If you've read our The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim review, you already know that it is easy to lose yourself in the excitement of fighting dragons or the tranquility of Tamriel's beauty while adventuring throughout the land of Skyrim. After a while, however, it is the loneliness that always sets in. Sure, I just slayed that dragon single-handedly, but I want more hands. I want to do it double-handedly, at least. What if I see two bears making love in the forest? Am I supposed to laugh about it with myself? It could potentially be one of Skyrim's best videos, afterall. No, I need a companion, and so do you. Seeing as how there's no Skyrim mod for friendship, here are Skyrim's best companions to bring along and keep you company on your adventures.
Skyrim's Best Companions
Skyrim may be the most action-packed province of Tamriel, what with dragons raining death from the skies, but that doesn't mean even the mightiest of Nords are resilient to loneliness. Not every potential partner is worth your time, so look through Skyrim's best companions and pick a loyal friend.

J'Zargo - Skyrim Companions

| 1 | J'zargo |
Where To Find: The College of Winterhold, Must Complete "J'zargo's Experiment"
Specialization: Destruction
J'zargo agrees to becoming your companion once you light yourself on fire and let him know how much it hurts. Why would you agree to such a thing? Because he's %^*&ing J'zargo.
J'zargo is a Khajiit mage with a high Destructive skill. During battle he tends to dual-cast Destructive spells until his magic runs out and can be equipped with heavy armor. How can a mage wear heavy armor you ask?
He's %^*&ing J'zargo, that's how.
