Esbern

Esbern is a Nord priest at the Great Chapel of Arkay in Cheydinhal who is added by the Knights of the Nine official download. He will appear as a replacement for Hil the Tall if he is killed (no matter what the cause) at the end of the Umaril the Unfeathered quest.

His schedule and services are nearly identical to those of Hil the Tall, especially in that he also offers basic training in Illusion. Esbern sleeps in the Chapel Hall from 12am to 6am, and after he wakes up, he will immediately head to the Chapel Main Hall to pray in front of the Altar of the Nine for two hours. At 8am he will stop praying and simply stroll around the Chapel until 12pm. He will then head outside to roam around the small island along the river in the east side of the town, where he will relax for two hours. Before he starts with his second moment of praying, Esbern will spend two hours wandering around the Chapel Hall until 4pm, when he will surface in the Chapel Main Hall again to pray for a second time.

When the clock hits 6pm, Esbern will retire to the Chapel Hall again and stroll around the area for two hours. At 8pm, he will grab a piece of food and will sit in one of the available chairs and eat a two-hour dinner. Once he has finished, he will wander around the Hall again for two additional hours, until he finds a bed and goes to sleep. Esbern's services will be available at any time of the day, except when he is sleeping or wandering around Cheydinhal. On rainy days, Esbern will skip his trip to the island at noon and will instead spend the two hours in the Chapel Hall, offering his services for two additional hours.

Esbern wears burgundy linens, a pair of thick cowhide shoes, and a burgundy linen shirt. He carries a small amount of gold and the keys to the Cheydinhal chapel and its undercroft. Esbern knows a leveled set of priest spells (always strongest for his skill level), as well an extra random-leveled major Restoration spell.

Notes[edit]

  • Esbern is one of only two replacement NPCs, alongside Aron Verethi, whose inventory isn't identical to the person they're replacing.
