So even though ive played for a while, I started a new file and I never know many of the followers because I act alone. But being a mage and (embarassingly) easily startled in caves when fighting Draugr, Undead, anything not quite human I find myself in need of a good meat shield and companion for cave exploration. I havent done Dark Brotherhood yet and am savung that till im a bit higher leveled for better loot and rewards and stuff since I normally just summon the dead dude. But I was just wondering: people of Skyrim which followers have you noticed dont die in vattle completely? Is there anyone that I can hire or request that will stay alive and keep me company on my travels?
