Kodlak: "Would you raise your shield in his/her defense?"įarkas: "I would stand at his/her back, that the world might never overtake us." Who will speak for him/her?"įarkas: "I stand witness for the courage of the soul before us." This man/woman has endured, has challenged and has showed his/her valor. Kodlak: "Brothers and Sisters of the Circle, today we welcome a new soul into our mortal hold. "Then this judgment of this Circle is complete." Once you have done so, Kodlak will start off: Proving HonorĪt the closing of the Quest Proving Honor, when you and Farkas have recovered the fragment of Wuuthrad from Dustman's Cairn and returned to Whiterun, Vilkas will tell you to stand before the Circle for judgement.
He will then tell Vilkas: "Vilkas, take him/her out to the yard and see what he/she can do." You are now directed to follow Vilkas into the courtyard to test your arm. Vilkas, here, will be the one testing your mettle." Don't feel like you need to show off for our sake. How are you in a battle, boy/girl?" You can choose out of three ways to respond to his question: Your Dialogue Kodlak will then turn back towards you and ask: "Of course. Sometimes men and women come to us to seek their fame. Kodlak: "Sometimes the famous come to us. And last I checked, we had some empty beds in Jorrvaskr for those with a fire burning in their hearts." Vilkas: "Master, you're not truly considering accepting him/her?" A certain strength of spirit." Vilkas will then interrupt your conversation by disagreeing with him: He will remark: "Would you now? Here, let me have a look at you. But I don't know if the rest will go along quite so easily."Īpproaching Kodlak, you can express your interest in joining the Companions. Vilkas: "You have my brother and I, obviously. Vilkas: "But I still hear the call of the blood." In combat, he may yell "By Ysgramor!", "For honor!" or "Glory awaits!" Leave whispers and sneaking to the gutter rats who can't fight for themselves." That's what it means to be one of us, boy/girl." When you join the Companions, you may also ask him what it means to be a member: "It means living such that your Shield-Siblings would proudly say they fought at your side. For my mother, my father, and my grandfather. I work to bring honor to this family, and to the family that I lost. I was serving as bodyguard for some weak-necked lord out there. My predecessor, Askar, found me in Hammerfell. Eventually, my body caught up to my spirit. I was just a boy, but I had the fire of a man in my heart. I traveled the length and breadth of this land, learning all I could of the sword and the axe. I try to hold us to the right path." If you also ask why he joined the Companions, he will elaborate: "Like most of our band, I found this family after losing my own. The difference between a noble band of warriors and a ragged bunch of assassins is as thin as a blade's edge. The sort of thing some of us spend our lives pondering. I prefer more personal confrontations, myself." Asking who are the Companions, he will reply: "Your question carries more weight than you may know, newcomer. If you choose to ask him where he stands on the war, he will tell you: "Politics are something best avoided. If you complete the Companions questline by the time you enter Sovngarde during the main quest, Kodlak can be found among the other lost spirits, trapped in Alduin's mist. Kodlak does not wish for this, and instead wants his soul to go to Sovngarde. Although Kodlak is a member of the Circle, he wishes to be rid of his lycanthropy, as upon death, a werewolf's soul goes to the Daedric Lord Hircine's Hunting Grounds. He is clad in a set of wolf armor, gauntlets, and boots. Kodlak can usually be found in the living quarters of Jorrvaskr. Legends of the Companions speak of Kodlak's many great feats, such as Kodlak and another Companion fighting off one hundred and one Orc berserkers.įor more information, see the lore article. As Harbinger, he maintains that family and honor are the most important things to the Companions, and that they should deal with problems head-on, finding honor in life through glory in battle. The Companions quickly became his new family. His predecessor, the Harbinger Askar, found him working as a bodyguard in Hammerfell, and recruited him. He lost his family at a young age, when he was little more than a boy. He is also something of a philosopher, prone to pondering on the meaning of honor and nobility. He avoids politics, and maintains the Companions' long-standing tradition of abstaining from political conflicts.
Kodlak Whitemane is a Nord warrior and a well-respected Harbinger of the Companions.
