a powerful mage which helps with defending the homestead.
