I have kind of an odd question. When you make an NPC your housecarl what factions does it add them to?

tecknode: you need to select the npc first, and it doesn't mean there are 3 digits

This phrasing "addtofaction XXX" maybe "player.addtofaction XXX 1" but the returned code is MORE than XXX, one Help return I got = 08002310.

Need exact/correct phrasing for command.

I killed him, and Gregor (or w/e) is next at Heljarchen Hall, they take up too much room and who knows what they get up to while I'm out slaying dragons and freezing Nechromancers and the like xD

For that Windstad Manor you obviously have to use the HF version of this mod.
kalamaty 12 Jan, 2014 @ 4:05am 
He's been assigned to Winstad Manor and I will have to kill him, but then, will be without a housecarl, I have a steward (Uthgerd) and a chosen wife (Hroki) but would also love the male gigilo to beat it xD I want a Hareem!

I don't want a housecarls i have, how doI change to female one without killing him... I have tried a few mods, but they dont overwrite the housecarls already in situ (Valdimir) help?

i have the legend of the eagles nest house mod, will i still be able to get a housecarl??

I did some research a while back and actually, a "husk-arl" was a cooking and cleaning servant. Skyrim turned it into armed bodyguard, but it would be more accurate to history, and more accurate to living daily life, if they also use the cookpots and sweep floors sometimes. I mean, every person has to eat, and every person must clean up the dirt they bring in, if they keep a clean home :-)

Is there a faction code for these housecarls? So that I could (using console commands) add anyone I wanted to that faction and make them a housecarl?
cmzpowrrangr 2 Apr, 2013 @ 7:39pm 
lukeh can you have khajiit as housecarls?
The Butcherman 30 Dec, 2012 @ 2:41pm 
thx ;)
lukeh_ro  [author] 30 Dec, 2012 @ 11:52am 
Till i update the description type "sqv lh_housecarls" and you'll be able to see the potential ones with their name and ref_id scrolling with PgUp/Dn. They are the hirelings, companions non circle, two orcs and a few other followers that fill the fighter profile and don't hve complex quests.
Don't forget to check the Hearthfire version if you have the addon.
The Butcherman 29 Dec, 2012 @ 4:13pm 
And where can I find these potential houscarls?
Chainsawdeth 13 Dec, 2012 @ 4:52pm 
Jobs for huscarl suggestion- automaticlly loot fallen foes
Jocash 4 Dec, 2012 @ 3:10pm 
ok, thanks
lukeh_ro  [author] 4 Dec, 2012 @ 3:03pm 
Did you checked your options? If she was already with the blades when you subscribed to this mod you should be able to ask someone else imidiatly to be housecarl, if you sent it afterwards you should still be able to dismiss her.
Jocash 4 Dec, 2012 @ 12:18pm 
She's already at the blades now doI have to start a new game to dismiss her?
Jocash 4 Dec, 2012 @ 12:16pm 
Ok, local tavern huh? lol sounds like Lydia. lol Thanks
lukeh_ro  [author] 4 Dec, 2012 @ 11:24am 
@jocah
You can. She'll go to the local tavern when you fire her.
Jocash 4 Dec, 2012 @ 7:46am 
So I can dismiss Lydia and replace her with someone else? Can I then take Lydia to the Blades? Or is she gone forever?

lukeh_ro  [author] 7 Nov, 2012 @ 2:17am 
It will be, I have to get Hearthfire first :)
AlphaGodith 5 Nov, 2012 @ 11:46am 
very much hoping this will be updated to work for the hearthfire housecarls as well...
njalsson 3 Nov, 2012 @ 9:02pm 
can I have more then one housecarl?if not,then I would like you to make that possible
lukeh_ro  [author] 29 Oct, 2012 @ 12:39am 
@Darkmear
I plan to add, after HF support, a single additional housecarl besides 8 you normally have, he/she'll be your Winterhold housecarl but you'll be able to select a custom house even outside Winterhold. Tough it will be recommended for RP purposes to chose a house in that hold, the hire dialogue will be something like "I need a housecarl in Winterhold".
On the other hand you'll be able to use followers mods that allow you to set home for any of them, but no more than 9 housecarls will be ever available.
Drakmear 28 Oct, 2012 @ 11:43am 
this mod looks like it's going to be really great...will it work with custom houses though or just the houses you earn at the main cities?
Shir Blackwater 28 Oct, 2012 @ 6:27am 
Finally a way to get rid of those pesky freeloading housecarls without resorting to murder or having to go out of my way to have them killed in combat.

I'll be keeping an eye on this mod :)
xshagroth 27 Oct, 2012 @ 4:08pm

lukeh_ro  [author] 26 Oct, 2012 @ 12:03pm 
Stewards? This is about housecarls and you can get as many as vanilla homes you have...2 in your case.
Warsun 26 Oct, 2012 @ 3:36am

The Riddler 16 Oct, 2012 @ 4:32am
