Being a sellsword

Post » Fri Apr 18, 2014 11:23 am

Whats up guys?

So, i just made a character like Bronn from GoT and i thought it would be cool if i could be somones follower instead of them being mine.

I dont know, just thought it would be a good topic.

As always,

Peace!

It would be difficult to pull off. Erandur is someone you can follow during his quest.

you could follow Talsgar around, or follow Plautis and Salonia..

i don't think either would be very entertaining though..

Could make for an interesting mod.

Imagine a game where you started off in Whiterun and an NPC (who was the Dovakhiin) hired you as a sell sword and attempted to do the main quest using navmeshing and AI systems while you tagged along.

If you're on PC, there are follower mods with quests/questlines.

In the Dawnguard questline, you're pretty much Serana's follower for quite a while.

Other than that, you have to RP quite heavily, I guess, ignore most follower dialogue and pretend that you're just scouting ahead, not the one who leads.

It'd be awesome. Sadly - and I know it's a cliche - Bethesda does seem to be trying to attract the 'we should become the emperor' crowd who think the answer to NPCs being rude to them is a hatchet to the face, so I doubt it'll happen.

Just remember to sell your sword, not loan it out to friends! :)

Their are some bounty hunter mods out there that help to RP a sellsword. Other than that you could also travel between holds doing work for the Jarls.
