To start, something fun! A small quest leads you to find a child’s story book, which in turn lets you find Rupert, a real teddy bear. These mods are not in any order of favourite, though I will say that Rupert and Sofia are two of my favourites for hilarious reasons, and Misty comes a close third for the amount of innuendo dropping she does. All of these mods can be found on the Nexus. Please note, a couple of these will require other mods and a couple are very much of an adult nature.
Granted, there’s a bunch more possible followers that one could find in Skyrim (Illia, Jennesa, Uthgerd, Aela, Jordis, Rayya, Freya… you get the idea), but even with all of those there are still modders out there that have made some really interesting follower mods. If there’s one thing Skyrim is known for … I mean aside from arrows to the knee … or someone stealing your sweet roll … or perhaps the really weird horse physics that allow you to scale huge mountains … it happens to be followers.
