Vigilant Adalvald

Vigilant Adalvald is a Nord Vigilant of Stendarr, first mentioned by Vigilant Tolan during the first Dawnguard quest. He is later found in Dimhollow Crypt on your first mission as a member of the Dawnguard. When you find him, he is being interrogated by the vampire Lokil, but dies without revealing anything. By his corpse you can find a segment of his notes on the crypt, detailing its connection with Skyrim's ancient vampiric clans.

He wears ragged trousers, either steel cuffed boots or steel plate boots, and an Amulet of Stendarr. His hands are tied with prisoner's cuffs. He also carries a random book. He knows the spells Oakflesh, Healing, and Lesser Ward.

Quest-Related Events[edit]

When you enter Dimhollow Cavern, you will overhear a conversation between Lokil, Vigilant Adalvald, and another vampire. Getting too close will interrupt the conversation, either way Adalvald will be killed:

"So go and meet your beloved Stendarr."
Adalvald: "I'll never tell you anything, vampire. My oath to Stendarr is stronger than any suffering you can inflict on me."
Lokil: "I believe you, Vigilant. And I don't think you even know what you've found here."
[Lokil draws his weapon and strikes Adalvald]
Adalvald: "Peace at last..."
Lokil: "So go and meet your beloved Stendarr."
[Lokil sheathes his weapon and walks towards the stone structure, shortly followed by the other vampire]
Vampire: "Are you sure that was wise, Lokil? He still might have told us something."
[Lokil will interrupt the other vampire]
Vampire: "We haven't gotten anywhere ourselves with..."
Lokil: "He knew nothing. He served his purpose by leading us to this place. Now it is up to us to bring Harkon the prize. And we will not return without it. Vingalmo and Orthjolf will make way for me after this."
Vampire: "Yes, of course Lokil. Do not forget who brought you news of the Vigilants' discovery."
Lokil: "I never forget who my friends are. Or my enemies."

Notes[edit]

  • His death is scripted and there is no way to save him.
    • Even if you attack or kill Lokil before the vampire draws his weapon, Adalvald will just immediately die; despite never being attacked by Lokil or the other vampires.
