He mainly attacks with magic(using primarily shock spells) but he may also opt to use his bow and arrows to deal extra damage to your opponents. He’s an important character and a marriage candidate which you can opt to marry if sparks fly. Onmund is a mage and an archer that roams around the halls of the College of Winterhold. Oddly enough, even though she belongs to the Imperial Army, she’s one of the weakest followers that you can get – which makes her a far better steward!Īdelaisa is proficient at alchemy, enchanting, and smithing, so she’s one of the best stewards if that kinda stuff is more what you’re looking for. You can find her with her Company near the outskirts of Windhelm. Adelaisa VindicciĪs you might guess considering her name, Adelaisa Vindicci is an imperial and a female follower that may be assigned as a steward once you get far enough to meet her. Some points about Njada: she isn’t too good at combat, but she does offer good skills with defending and lockpicking. She can also become your wife if you wish, so there’s a lotta options here. So it’s worth noting that getting her by your side isn’t as easy as other followers. Njada Stonearm may only be recruited to be a follower or steward after completing the entire questline of the Companions. In any case, you can recruit Durak and take advantage of his skills as an archer whenever you wish. So if you wish a lore-friendly playthrough you might not want to recruit Durak if your character is going to follow the steps of the night and become a vampire. He has an inherent hate for vampires(as you can imagine). He joined the Dawnguard(where you will need to go if you want to recruit him) to avenge the deaths of his last two wives, who were apparently slain by vampires. He can become a steward if you wish, and he also has one of the coolest backstories of any NPC follower in the game. Durakĭurak is a mighty warrior and one of the best followers in the game. Choose whichever one of these lovely characters best fits with your character’s story. Some of them are mighty warriors, while others are weaker but loyal servants. I’ve made this list comprising all the best stewards for you to select from, each with different benefits and drawbacks. You want to make sure you pick the right steward for your home, as they’ll serve as its main caretaker for as long as they live. Once a steward is assigned to a homestead, though, the only thing you can do to get them out is either reassign them to another one or have them die. Most stewards can also serve as regular in-game companions, so you can also make them accompany you into battle too. Stewards are companions that you can assign to protect your homestead if you have the Hearthfire DLC for Skyrim.
