How to Recruit the Battlehorn Castellan

Add to Watchlist

The Battlehorn Castellan is a recruitable companion in The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion Remastered. Read on to learn more about the Battlehorn Castellan and how to recruit them as a companion.

How to Recruit Battlehorn Castellan

Buy the Battlehorn Captain Upgrade after Castellan Athon Dies

The Battlehorn Captain will only become available to recruit if Castellan Athon is dead. If you're on a save where Athon is dead, simply head back over to Nilphas Omellian at the Merchants Inn (at the Imperial City Market District) and purchase the Battlehorn Captain upgrade from him.

Note: Much like all sold items, the price of the Battlehorn Captain upgrade will vary depending on your Mercantile skill level.

The Battlehorn Castellan will replace Castellan Athon if the latter dies in your save. Similar to Athon, the generic Battlehorn Castellan can be found wandering the Great Hall of Battlehorn Castle or sleeping where Castellan Athon used to bunk in the Battlehorn Barracks.

If the Battlehorn Castellan dies, you'll have to re-purchase the Battlehorn Captain upgrade in order to respawn and re-recruit them to your party.
