RP question about followers

Post » Wed Jun 13, 2012 7:31 pm

Hello! :smile:

I need help from a role playing point of view. :smile:

I have a hunter, lvl 13. He is a nord and prefers to live in the wilderness, visiting towns only to craft and sell what he got from hunting.

He doesn't want to own a house or join any faction, he doesn't want to be a significant person but a simple folk, who earns his meal from hunting and living of the land.

It has been some time since he is wandering alone the lands around Whiterun and he is getting lonely. He wants to find a female companion and marry her.

So I am wondering what follower to choose for him. :smile:
I want her to be good looking, race doesn't matter. Another thing is I want her to be a follower, to be able to join him on his hunting trips. I got my eyes on Ysolda, she is so cute, but she wont leave Whiterun and since he doesn't use fast travel option, they wont meet very often, especially when he goes to other hunting grounds, closer to other towns.
Since he don't want to join factions Aela the huntress is not an option either. I am wondering about Mjoll the Lioness and Lydia. Uthgerd the Unbroken is another tough girl, but another character of mine is married to her, so I want something new.

The only problem I have with Lydia is, that the dragons will start to spawn. I am afraid that they will ruin my "simple hunter" experience with them flying all around, attacking.

So if any of you could suggest a good companion wife, I would be happy :smile:

I like http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Borgakh_the_Steel_Heart. She is sixy, fights well and is also someone who is seeking adventure - but not necessarily the big city type.

There is a woman in Shor Stone who seems like it is a good fit, you can live in her home in the small town, not sure if she will follow u though.

http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Sylgja is her name.

my female orc married her last night. She's my new fav npc wife. However she won't follow you and won't sell/buy from you until you move her from her home to one of yours.

HAHA nice.

but I agree with the http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Borghak_the_Steel_Heart as a choice. She was going to be my orc's special other but then I came across Sylgia and I caved to that brown eyed beauty.

Mjoll the Lioness would be your best bet, you don't have to join any faction.

But then you have to put up with that follower of hers... unless you kill him.

When Mjoll's following you in the wilds, Aerin isn't there as well, is he?

No... He only pops up when she's not 'following.'

fail!

She is the most awesome follower. Opens a store for me, can beat the piss out of anything we run into..

I outfitted here with full ebony gear but an enchanted circlet instead of a helm so I can periodically gaze into her beautiful eyes ;)

Thank you all for your suggestions. :)

Orc woman is great, I used her as a follower on my main char for some time, but I don't find her attractive enough to marry her.
Shor's Stone girl is very good looking, but she wont follow. She stays at her home it seems.

I think he will go with Mjoll or may be Lydia... Grrr I so want Lydia, but those damned dragons are coming with her.
