| ~ Skjor to The Last Dragonborn |
Skjor was a Nord werewolf, and was one of the members of The Circle of Companions in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. He was also Ex-Legion, and fought during the Great War.
Skjor serves as a mentor and father-figure during the beginning of the Companions questline.
Personality[]
Skjor stood side by side in battle with every member of the Companions, and trusted each of them with his life, which was more than he could say about the family that raised him. As he put it, "The bonds of sweat are stronger than those of blood." Like Aela, he embraces his lycanthropy despite Kodlak's concerns, and is looking forward to spending an eternity in Hircine's hunting grounds.
Skjor once assured Athis, the only elf in the Companions, that his race wasn't an issue because "even an elf can be born with the heart of a Nord". Athis is clearly well aware of the mildly racist connotations of this, but claims that he knows it was meant to be a compliment and so elected to take it as one.
During the Companions quest line in the game, Skjor is the one who oversees the Dragonborn's initiation into the Circle, those Companions who have become werewolves to join the Daedric Prince of the Hunt, Hircine, in his hunting grounds upon death. Skjor donates Aela's blood while she's in her Beast Form for the Dragonborn to drink and thus become a werewolf as well. When the Dragonborn comes to after passing out following their first transformation, Aela has brought them to Gallows Rock, a location home to the Companions' arch-enemies, the Silver Hand, a group of bandits who hunt werewolves for their own pleasure. Skjor had gone ahead inside to investigate, but by the time Aela and the Dragonborn find him, he has been tragically murdered by the Silver Hand's leader, Krev the Skinner. The only things still retrievable from his corpse being his Wolf Armor and other effects. Aela swears revenge against the Silver Hand because of this, but this inevitably leads to the death of Kodlak and theft of the pieces of Ysgramor's legendary axe Wuuthrad in the process.
