Region Skyrim

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

Dawnstar

Dawnstar is the cold northern port of the Pale – a mining town plagued by nightmares, home of Jarl Skald the Elder, the Windpeak Inn and a Mythic Dawn museum.

Morthal

Morthal is the misty swamp town of Hjaalmarch – ruled by the seer Jarl Idgrod Ravencrone, home of the wizard Falion and a dark mystery about a burned house.

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.
