Castellan Athon is a Redguard retired Legion officer who is recommended to you by Nilphas Omellian. If he dies, a Battlehorn Castellan can be purchased to replace him.
In his Battlehorn Castle Upgrades List, Nilphas will mention:
- "I will retain the services of an experienced mercenary captain"
Once you buy the Battlehorn Barracks upgrade, the accompanying note from Nilphas will provide more background:
- "At your request, I've hired Captain Athon, a retired Legion officer with impeccable credentials, to take charge of the men-at-arms at Battlehorn Castle."
From this point, the captain can be found somewhere inside the castle. He sleeps between midnight and 6am in the most ornate of the beds in the barracks area off the Great Hall, and eats for three hours from 8pm at the table in the East Wing. Outside those times, he will either be found practicing his blade skills in the sparring area of the basement, reading at the writing desk in the barracks, keeping watch over the castle in the great hall, or patrolling the castle's exterior. He can also be ordered to follow you, and will return to his normal schedule when released from duties.
Athon is equipped with a steel armor set, excluding the helmet and Knight of the True Horn Shield. In combat, he relies on a leveled sword and bow (both best for the player's level; up to Ebony), as well as silver arrows. He also carries the valuable Russet Felt Shirt of Blade Turning, some rugged pants and a pair of pigskin shoes.
Athon also knows a leveled set of knight spells, though he is unable to cast due to a bug.
DialogueEdit
When greeting you, he will say:
- "Yes, ma'am/sir?"
- Follow me.
- "Certainly."
If you speak to him again, you can ask him to wait or dismiss him:
-
- Wait for me here.
- "Of course."
- Return to your duties.
- "All right."
NotesEdit
BugsEdit
- Athon possesses the standard knight spells list containing one major Illusion spell, despite not having Illusion as a major skill due to his Marauder (Boss) class. As a result of this and the NPC skill leveling mechanism, Athon will only ever be able to cast novice Illusion spells. However, the Illusion spells in his list are of at least apprentice level, meaning he will never be able to cast any.
