Which followers do you guys think make the best blades, whether it be their skills, the lore works, or just because they look badass in Blades armor?

i definately agree with you. Picked Uthgerd for his will to be a part of something greater, like a redemtion of sorts. Picked Golldir with the same purpose, he has nothing to do back at that old tomb (also being good with sword, shield and heavy armor), I think Ugor actually died on me before I even meet her.
I personallyh recruit homeless followers like cosnach (no more sleeping between lowlife), aranea lenith, ilia and erandur (good characters turned into loners),
so the set up is 3 mages 1 melee: tank with decent defense+ magic to attack from range,
if feel the need of the azura black star goldir / erik are a nice options....
but thats just my likes, to role pla with them. give them a new start, and since I dont use them so much, its ok for me
I usually go with Uthgerd (strong warrior who wants a cause), either Erandur (Mage/Healer also in need of a cause) or Talvas Fathryon (Mage who is looking for someone new to boss him around) and Adelaisa Vendicci (her skills of smithing, alchemy and enchanting will be useful to the Blades and through her contacts at the East Empire Trading Company, she’ll be able to easily - and quietly - get anything the Blades need, as well as help individual Blades travel around Skyrim and the Empire undetected).
I usually induct Derkeethus and Mjoll, but I always have a tough time trying to find a third person to induct, because the other two (spoiler incoming for anyone who may not know this really cool trick.) can't be killed. :)
I like to go with:
- Goldir (lonely boi, Heavy armor, 1H + Shield)
- Aranea Lenith (Magic, observed using variety)
- Benor (Cuz 2H, Heavy armor)
nobody seems to particularly relate to dragons, w regards to like followers. so i use erik, annekke, and ghorbash, as they wanted adventure. i figured lore-wise, they work, as opposed to rando mercenaries in it for money, mage students, vigilante women, etc.
I go with Kajargo (Moon amulet quest kahjit), Jzargo (College Kahjit), and Benor (Roams around Morthol. He wanted to be a guard but they wouldn't let him).
