Skjor is one of the highest-ranking members of the Circle in the Companions – possibly second only to Kodlak. Gruff and suspicious of newcomers, he is the one who keeps reminding you that you still have to prove yourself.
Background
Skjor learned to fight in the Great War against the Aldmeri Dominion and nearly died outside the Imperial City. Back in Skyrim he drifted around as a sword for hire until the Companions gave him a reason to fight again – honour, brothers and sisters, and, as he points out, the drinks.
In the questline
Skjor sends you and Farkas to Dustman’s Cairn for a fragment of Wuuthrad in “Proving Honor”. After you learn the Circle’s secret, he and Aela help you become a werewolf. He carries a Skyforge Steel Sword and wears Wolf Armor.
