Where is YOUR Lydia?

Post » Fri Dec 09, 2011 10:41 pm

So all of us have had Lydia as our loyal companion, and my question to you is what happened/where is your lydia?

Mine is laying in some dungeon I went into right after I got her =(

Breezehome. That poor woman is so bruised over all the traps she walked on, she kinda deserves a rest for the next few months...

I don't know how so many people "lose" Lydia. Mine's gotten killed a few times, but she was always loaded with stuff I wanted, so I just reloaded the last save. Bingo. She's back. Right now, every time I enter Breezehome, she's sitting there waiting on me. Or ......on someone. ?

I hate companions in TES games. I left her in the home.

I also have a guy at my house in Markarth, but he sits in my home eating my food all day.

I lost mine because I never noticed she was gone, so I finished the dungeon and only after leaving it I noticed she died...And I didn't feel like doing it over again just to save her.

She died valiantly fighting a bandit lord by my side, I didn't bother reloading because I'm sure there are going to be plenty of others to join me on my quest to purge Skyrim of the Imperials.

Only the player can finish her forever. Mobs, traps, and anything besides the player just brings her to her knees. But the player can easily one-shot her when she's like that, killing her. Even with Unrelenting Force, I think.

So, lots of people kill her inadvertently.

Dead in a ditch. At the beginning of the game, going to Kynesgrove I think, there was always a dragon standing in my way. I was a noob mage, so it kept owning me even on novice difficulty. I finally took Lydia with me, who served as my distraction. I ended up finally killing the dragon after 4 attempts, but she died. What's worse is I could not find her body.

I put some food on her and she never dies, only time she dies is if she is down on one knee by the enemy and I hit her by mistake. I don't know how you can lose her, if I can't see her, then normally she just appears behind me some how, even if I'm on a horse and leave her far behind, somehow when I stop the horse she comes runnin up.

I hate that line she says, I'm sworn to carry your burdons. I just wanna slap her and say, look b****, do you want this ebony armor I'm bout to let u have or not? Why won't she use the ebony bow I give her, she uses the hunting bow, and its not in her inventory so I can take it out?

It seems that most adversaries just ignore her when she's in her incapacitated position, but she can still be killed, and not just by the player. I've set her essential to stop any inconvenient killage occurring.

Talking of console commands, they're the only reason I know where she is half the time: compared to, say, Veronica (who seems very much her alter ego) in New Vegas, Lydia isn't terribly good at keeping up; either that or has a liking for wandering off randomly.

She was violently torn apart by falmer while we were in Alftand, trying to get

an elder scroll


It was my first time taking her out with me, and she died pretty early in the ruins. It was pretty sad. Mostly because I had to leave behind 6 dragon bones she was carrying for me.

On my first character she is chilling in Breezehome. The only time she left was to pack mule stuff to a different house for me. The only action she saw was beating a guard to death who chased me into my house, which actually kind of surprised me because I figured she was going to be like "Stop Criminal Scum!" and help him beat me bloody. She didn't though, and as such I never let her die because she saved my life once.

Edit: Forgot, on my new character she's currently "following" me, if by following she means getting lost and never helping me fight anything. She just shows up right as the battle is ending with this look like "Oh you killed some stuff, good show. Got any new stuff for me?"
