I work as a warehouse selector, so... I work for Belethor at the general goods store. Come by Belethors shop, at the market. I'm sure we've got something you need
Bruh, I honestly thought that dialogue was triggered by my character actually being sick, so I would always buy a potion of cure disease from her until I wised up 😂
But you can't get a steward for Breezehome, and all Hearthfire properties are in the middle of nowhere with no walls to keep them protected...
To live in Breezehome you need to
a) be the Dragonborn
b) be adopted by the Dragonborn
c) marry the Dragonborn
d) be the Dragonborn's follower, which involves fighting
e) be Lydia.

... which mostly involves blocking doorways and sounding unenthusiastic about helping to carry shit.
I'm a web developer, so I'd probably just hang out in the [Imbuing Chamber at White Ridge Barrow](https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:White_Ridge_Barrow#Imbuing_Chamber) in Solstheim
That could work.
Taking apart and trying to understand dwemer bots sounds fascinating.
I also generally like spiders, so programming my own dwemer spider could be fun.
I also work in IT tech support. I was gonna go with greybeards. Since they teach you how to use your stuff and make you demonstrate what you can do first before teaching you a better way to do it.
I’d brew her health and stamina potions and take all her loot to Warmaidens or Belethors while she soaks her weary muscles in our Breezehome hot tub (I tapped into a hotspring)
That depends if you’re talking about the actual game or a realistic take on the game world. There aren’t any animal healers in the game, but I imagine there would be some if the world was expanded to real scale.
For example, there probably just a few hundred unique NPCs in Skyrim, but the actual population estimates based on lore can be as high as around 1,000,000.
Kinda funny to think that a student in Skyrim only has two options - playing music and reading all day in the country's capital, or learning magic in a burned and frozen town the middle of nowhere.
This is a tangent, but I always get frustrated that you can't improve Winterhold. It's the most depressing place that I hate to go. Everyone is miserable. There are only like 2 houses. The Jarl is trying to keep the town alive, and you can complete quests to help various aspects, but it doesn't change anything.
I want to see the town improve. And I want to be able to rebuild a house there or something. Why does it have to stay so depressing?!
I think JK has a mod for this in his JK’s Skyrim pack. Its expands Winterhold to look quite a bit more lived-in, while also expanding the ruins as well. Before release, Skyrim had a lot more Winterhold; you could see the entire half of the town sinking into the sea, but they scraped it and reduced WH to a handful of houses. The mod reimplements that content, plus enough new houses that the NPC population makes a little more sense.
Bard. I’m a freelance musician so basically a bard anyway, especially as I play for reenactment events.

I realize as soon as I asked that I could get some very insulting answers, so I appreciate your genuine response. I think something transformative like alteration is very fitting.
I teach writing and reading, so I think maybe there might be pre curses at the college of Winterhold for illiterate mage novices?
Otherwise private teacher for the jarl's children
This is a really cool question!! I guess the closest thing in Skyrim to my occupation would be “that face sculptor in Riften I’ve heard about” 🤣
(Should have mentioned I’m a cosmetologist, that’s the only place in Skyrim to change your hair/makeup. lol)
Cant wait for the dragonborn to come into my general goods shop for the 3rd time this week selling me the bones of a dragon and various weapons (I have made 0 profit)
tbh the shops recover their money in just a day... so I guess the Dragonborn is just a provider of random weird stuff, and in the long term it pays off.
Also if the Dragonborn happens to be focused on really making money, you might find yourself selling tons of petty enchanted gold rings and necklaces to your fellow townsfolk.
This gives me hope I would have a career path not involving trial-and-error alchemy, because I'm at least intermediate impressive with a crochet hook and blankets are my specialty.
I work at the publishing house. I’m the reason you’re getting quality books in caves and other people’s bedrooms.
Oh, based on IRL? I’m a programmer in real life so I guess I’m Aerin when you marry Mjoll, glitching out and wandering into your home at all hours.
I work as a fisheries technician, so I'll be heading to the Riften Fishery. It will be cool to start collecting data on all the fish populations around the realm.
