Region Skyrim

The northernmost province of Tamriel, homeland of the Nords, divided into nine holds.

Falkreath

Falkreath is the quiet forest town of southern Skyrim with a famously large graveyard – home of Jarl Siddgeir, the Dead Man's Drink and a talking dog called Barbas.

Windhelm

Windhelm is the ancient, snow-covered capital of Eastmarch and the Stormcloak stronghold – home of Ulfric Stormcloak's Palace of the Kings and the Gray Quarter.

Markarth

Markarth is the stone city of the Reach, carved into the cliffs by the Dwemer – home of the Silver-Blood family, Cidhna Mine and the Forsworn conspiracy.

Benor

Benor is Morthal's self-proclaimed best brawler – beat him in a fistfight and he becomes a free follower and marriage candidate.

Erandur

Erandur is the Dunmer priest of Mara in Dawnstar – a former Vaermina cultist who becomes a healer follower if you spare him in "Waking Nightmare".

Derkeethus

Derkeethus is the Argonian miner held captive by the Falmer in Darkwater Pass – rescue him and he becomes a follower and marriage candidate.

Ghorbash the Iron Hand

Ghorbash the Iron Hand is the Orc of Dushnikh Yal who misses adventuring – talk, pay or brawl him into joining you as follower, spouse or steward.

Borgakh the Steel Heart

Borgakh the Steel Heart is the Orc chief's daughter in Mor Khazgur who longs for freedom – a heavy-armored follower and marriage candidate.

Annekke Crag-Jumper

Annekke Crag-Jumper is the adventurous archer of Darkwater Crossing in Eastmarch – kill a bandit leader for her and she joins you.

Sven

Sven is Riverwood's bard and Faendal's rival for Camilla's heart – side with him in "A Lovely Letter" and he becomes an early follower.
