Eridor

Eridor is a Bosmer warrior who is boarding at The Two Sisters Lodge in Skingrad. He and his colleagues Carsten, Shamar and Vontus Idolus have come to town to investigate rumors that Skingrad has been infiltrated by vampires. Eridor is the leader of the hunters, and the one you must approach in order to gain any information about them. He only appears at the start of the Information at a Price quest.

He sleeps upstairs in the Lodge from 11pm until 6am and then walks to his assigned guard point in front of the Great Chapel of Julianos. At 1pm he returns to the Lodge to eat lunch until 4pm and then goes back to patrolling until it's time to head to bed again. This behavior changes if the vampire hunters are tipped off about Bloodcrust Cavern. At midnight on the next day, Eridor and the others will head there and attack the inhabitants.

The residents of Skingrad have evidently been worried by the sudden appearance of four vampire hunters in town. The news even made it to Castle Skingrad, where Count Hassildor naturally is very concerned; ”There are at least three of them. I know only one by name: a wood elf called Eridor. He’s rather good, from what I understand.” The first time you meet Eridor he begins a prepared speech: "Oh, no. Not another one. Ahem. Citizen of... Skingrad. Please be advised that I am here on official business, and wish no harm... Oh, forget it. Let me guess: you're worried about what my men and I are doing here in town, right?" An affirmative response leads to an attempt to reassure you: "You have my assurance that my men and I will do everything in our power to keep the people of... Skingrad safe. We're here to help. If you have seen anything unusual, particularly anything implying the presence of the undead here in town, please report it at once." If you dig a little deeper, he will admit their true purpose of being in Skingrad: ”I am a vampire hunter. I came here with a few others to get rid of the vampires in Skingrad. Oh. That’s right. We’ve heard all about it. Now, we just need to find them...”

He is the only one of the team not to dress in lower-class clothing. Instead, Eridor owns a middle-class outfit of light brown linen trousers, a brown shirt and pigskin shoes. He also wears leather greaves, gauntlets and boots, which he unequips when he's sleeping. His weapon of choice is a steel battle axe, and he carries a small amount of gold.
