Welcome!

Friends in Skyrim is a mod that adds NPC followers, spouses, trainers, and merchants around Skyrim. It is meant to be helpful for new players or when starting a new character. There are new books and spells, too, you just need to look!

What's new, what's changed?

Friends in Skyrim makes changes to the area across the bridge in Riverwood, by adding a Shack. A couple NPCs live there. Whiterun is the most populated at the moment with 5 NPCs that hang around the Plains District and the Drunken Huntsman. The Drunken Huntsman has also been modified to add an Alchemy Lab and Arcane Enchanter to the back room. The old pantry area is now is small sleeping area, if the Dragonborn ever gets sleepy and needs to rest for a while. Look around the area for some books that let you get to know more about the NPCs. There is a new storage area just behind Warmadien's, a convenient spot for storing supplies.

Followers, spouses, trainers, merchants, oh my!

While there are currently only 12 "Friends in Skyrim", I have done my best to make marriageable and follower NPCs who were not able to be married or become followers in vanilla Skyrim. I have added two marriageable and follower capable Bosmer, a male and female, and two marriageable and three follower capable Altmer, two males and one female, as well. Other races that are also among the marriageable, follower, trainer, and merchants, are two Dunmer and two Redguards.
