The barracks by the gate in Whiterun

Guard Barracks[edit]

Guard Barracks interior

The barracks consists of two cramped rooms, a dining room often used by a single guard, and a sleeping area with four owned beds. The dining room contains two chairs by a table, a minor loot chest, a food barrel, and four food sacks. The small table seats two and has some food on display, two baked potatoes, a salmon steak, a sweet roll, and a bottle of wine. A set of shelves contains a chunk of raw beef, the loaves of bread, and a goat cheese wedge, some sliced goat cheese, and sliced eidar cheese.

The sleeping area contains four beds squeezed head-to-toe between the north and south walls with an end table with clutter between them. The end table to the east has a bottle of ale and two honey nut treats on top and a pair of boots on the floor below. A copy of Beggar Prince is carelessly thrown on the floor in the northeastern corner. The shelves along the northern wall hold two bottles of wine, two bottles of ale, and a head of cabbage. The cupboard under the shelves holds clutter. Under the cupboard sits a pair of boots and, placed on a stool, a hat.

Notes[edit]

  • There is a Danger Danger shadowmark around the right corner from the door and double marked low down on the wall and a wooden support.
  • If the Stormcloaks takes over Whiterun during Battle for Whiterun, nobody will live in the barracks and all items will be free to take.
  • There are four food barrels on the roof of the barracks.
