Aela the Huntress is a Nord, one of the Circle of Companions and, as a result, a werewolf. In addition, she is a teacher of the "Shooting" skill, teaching up to the level of "Expert". Wears ancient Nordic armor, a steel dagger forged in the Skyforge, a hunting bow, and Aela's name shield. From communication with her, one gets the impression that she is a strong, strange and independent woman. All the women in her family had been Companions since the days of Hrotti the Blackblade. Sometimes he jokingly insults Farkas, considering him slow-witted, but he is not offended.

Appearance settings for the character Lydia Skyrim

Lydia is a character in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
Elements-icon Summary article: Huscarl.
Contents[expand]
Biography Edit
Lydia
Lydia may be one of the main character's first companions, and most likely, she will be his first housecarl.

Lydia is a Nord, lives in the city of Whiterun in the reception hall of Jarl Balgruuf the Elder or in the House of Warm Winds, if the main character has acquired it. Also, at the request, he can move to live in another house belonging to the player's character. She appears there after completing the "Dragon in the Sky" quest and Dovakin receiving the title of tan of Whiterun for killing the first dragon, Mirmulnir.

Combat and skills Edit
The characteristics of all Huscarls are the same.
See summary article for details.

Any of them is a classic "tank", focused on heavy armor and one-handed weapons with a shield. General features:

Will automatically equip armor with the highest defense value, regardless of enchantments.
Will automatically equip weapons with the highest damage. This means that housecarls should not be given two-handed weapons to keep until the protagonist's Blacksmithing skill is developed enough to upgrade any one-handed weapon. Otherwise, a housecarl equipped with a two-hander (including GregorHF) will drastically lose effectiveness in combat due to the lower level of the corresponding skill.
Do not use the bows given to them (with the exception of the flexible ancient Nordic bow), instead using the hunting bow they have by default and which is not visible in their inventory. In version 1.9 of the game, the following bows issued by the hero can be used instead of this hunting bow: Nordic hero bow, Forsworn bow, mage's scourge bow, flexible ancient Nordic bow, black Gauldur bow, flexible Falmer bow. See here for more details.
If a housecarl has more than one staff of destruction in storage, it will use them in combat, dual-wielding and ignoring any other weapon.
They don't own magic. They know how to heal wounds if they have a healing potion in their inventory.
They can independently pick up the staff of the killed enemy or any staff from the floor during the battle. For example, when fighting with Jurik Goldurson, they can take his staff from the table.

The head of the Dark Brotherhood in Skyrim (and at the time of the events of the game, 4E 201, in fact, the head of the entire organization, which lost all its shelters in Tamriel, with the exception of Skyrim). The first victim was her uncle, who molested her, and then, according to her, she just liked to kill. Carries the Blade of Woe. Does not honor the dogmas of the Brotherhood, does not respect the Mother of the Night. Married to the werewolf Arnbjorn.

If the protagonist decides to help Aventus Aretino and kill Grelod the Good on his order, then with this act he will intercept the contract from the Dark Brotherhood. He will not get away with it and during his sleep he will be kidnapped and wake up in an abandoned hut. The first person he sees will be Astrid, who will demand, as payment for intercepting a contract from the Brotherhood, to kill one of the three captives nearby - a Khajiit bandit, a quarrelsome woman and / or a cowardly mercenary. The choice will be allowed to be made by the main character, but regardless of the choice, Astrid will offer to make the relationship even warmer and join the Brotherhood.

The choice may fall on Astrid herself, but then the road to the assassins guild is ordered to the protagonist. Moreover, he will have to find the organization's hideout and kill all the assassins located there.

There's a lot more to Skyrim's character creator than meets the eye, so it's important to understand what character creation really is. It's easy to pick a character type in The Elder Scrolls Skyrim based on aesthetics alone - perhaps you think the reptilian Argonians are the most interesting, or perhaps a feline Khajiit piques your curiosity. However, there's more to it than that, so you need to know exactly what you're getting into when you create your first Skyrim character.

Understand hidden stats with each race

First of all, each race has its own unique range of characteristics. Wood elves start out with a natural affinity for ranged combat, so their base archery stat is higher than that of Nords. However, dark elves are more attuned to the art of destruction magic, so this is one of their stats that is inherently boosted.

It doesn't really matter in the long run, as you can always just level up something else - just because Destruction is initially up doesn't mean you have to refrain from using swords and shields. However, it does matter early on. If you received this initial promotion, you should try to use it. There's no point in avoiding Destruction from the start if you're a High Elf, as your pursuit of it will lead to a much easier task early in the game. Here is a complete list of starting buffs for each race in Skyrim:

  • argonian: +10 lock picking, +5 sneaking, light armor, pickpocket, restoration, rework
  • Breton: +10 Sorcery, +5 Speech, Alchemy, Illusion, Recovery, Alteration
  • Dark Elf: +10 Destruction, +5 Stealth, Alchemy, Light Armor, Illusion, Alteration
  • High Elf: +10 Illusion, +5 Destruction, Spell, Alteration, Restoration, Enchanting
  • imperial: +10 Recovery, +5 Enchanting, Heavy Armor, One-Handed, Block, Destruction
  • Khajiit: +10 theft, +5 lockpicking, archery, pickpocket, one-handed weapon, alchemy
  • nord:+10 Two-Handed, +5 Blacksmithing, Block, Light Armor, One-Handed, Speech
  • orc: +10 heavy armor, +5 blacksmithing, one-handed weapons, block, enchanting, two-handed weapons
  • red guard: +10 One-Handed, +5 Archery, Block, Blacksmithing, Destruction, Alteration
  • Forest Elf: +10 Archery, +5 Stealth, Alchemy, Lockpicking, Pickpocket, Light Armor

At the beginning of the game, you should choose the race and gender of your character, then decide on his / her appearance. The very process of character generation in Skyrim has become simpler in comparison with previous games in the series: there are no classes, birth signs too (you can choose the protection of one of them instead), attributes such as strength, dexterity, intelligence, etc. also abolished (only health, magic and stamina remained). In addition, there is also no opportunity to correct anything in your character upon completion of the training, whom you blind initially, you will play with that ...
