The following page is dedicated to creating custom followers via console commands, as well as a list of potential characters for the conversion.
BriefingEdit
Most NPCs can be converted into followers if one has their factions and relationship rank altered, since their AI is tied to the factions they are. This allows you to convert character with special service (e.g. blacksmith, spellcasters, unique NPCs) into your followers. Alternatively, you can create your own follower and spouse via Creation Kit if you have a matching character voice set with follower option.
Creating Follower Via Console CommandsEdit
PC By placing character, alternating relationship rank and modifying factions via console commands, some Characters can be converted into followers by force.
- Step 1: Searching for NPCs, can be town NPC or character with race as the names: Dealer, Hroki, Wood Elf, High Elf, etc. -

- Step 3: modify their relationship rank:

(optional: 4 for spouse) - Step 4: modify player's relationship rank:
player.setrelationshiprank <TargetedID> 3

removefac <HostileFactionID>
(Bandit Ally Faction and Warlock Ally Faction, mostly) - Step 7: remove aggression actor value:
SetAV Aggression 0
. - Step 8: set essential status:
setessential #
(0 is non-essential, 1 is essential) - Step 9: resurrect the NPC if they are killed due to the NPC being hostile before, by typing
resurrect
- Step 10: modify inventory by either using
<equip/unequip/add/remove>item <BaseID>
or recycling actor usingrecycleactor

- Sometimes the follower option might be gone after marriage or death under this condition.
- Solution: use
setrelationshiprank <TargetID> 3
andplayer.setrelationshiprank <TargetID> 3

P.S. not guaranteed to work on all NPCs, it only works on NPC summoned via character model Base ID instead of radiant ID.

Character Model Generation MechanicsEdit
Characters IDs are identified via specified number and letter formation to distinguish between Character Model ID and Radiant ID, the following is an example:
- Bandits are generated with radiant character Base ID or Ref ID, while their base ID can be uncovered in console commands by typing
help
. - The first two number determines their character type (Bandit Rank), the third letter determines character type (D: class, D: design, E: encounter/radiant).
- The fourth number determines the variant's race (e.g. 6 is always Bosmer) while the fifth one determines facial variants. e.g. 39D67 will always spawn bosmer female.
- While radiant characters' fourth number can be letter as well, this avoids using the same Base ID so the AI won't be bugged.
- All bandits models are generated within the same BaseIDs, therefore their facial features are not entirely generated randomly.
- With the exception of TreasCorpseBanditWoodElfFemale, her Base ID does not follow this rule, although she can still be generated with radiant characters.
What to convertEdit
The following are recommended to convert into followers:
- Characters with its race as its names – their AI and inventory can be toggled freely without suffering any consequences
- Citizens – some provides services which are handy, especially merchants and blacksmiths.
- Spellcasters – they provide decent ranged attack or conjured creatures to assist you, a notable example includes Alva.
- Bandits – Unlike most enemies, they do provide follower service after conversion.
- Vampires – They also provide follower options as well, oddly, female vampires summoned via Vanilla Version Template Base ID often interact with other female NPCs nearby actively, except Alva.
- Characters with 'EvenTone,' 'Commoner,' 'Sultry' and 'YoungEager' voice set can mostly be converted into followers.
What not to convertEdit
The following are not recommended to convert into followers:
- Necromancers, they do not provide follower service, with the exception of one Breton female Arch Necromancer.
- Thalmor agents, they do not provide follower service as well.
- Hold Guard, they do not provide follower dialogues and they always respawn.
- Characters with 'ElfHaughty,' 'FemaleNord,' 'Commander,' voice set do not contain follower option.
- Unique NPCs without dialogues (Harkon, Miraak, etc.)
- NPCs with unique voice actors (Ancano, Elenwen, etc.)
- Character models made for projecting Daedric Prince voices (Voice of Namira, Molag Bal, Azura, etc.)
- Randomly generated characters.
- Characters involving quest prior to completion.
- Creatures and undead.
- Deceased characters.
