I'm new to The Elder Scrolls series. I just purchased Oblivion yesterday after having my mind blown by Skyrim at E3.

My question is, what is with the Fighters Guild Porters? Do they have to follow me around from room to room all the time? Every time they follow me I just want to draw my sword and cut them down. Do they think I am going to steal something?

There simply there to prevent thieves from stealing easily they can also repair gear but besides that they have no purpose

I knew the porters could repair gear, I just couldn't figure out why they insist on following me all the time inside the guild halls.

Isn't it obvious... he's stalking you! Even if your the guildmaster of the Fighter's guild he still follows you!

They have the same script as store owners. They are incredibly annoying. What's more, they still follow you around with 150% chameleon, an active invisibility spell, and sneaking.

They aren't supposed to behave like that, either, but they do, and it's very creepy.

Once or twice I contemplated murder just to stop those fools from following me around all over the damn place.

That is the reason I very quickly get my business done in the FG buildings. Those guys are creepy......