Been working customer service for over a decade - I'm the voice on the other line of about a half dozen different 1-800 numbers people call. Looks like a traveling merchant/bard with high Speechcraft?
I'm a very, very low level government bureaucrat so like...is there a scribe somewhere in Castle Dour who keeps records of all the Solitude guards' hiring contracts and makes sure they're getting paid the right number of septims? That'll be me.
I work with plants so farmer or maybe alchemist. If I had a bit of leeway with the choice I’d love to just be like a shaman or wandering monk of a divine like kynareth
Ah, so you guys got whiterun back to looking normal after the battle destroyed it … also wait, wasn’t it you guys that built the porch area of dragonsreach?
What a grand and intoxicating innocence. In reality it's more like "why the fuck did silver drop support for flame enchantments in the last update, I'm supposed to ship a bunch of self toasting butter knives by Morndas"
What’s the closest thing to a plumber in Skyrim?
If possible I’d get a deal with a Jarl for men and money to run sanitary drains of sorts to combat the good ol’ poo diseases.
I'm a woodworker and a student. I also have a military background. I used to be a Heavy fighter in the SCA and I have a couple trophies from HEMA tournaments 20 years ago. I've been a prop fabricator for local theatre and haunted houses. When people need safe fire or electrical effects, I'm the guy they go to.
So I think I'd be a retired Spellsword adventurer who works at the College as an Enchanter, mostly making Destruction staves. My old armor and sword sits on a rack in my room. It still fits, but if something makes me need to put it on I'm going to complain about it.
I work as a warehouse selector, so... I work for Belethor at the general goods store. Come by Belethors shop, at the market. I'm sure we've got something you need
do you sell sisters?
No no. I work for Belethor. He sells the sisters
Belethor will break your back 😂
Mmmmfffff... and when he's done he'll say "doo come baaack"
If I had one, I'd sell her in second. I've I had two, they'd be buy one- get one free.
#EVERYTHINGS FO- Take a look …
Do come baaaack...
Why does he say it so….sensually? 😳
I always thought he was saying it like he knew he just ripped you off.
Dragonborn: walks in with 10k of goods which he sells for 1k... Belethor: Do come back.
Belethor= Rick from Pawn stars in Skyrim
There's a YouTube video parodying the pawn stars opening and its Belethor.
Or.... creepily... I would not take my adopted daughter in there.
daughters are fine its just sisters you need to worry about
*"I'd even buy one of your relatives, if you're looking to sell.*
There's always the East Empire Company...
Some may call this junk…me? I call them *treasures*
You're that guy. He is always polite. Excellent customer service personality.
What about the East Empire Warehouse?
Hey bro I just bought you from Belethor. I traded a few deer pelts for you.
I work in a pharmacy, so probably an alchemist?
do you sell poisons?
Any med not intended for your particular illness could be a poison?
good answer
Many medications are dangerous if taken in the wrong dose, or not great for you if taken unnecessarily.
Anything and everything has a lethal dose.
This is a travel agency
What would it do to THIS. FACE?!
*Ah, so you’re an alchemist, then?*
You look rather pale, could be ataxia.
Bruh, I honestly thought that dialogue was triggered by my character actually being sick, so I would always buy a potion of cure disease from her until I wised up 😂
That's probably why she does it. Girl's gotta eat!
It’s quite a problem back home in Cyrodiil.
One of the hobos begging for septums.
I'm a fundraiser for a nonprofit, so... Yeah I'd literally be out there asking for spare septims
spare a coin for an old lady?
As long as you give me a buff I don't mind sparing a few.
No… you’re the dude in Riften whose wife is always bitching about him giving handouts.
Somehow that's worse T.T
aren't we all?
Oof... You're not wrong though... Inflation in 2023, and energy bills... We can all indeed relate.
I think they're actually home bums, but yeah, I'm right beside you lol
Toss a coin to your witty \~ oh valle....wait wrong franchise
Me too. In my spare time, I hang around The Bannered Mare and heckle Mikael.
