Oblivion:Mage Apprentice
The UESPWiki – Your source for The Elder Scrolls since 1995
Mage Apprentices are NPCs found in the Arcane University of the Imperial City. Interactions with Apprentices are limited until the conclusion of the Mages Guild questline, Confront the King, at which point they become available as followers. All Mage Apprentices possess 3 Destruction spells, 2 Conjuration spells, 1 Restoration spell and 1 Illusion spell. In addition, Mage Apprentices wear a Robe of the Apprentice and wield a leveled magic dagger. You may only have one Mage Apprentice following you at any given time. Mage Apprentices do not offer any services.

[edit] Types of Follower
Although there are technically ten different Mage Apprentices in the construction set, the statistics of each are entirely dependent on their race. An Apprentice will be either a Breton or an Imperial, and each race is given their own set of stats. The differences between the two races are Attribute values and base Health and Magicka. All Breton Apprentices are female; similarly, all Imperial Apprentices are male.

The Breton Apprentices are more "magically capable" than their Imperial counterparts, as they have higher Magicka, as well as higher Intelligence and Willpower values. On the other hand, their health is 10 points lower.

Imperial Apprentices are inferior to their Breton colleagues in magical statistics (they have less magicka and lesser values in Intelligence and Willpower). However, their health is 10 points higher at all levels.
[edit] Commands
Once you have become Arch Mage of the Mages Guild, a Mage Apprentice may be given one of the following three commands:
- "Follow me.": The Mage Apprentice will follow you, attack what is hostile towards you, and engage in random conversation with other NPCs (if given the opportunity).
- "Wait here.": The Mage Apprentice will remain in the specified spot. The apprentice will not wander or engage in conversation with others, but will move to attack hostile creatures or NPCs that come within range.
- "Return to your studies.": The Mage Apprentice will return to the Arcane University.
