"In madness, I dance like flames upon the wind.
In chaos, I create, where the shadows begin.
In silence, I sing like whispers in the dark,
In ruin, I bloom like a spark from the arc."
In chaos, I create, where the shadows begin.
In silence, I sing like whispers in the dark,
In ruin, I bloom like a spark from the arc."
As a child, Jobargo spent his days playing with puppets crafted by his parents, traders in a Khajiit caravan.
He viewed each puppet as part of an intricate performance, crafting stories where every figure had a unique role.
He also had a passion for archery, seeing each shot as a precise and artistic expression of skill.
One night, a fire consumed the caravan, killing his parents and leaving Jobargo with scars on the right side of his face from his attempt to save them.
Grief-stricken and determined to bring them back, Jobargo turned to necromancy, learning to manipulate the dead much like the puppets of his youth.
Now, his conjuration magic is his art, and Skyrim has become his stage.
Jobargo's theme song has no lyrics, yet it speaks volumes about his character.
Only by listening can you truly grasp his personality—this song says it all.
Through its haunting melody.
Fully Voiced (Hundreds of Lines):
Jobargo is packed with unique dialogue, offering intelligent insights, deep philosophies on necromancy, and a bit of humor.
His lines reflect his sharp mind and artistic approach to life and death.
Jobargo reacts to enemies based on their race or faction, making for immersive, tailored interactions during combat.
He also has custom dialogue for various locations around Skyrim, and Quests! Giving him depth and awareness of the world.
Unique Combat Style:
Bound Bow: Jobargo is fiercely loyal to his Bound Bow and will refuse to use any other weapon, even if given one. His archery is part of his artistic expression.
The Brush (Custom Staff): Jobargo wields a custom staff, his "Brush," which shoots a slow but powerful purple projectile. It represents his creative, deadly precision in battle.
Conjuration Focus: He exclusively uses Conjuration magic, Jobargo summons a Puppet Skeleton wielding a Bound Sword to assist him in combat, or when his health is low: Under 50% HP.
Bleedout State: He summons a massive Puppet Skeleton (Custom Voiced) with a Bound Battleaxe to guard him until he recovers.
No Healing Abilities: Jobargo has no access to healing magic, relying on his skeleton summons for protection in combat.
A new player spell:
Conjure Puppet Skeleton: Summons a Puppet Skeleton for X seconds wherever the caster is pointing.
Unlike Jobargo's flawless control, if struck too many times, the puppet will break free from your hold and turn against you.
Conjuration Trainer:
As a master conjurer, Jobargo can train the Dragonborn in conjuration using the vanilla training system.
Custom Player Home:
Jobargo’s Stage: Located at Hunter’s Rest, the player can access Jobargo’s custom reworked home: Jobargo’s Stage, through a trapdoor. It doubles as a fully functional player house.
Guarded by Necromancers: The area around Jobargo’s home is protected by his loyal students, ensuring that he is not easily disturbed.
Custom Framework:
Jobargo’s mod uses a custom framework, which means using other companion frameworks may cause conflicts. He is built to operate independently of other companion systems to maintain his unique interactions and behavior.
Jobargo can be found at Hunter's Rest, a once peaceful camp now turned into his personal domain. He and his necromancer students have conquered the location, turning it into a base of operations. The hunters who originally lived there have been killed, and their corpses now lie scattered around the camp, ready to be revived by Jobargo’s followers to defend against any intruders.
To access Jobargo, enter the trapdoor at Hunter’s Rest that leads to his underground lair, known as Jobargo’s Stage. This area is guarded by his necromancer apprentices, who ensure the safety of their master. The underground lair doubles as a custom player home, where Jobargo resides, surrounded by his artful displays of necromancy.

Hi, I'm XPRim (or XPR), but you can also call me Sean :)
I’ve always wanted to create a custom companion, but I was initially intimidated by the Creation Kit.
Eventually, I found the courage to dive in, and I'm still learning every day.
Jobargo is a fusion of various elements from my life. I have a deep appreciation for art; I love to paint, play, sing, and dance, and I wanted to express these passions through a character.
Why Khajiit? They were the first race I chose when I played Skyrim back in 2011.
As for necromancer? It’s my favorite playstyle in the game.
Jobargo embodies many features I enjoy and includes numerous references to things I love.
Most of his lines are original and personally written by me, with many nodding to other games and series.
And why the Bound Bow? As a Khajiit player back in 2011, I embraced the legendary stealth archer concept, and the Bound Bow perfectly complements his conjuration theme.
I hope you enjoy Jobargo—he’s definitely not your typical character!
Q: Is he lore friendly?
A: Yes! (I see no reason why not, and I want to keep it that way.)
Q: How many voice lines does Jobargo have?
A: Jobargo has hundreds of unique voice lines, covering everything from combat, locations, interactions, quests and more.
More lines are coming soon! (It’s hard to write lines for this Khajiit—if you know him, you’ll understand why.)
Q: What kind of combat style does Jobargo use?
A: Jobargo wields a Bound Bow and a custom-designed brush (staff) that shoots slow but powerful purple projectiles. He is a conjuration master and relies on necromantic summons, including skeletons, to aid him in battle. He does not use any other magic schools or traditional weapons.
Q: Is Jobargo marriable?
A: No, Jobargo is not marriable. Trust me, he's not the right person for that. His heart is already taken... by his art and necromancy.
Q: Can Jobargo wear other armor or use other weapons?
A: Jobargo is loyal to his custom armor and Bound Bow. Even if you give him a new sword or armor, he will not use them, preferring to stick with his unique gear and style.
Q: Can Jobargo use healing spells?
A: No, Jobargo does not have access to healing magic. Instead, he balances this by summoning puppet skeletons to fight alongside him when his health drops below certain thresholds.

Special Thanks:
Joseph Russell (The creator of Lucien): For his fantastic guide on creating follower framework, thank you.
SergeantDoggo's: A huge thanks for being with me from the very first step of Jobargo's creation.
I first met SergeantDoggo on Lucien's Discord server when I was asking for help to better understand the Creation Kit.
He was the only one who answered and has been helping me ever since.
Without his guidance, Jobargo would likely have taken another year to complete.
I thank and appreciate you for everything.
Also, be sure to check out SergeantDoggo’s follower, Deimos—he and Jobargo will soon have interactions together!
Bug Reports: If you come across any issues, please detail the problem and how it occurred, including any error messages if possible. This helps me track down the cause and provide a fix in future updates.