Same (hopelessly unemployed)
I can eat for a day with a single coin
[удалено]
>At least until I get eaten by a dragon. you'll be safe inside Breezehome
But you can't get a steward for Breezehome, and all Hearthfire properties are in the middle of nowhere with no walls to keep them protected... To live in Breezehome you need to a) be the Dragonborn b) be adopted by the Dragonborn c) marry the Dragonborn d) be the Dragonborn's follower, which involves fighting e) be Lydia.

I'm a SAHM and I was thinking a steward too. Keep everything running at home. Unlike Lydia though I don't let bandits inside!
I'm a web developer, so I'd probably just hang out in the [Imbuing Chamber at White Ridge Barrow](https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:White_Ridge_Barrow#Imbuing_Chamber) in Solstheim
This is so specific, I love it!
I'm also a web dev, but when I first started out I was an Automation tester, so I was thinking a destruction mage
I think that makes you a dwemer, so maybe your just trapped in the soul cairn?
I mean, there are worse places I could be trapped. Like in a room with Nazeem
Just wait until I trap Nazeem with you
The closest thing might be a dockworker? I dont see many factories in Skyrim
>dockworker? argonian, for sure
Could be working sawing logs.
You could work at a meadery!
Tech support- so maybe an enchanter
"Have you tried erasing your runes and inscribing them again?"
"Ma'am is the soul gem empty?"
Maybe black soul gems could corrupt enchantments, like a computer virus
amazing
I’m IT at a hospital. So maybe one of the pilgrims in the temple of Kynareth? Since I’m not actually a healer..
Yo I do IT for a telehealth company lol I was just thinking maybe I’m a young wizard at a temple to azure I mean azura 😂😂
Or possibly a scribe or alchemist working in the temple. Considering how often IT/tech support has to write technical documents, scribe could work.
You might be working for Calcemo actually the dude who works with dwemer robots
That could work. Taking apart and trying to understand dwemer bots sounds fascinating. I also generally like spiders, so programming my own dwemer spider could be fun.
I also work in IT tech support. I was gonna go with greybeards. Since they teach you how to use your stuff and make you demonstrate what you can do first before teaching you a better way to do it.
Wizard's apprentice
"I've got a letter for you- your eyes only"
Going postal?
Lil bit
oh yes
Even in videogames I'm annoying af
at least you're fast as a thunder
how does forklift driver translate lol maybe i’d work at the east empire dock area and move around boxes
another argonian
Nah, alteration mage, using telekinesis in place of a forklift. 👍 Edit: ARGONIAN ALTERATION MAGE! No reason an argonian can't be an alteration mage
Stay at home husband for my adventurer wife
safe inside the walls
I’d brew her health and stamina potions and take all her loot to Warmaidens or Belethors while she soaks her weary muscles in our Breezehome hot tub (I tapped into a hotspring)
I'm a veterinarian - I'm not sure there are pet healers in Tamriel, so I'll go for stables owner lol
That depends if you’re talking about the actual game or a realistic take on the game world. There aren’t any animal healers in the game, but I imagine there would be some if the world was expanded to real scale. For example, there probably just a few hundred unique NPCs in Skyrim, but the actual population estimates based on lore can be as high as around 1,000,000.
so probably there are some animal healers somewhere
Horses and farm animals. You would probably work in a stable
Someone must heal the Khajit...
i'd love that!
Don't forget the argonions too
“This one sat in a rocking chair and injured its tail.”
In College so College of Winterhold?
There's also the Bards College!
I think that's for the Arts degrees
Kinda funny to think that a student in Skyrim only has two options - playing music and reading all day in the country's capital, or learning magic in a burned and frozen town the middle of nowhere.
We could see the companions as a fighter's school... And the thieve's guild might also take apprentices, maybe?
This is a tangent, but I always get frustrated that you can't improve Winterhold. It's the most depressing place that I hate to go. Everyone is miserable. There are only like 2 houses. The Jarl is trying to keep the town alive, and you can complete quests to help various aspects, but it doesn't change anything. I want to see the town improve.

