Sceolang is an armored husky dog. Together with Bran, he can be found around the dog pen inside Fort Dawnguard. Sceolang, just like Bran, wears red leather armor akin to Dawnguard Armor and can be freely employed as a war dog. He levels with the Dragonborn from 10–25. The Dragonborn must complete the quest "A New Order" to have the option to make Sceolang a follower; the same is true for Bran.
Location
Once the Dragonborn has joined Dawnguard, and completed the quests above, they can find Bran and Sceolang near or in a pen where they can ask, "Whats the matter? Do you want to kill some vampires with me?" and he will follow. This is the same with Bran.
Trivia
- The name "Sceolang" is a reference to the Irish legends of Fionn mac Cumhaill, an Irish hero who had two war hounds, Bran and Sceolang.
- As with his counterpart in Hearthfire, Sceolang and Bran can be turned into pets if the Dragonborn has children. Upon entering the property they will ask if they can keep them, to which the Dragonborn can agree or disagree.
- Sceolang and Bran are modeled after real-life huskies, unlike most dogs found in Skyrim, which have the appearance of Irish wolfhounds. This is rather ironic, since the two hounds in mythology are depicted as Irish Wolfhounds.
Bugs
This section contains bugs related to Sceolang. Before adding a bug to this list, consider the following:
|
- Sceolang may float through the roof of Fort Dawnguard, if he stands still for a while.
- 360 He occasionally will not respond to follower commands. To fix it, the Dragonborn can ask him again.
- Sometimes when trying to use the follower commands to dismiss or have Sceolang wait, the options will be there but are unable to be chosen. Reloading a save seems to be the only way to fix this.
- 360 Sceolang may sometimes not respond to any commands, and just bark.
- PC Sceolang may sometimes become invisible to the Dragonborn when entering a new area.
- PC (Fix) This can be fixed by re-entering the area or going to a different location.
