Did a heavenly choir sing a bright chord in his mind at the moment he saw her?

I'll meet you at Dustman's Cairn, he says.Β
It'll only be a while, he says.Β
While doing this quest, I left Farkas for so long that he got killed by a Spriggan. Whoops.Β Β

Really? I thought he was supposed to be essential until you finish the whole questline.

You never know what a bod combination of mods can do.

Thanks, I'm planning on making more for a long time, but somehow just can't get to it.

I understand.

The same thing happened to me once. Β Took me ages to remember that I had abandoned Farkas.

Yeah, I also didn't know about it right away.

Awesome! And damn it, Lydia is hot! Hell I married her once!

Ahahaha I hate when that happensΒ

Yeah, why can't we just have more followers at a time?
π: 0 β©: 1
It actually let me have 2 followers at a time before, it was with Serana and this one thane guy I forget his name though

But only during the first quest.
When later she told me that she doesn't want any other followers, I was like OK, and left Lydia for a while. Later I decided that I prefer travelling with Lydia, but that stupid vampire returned over and over in every quest location and forced Lydia to leave each time...

Ahww sorry about that

Yeah, I can also see on the Interent, that most people tend to like Vilkas more. I myself prefer Farkas. He taught me much about heavy armor and it was the first skill I maxed.
π: 0 β©: 1
I liked Farkas right away and preferred him to Vilkas (because he's actually nice to you, unlike Vilkas), but then as I got higher level I started to take notice of his broken skill set and he just was very frustrating to have as a follower. By the time I got around to downloading a mod to fix him I had already married Vilkas.Β Β #FriendZoned

I've never used any of them as followers, besides some quests during the Companions' questline.
Besides these few quests and the Dawnguard questline (Serana) I travel with Lydia all the time.

I've been trying out different followers out of curiosity lately, but I always go back to Vilkas. Can't beat killing dragons and bandits with your honey at your side!Β

I try different followers with different characters, but when I find one that I like (and that I don't use with any other character) he/she usually stays for good.
So Obi-Wan has Lydia, my Bosmer assassin works alone, my Dunmer vampire travels with Eola, an Altmer mage with Faralda from Winterhold (console

My vampire has Sanguine as her follower.

Whoa, that's a powerful ally!

He saved my butt from this fireball-shooting mage. Vie lives to murder innocents for yet another day!

Haha! Awesome! It's always a good feeling when you meet that right follower for you/your Dragonborn.

And the best is that I didn't know about it then! First I was actually going to marry Aela, but after some adventures together I fell in love with Lydia. 
π: 0 β©: 1
That's okay, the burning heart is really cute! 
At least you didn't go up to Lydia with the intention to marry her to only realize she wasn't marriageable. That's how things really happened between Jenna and Erik in my game (because my fiance's named Erik, I wanted Jenna to marry someone with the same name. And I was playing on the PS3 so no mods or relationship pranks available

It must be nice to have a person in game with the same name as your boyfriend!
I knew Lydia was marriagealbe but when I was about to make a proposal*, it turned out that I don't have my game patched! But eventually we've got married and lived long and happily ever after...
* It took me some time to make this decision, I was actually hesitating between Lydia and Aela or not getting married at all, the story when she disappeared had major influence on my final decision.

Yeah, it's nice until I'm playing the game and talking to the NPC aloud and my boyfriend thinks I'm talking to him. 
Very cool that you have a hamster named Lucien! I think if I were to do anything more that references Skyrim, my fiance might call off the wedding.
I'm glad you were able to marry Lydia! After reading your story, I can tell you/Obi-Wan had a real strong emotional bond with her.
I have yet to get married in any of my games. Part of the reason is the one game in which I know who I want to marry, the character is not a high enough level to unlock that marriage candidate (I have an Orc who I feel is destined to be with Argis the Bulwark, but she's not level 20 yet).Β

My brother stares strangely at me when I talk to NPCs, even if his name's not Lydia.
Are you sure lvl 20 is required to marry Argis? I think you can unlock him at any level.
π: 0 β©: 1
Haha! That would be interesting if you did have a brother named Lydia, though.
Oh, maybe you just have to be level 20 to purchase Vlindrel Hall. That's probably my confusion, since I don't recall a time where I've been named Thane of a hold and didn't immediately purchase the house to go with the housecarl.

Oh, sorry, you're right. As UESP says: If Igmund is Jarl, you must complete Kill the Forsworn Leader, followed by Dungeon Delving, the latter of which requires you to be at least level 20.

No worries! I'm glad you checked my "facts"

So, do all the followers have a Facebook group or something to keep each other informed of when they're following the Dragonborn?
π: 0 β©: 1
Looks like they definitely do. Now we finally know their secret!

And now Obi-Wan joins the ranks of comic dragonborns! Welcome to the club. Got to say this is pretty good.Β
π: 0 β©: 1
Thanks! Yours aren't bad too!
I hope I'll be able to make more of them, but the following months are going to be quite busy for me, so they'll have to wait...

I wouldn't worry about Farkas, the man is unparalleled in patience. He'd outlast a mountain in a staring contest.
Nice comic!
