How to find a missing follower?

Post » Thu Apr 10, 2014 1:02 am

My character had been travelling with Erik the Slayer for some time. He dismissed Erik in Whiterun Hold, before travelling to Riften for his wedding. Erik was present at the wedding, and last I saw him, he was departing Riften - I took a carriage to Falkreath as the wedding guests exited the city.

It's been quite a while since these events - about 10 hours - and Erik is missing. I assumed he was dead, however I can't find his grave in Rorikstead (I'm using the mod which adds graves for every NPC), while the two other deceased citizens of Rorikstead are buried behind the Frostfruit Inn.

Is there a way to track down Erik? A console command or something? I assume he's stuck somewhere, since he isn't buried in Rorikstead.

I would just wait a few days. Sometimes they take quite some to get to their home location. The AI might have picked the scenic route back to home.

It's been quite a while already - certainly more than a few days. EIther Erik is dead, or stuck.

Most likely stuck, but you never know.

Try this in the console:

player.moveto 000656E2

Thanks, I'll try this when I'm at my PC in a couple of hours.

Success! Erik was stuck just outside Helgen. Thanks for your help :)