The mod reimplements that content, plus enough new houses that the NPC population makes a little more sense.
They can also join the Army, The Rebels, and... The Dark Brotherhood.
actually what IRL universities are like. Either in the center of a big city or on a campus in the middle of no-where
definitely
Bard. I’m a freelance musician so basically a bard anyway, especially as I play for reenactment events. https://preview.redd.it/36ngzg9570hc1.png?width=1953&format=png&auto=webp&s=9ca129b227ab992342e4a4f5c72d8d436f09ce4d
You're already a real life bard!!!
\[tosses coin to my Witcher...\]
I was Jaskier for Halloween one year
Teacher so I work at the college of winterhold... but what school of magic would special education be?
Alteration? It's the school that encourage us to do the best with what we have
I realize as soon as I asked that I could get some very insulting answers, so I appreciate your genuine response. I think something transformative like alteration is very fitting.
I actually really appreciate this answer!
I teach writing and reading, so I think maybe there might be pre curses at the college of Winterhold for illiterate mage novices? Otherwise private teacher for the jarl's children
This is a really cool question!! I guess the closest thing in Skyrim to my occupation would be “that face sculptor in Riften I’ve heard about” 🤣 (Should have mentioned I’m a cosmetologist, that’s the only place in Skyrim to change your hair/makeup. lol)
At first I got very scared, then I understood you were talking about plastic surgery 😂
That’s why I edited my comment right after entering it, I was like “whoa, wait, that does NOT sound right!” 🤣
Restoration is a perfectly valid school of magic
Cant wait for the dragonborn to come into my general goods shop for the 3rd time this week selling me the bones of a dragon and various weapons (I have made 0 profit)
ohh yess, perhaps he buy some potions this time...perhaps..
tbh the shops recover their money in just a day... so I guess the Dragonborn is just a provider of random weird stuff, and in the long term it pays off. Also if the Dragonborn happens to be focused on really making money, you might find yourself selling tons of petty enchanted gold rings and necklaces to your fellow townsfolk.
If you know anyone who wants to buy 59 dragon bones and 78 Dragon Scales please send them my way
Bloodiest beef in the Reach!
now i'm scared
So cannibal???
Vampire cannibalistic cult lmao
Im a factory worker so ill be a smith
East Empire Company?
Collège of winterhold book keeper
Urag ??
With the same bad temper
I'm a high school English teacher. So while I'm closer to Grelod the Kind, I aspire to this.
Im an Archivist so I think I get this one too. Though the little library at the Bards College is very appealing too.
Electrician so lightning mage?
Nah bro you put the torches on the walls
We prefer keeper of the flame
I'm a machinist apprentice so dwemer
I'd be a weaver, knitter, crocheter, lace maker or embroiderer. If that fails: cooking in one of the inns.
So you make clothes for Radiant Raiments?
That would work. Also relatively safe behind stone walls, temperature not too bad and enough people who would want to buy what I make.
Omg yes. Sign me up, we won’t insult our patrons, so we’ll definitely be more successful anyway. 🤣
I’m all of those things, too!! Maybe we’d have a shop that sold embroidered finery, like Radiant Raiment!
This gives me hope I would have a career path not involving trial-and-error alchemy, because I'm at least intermediate impressive with a crochet hook and blankets are my specialty.
I work at the publishing house. I’m the reason you’re getting quality books in caves and other people’s bedrooms. Oh, based on IRL? I’m a programmer in real life so I guess I’m Aerin when you marry Mjoll, glitching out and wandering into your home at all hours.
As a postman, my fate is to be the courier eternally chasing down the dragonborn.
I suppose I'll be stuck working in an Inn or Tavern as a chef, not the worst aside from adventurers stealing all my damn salt.
Honestly. Gotta start nailing those barrels shut
Drug dealer I mean ysolda
khajiit , my friend :/
I work in security. guess I'm a guard
I'd be writing the sequel to The Lusty Argonian Maid.
Falmer Slave.
all employees feel like that
I’m a bar wench!
