Vigilance

When I originally bought Skyrim, I didn't care for the fact you could have a dog. I didn't really see the point. And indeed, in 100 hours, I only bought a dog once (in the last hour, in fact).

The chosen hound was Vigilance. He was only 500 coins, and I ran into him by accident. So I decided, why not? At worst, I've wasted a very small amount of money. At best, it'll be fun to Fus Ro Dah him off a cliff, right?

I love the little [&@%!].

At first, I didn't care. But together, we fought a dragon. Or, I did. The cheeky bugger showed up after the fight was over. I laughed, but ignored him.

Sneaking my way through a Dragur crypt, I heard a noise from behind me. "Oh crap..." I turned around, just in time to see Vigilance bite the head (metaphorically) off a dragur.

So, this is a love thread for the dogs of Skyrim. You keep us lonely Dovahkiins (Dovahkiini sounds like a Dragon Bikini) company!

Wondering if there's a Stoop and Scoop law in Skyrim.

I used to do that voluntarily, but then I took an arrow to the knee.

Where can one purchase a dog? or attain one regardless?

The stables of Markarth OR Meeko's Shack southwest of Solitude.

Funny. I find it so easy to get attached to the characters in Skyrim... not to say that I don't dispose of them when necessary

I used to like the dogs of Skyrim, then I took a Barbas in the knee.

He doesn't follow you, you follow him.
Like in Soviet Russia.

It's what random guards said in-game. "I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took an arrow in the knee"

Comments on this thread make my day

man... Vigilance died like 2 minutes after i got him. I bought him and then just down the road from Markarth Stables, some Orc wanted a "honourable death". Vigilance died in a fight with him. Maybe just my bad luck

This. In a nutshell...

If you take him exploring he likes to shove you into things...

Spoiler:

Also this game needs a husky type of Dog...what happened to the Dogmeat style dogs from Oblivion?
