Uthgerd the Unbroken

Works for sure, I have her as my Stewart in Falkreath.

Benor will not become a steward.

Janessa will not become one either (In my game, at least) =(

Edit: nor Kharjo

lol i hope someone is writing ALL of this stuff down because various websites haven't update the current info on Hearthfire lol

Would like to know if Illia from Darklight tower can be a Steward =)???

Eola from Markarth 'Taste of Death' quest can be a Steward to though!

Erandur would not work either, had had him walking around the prospective new home for ages and no dialogue came up, I left him in the basemant to keep an eye on things anyway. Sick of the skeever infestation.

Very disappointing to hear this, he is one of the best level 50 followers.

Will he stay in the basemant =)? Would be quite nice to have preist of Mara guarding the Mara shrine

Illia will become a steward

Well I will try and keep him there, just return every so often move him a bit then ask him to wait again. Determined I am to have as many guarding that house as possible before adopting anyone. Unfortunately I will have to dismiss him to get the stewards for the houses, but I will put him back in the basemant afterwards.

I've heard that Ingjard from Fort Dawnguard (and possibly the rest of the followers there) can become a steward. Can anybody who has completed Dawnguard and/or made enough progress to get her and the rest of them as a follower confirm or deny?

you can add ahtar,farkas,and stenvar to the won't list

someone test derkeethus please
longshot, but who knows

i was going to today but ran out of time,if no one tryz b4 tomorrow,i will and post it

Really? I keep having problems with him. The steward offering comes up in the dialogue but still only acts like a hireling even after the fact.

I believe if they are in follow mode, they can't do steward duties. You must tell them to leave, and then you can tell them to do steward stuff.


You can always tell them to follow you again.

Aranea (the priestess of Azura) also can't become a steward (I tried).

Argis the Bulwark also will not become a steward.

Can be made stewards:

Durak (from Dawnguard)
Annekke Crag Jumper (Marry Sylgja and your mother-in-law can live with you )

Can't be made stewards:

Mjoll the Lioness
Borgakh the Steel Heart

can we fire a stewart, other than killing them?