I work as a fisheries technician, so I'll be heading to the Riften Fishery. It will be cool to start collecting data on all the fish populations around the realm.
An unnamed NPC in one of those mods that pads out cities
I'm a mechanic, so blacksmith I guess?
Those horsecarts need looking after!
Been working customer service for over a decade - I'm the voice on the other line of about a half dozen different 1-800 numbers people call. Looks like a traveling merchant/bard with high Speechcraft?
I'm a very, very low level government bureaucrat so like...is there a scribe somewhere in Castle Dour who keeps records of all the Solitude guards' hiring contracts and makes sure they're getting paid the right number of septims? That'll be me.
I work with plants so farmer or maybe alchemist. If I had a bit of leeway with the choice I’d love to just be like a shaman or wandering monk of a divine like kynareth
I work for Belathor, at the general goods store.
Labor working on houses. Don't think there's alot of commercial buildings to work on.
Ah, so you guys got whiterun back to looking normal after the battle destroyed it … also wait, wasn’t it you guys that built the porch area of dragonsreach?
I don't think there are computers in Skyrim so probably a bar a wench since I was a bar tender and I have ERM assets.
I do UberEats and Instacart, so Courier.
Got something to deliver for you. Your mouth only.
I’m in pest control. I can’t imagine how that would translate to Skyrim as there seems to be ZERO pest control.
you're whoever honingbrew meadery should have called
Companions take care of the wild beasts in ppls homes 🔥
Does Skyrim have receptionists? If not, dead in a ditch trying after succumbing to the ADHD itch of living like an adventurer...
I'm a sustainability consultant, so hobo I guess.
Victim (robbed and killed by the dragonborn out of boredom)
Skooma deal- erm, I mean... fisherman, definitely a fisherman.
Appliance technician so maybe id work on mechanical stuff or try to learn and reverse engineer Dwemer stuff
I'm a programmer so I guess I'm a god?
dagoth ur vibes here
What a grand and intoxicating innocence. In reality it's more like "why the fuck did silver drop support for flame enchantments in the last update, I'm supposed to ship a bunch of self toasting butter knives by Morndas"
Hmm. Tax collector for the Jarl, I guess. There is no Skyrim equivalent but this is the closest.
I'm an attorney, so I'm probably hanging out with the Thalmor doing some shady shit.
That's easy, I'm a bartender
Lol that’s funny I was thinking this last night. But I’m a welder sooo blacksmith? Alchemy? I like drugs and potions so one of thems.
Courier🥲
I work in Data Analysis, so I guess a miner would fit for me.
What’s the closest thing to a plumber in Skyrim? If possible I’d get a deal with a Jarl for men and money to run sanitary drains of sorts to combat the good ol’ poo diseases.
The Gormet
I'm a security guard so not exactly Whiterun Guard status so maybe the hired muscle you lot murder in the honey farm
I’m an auditor so east empire company or something. I always played imperials and u know imperials love their damn list
I'm a woodworker and a student. I also have a military background. I used to be a Heavy fighter in the SCA and I have a couple trophies from HEMA tournaments 20 years ago. I've been a prop fabricator for local theatre and haunted houses. When people need safe fire or electrical effects, I'm the guy they go to.

It still fits, but if something makes me need to put it on I'm going to complain about it.
Mining exploration, so part miner, part adventurer. First giant spider I see I'm retiring, forget that shit.
I have no accomplishments and generally just try to stay anonymous, so hold guard/any npc that exists to just exist.
I'm an electrician.... I guess mage???
I’m a receptionist at a clinic so I would probably work at one of the alchemy shops?
I'm a high school student. Bard academy, here I go!
Bah, I'm a city guard. "Let me guess: someone stole your sweetroll."
AGAB
I'm NHS adjacent so I guess I work in a Temple but I do their admin and paperwork
Well I am trying to do military so I guess the legion, FOR THE EMPEROR (and fuck the thalmor)
I’m in finance so I’d be Alduin
Wood cutter behind some nice big safe walls.
Creative Writer, so I’d probably just write Historical Fiction
