Skyrim How Often Can U Feed on Same Npc

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Wiki Guide

Followers

A Skyrim Follower is best described as humanoid or animal NPC (non-player character) who will follow you and obey specific primitive commands.  For example, you can tell a follower to follow you, wait, go to a certain point, trade items with you, pick up items, open doors, attack enemy combatants and part ways with you. Your follower can help shoulder some of the burden of carrying heavy loot and other items, but he or she also has a carry limit. Followers can be found in specific locations, specialize in specific skills, and require you to do specific things before they will follow you (see the list that follows).

Note about leveling up: In the current version of Skyrim, NPC followers do not level with the player.  Followers' level and skills are determined by the player's level at the time of their first encounter.  It is unclear whether this is a bug or intended.  On the PC, a follower can be 'updated' to the player's current level by dismissing them, opening the console, clicking on the follower and using the 'disable' and 'enable' commands (no quotes, hit Enter after each).

Additional Information About Skyrim Followers

• You must meet certain conditions before a NPC will become your follower (see the list that follows).
• You can have humanoid followers as well as animal followers.
• Generally, you can have only one humanoid follower and one animal follower at any given time, but there are exceptions to this (see Getting a Party of Five or More, below).
• If you want to replace someone, you would have to dismiss your current one and ask the other to join.
• When dismissed, the follower returns to wherever you first found them (e.g. Lydia can be found at Dragonsreach in Whiterun).
• You can equip followers with additional, or better weapons and armor to make them even more valuable assets to combat situations.
• When sneaking, your follower will sneak with you.
• All the parameters around successful stealth apply to followers, as well. (For example, a follower with Heavy Armor will probably give away your position despite your own prudence.)
• Some followers will use a bow when you use a bow, if the follower has a bow equipped and the target is not at close range.
• If you give a torch to a follower, he or she will use it to light the way at night, or in a dark area. The follower can do this even when holding a two-handed weapon, such as a great sword.
• A follower will not be able to accept additional items from you once his or her weight limit is reached.  You may, however get him or her to carry more than this limit by dropping items and commanding the follower to pick them up.  (This might be a bug, as it does not appear to make the follower move any slower.)
• When a follower's health becomes too low, he or she will stop fighting and crawl on the ground. The follower can be killed while in this state, but if you are near, enemy combatants will turn their attention to you, instead.

Party of Five or More

Although only one follower fights by your side, you can recruit multiple quest NPCs and use other tricks to create an Insane Crown Posse, potentially having many, many people in your current party.

Animal Followers

Name of Follower	Method for Recruitment
Meeko	You find this dog in the wilds somewhere in Hjaalmarch, or in Mekko's Shack.
Stray Dog	A random encounter in the wild. The dog will stay with you until he dies, or until you tell him to go home, at which point you can later find the dog at the location of the encounter.
Barbas	Dog who assists you during the quest A Daedra's Best Friend.  You may keep the dog as a follower if you begin the quest but never finish it, even if you have another animal follower.
Vigilance	You can buy this dog for 500 gold from a man named Banning who usually hangs around Markarth Stables.

The Little Mermaid - Official Teaser Trailer

Check out the teaser trailer for The Little Mermaid, the upcoming live-action reimagining of the animated musical classic. The film stars Halle Bailey as Ariel, Daveed Diggs as the voice of Sebastian, Jacob Tremblay as the voice of Flounder, Awkwafina as the voice of Scuttle, Jonah Hauer-King as Prince Eric, Art Malik as Sir Grimsby, Noma Dumezweni as Queen Selina, Javier Bardem as King Triton, and Melissa McCarthy as Ursula. The Little Mermaid is the beloved story of Ariel, a beautiful and spirited young mermaid with a thirst for adventure. The youngest of King Triton's daughters, and the most defiant, Ariel longs to find out more about the world beyond the sea, and while visiting the surface, falls for the dashing Prince Eric. While mermaids are forbidden to interact with humans, Ariel must follow her heart. She makes a deal with the evil sea witch, Ursula, which gives her a chance to experience life on land, but ultimately places her life – and her father's crown – in jeopardy. The Little Mermaid, directed by Rob Marshall, opens in theaters nationwide on May 26, 2023.
