Join the Companions

---

Written Tutorial


The Companions are one of the 4 factions available within the lands of Skyrim. They are more or less the equivalent of the Warrior's guild in Oblivion and obviously boasts a good selection of combat trainers.

On your first visit to Whiterun, you will be able to start and complete this quest. Odds are you witnessed npc's fighting a giant who turn out to be members of this faction and will direct you to Jorrvaskr trough a quest, the man you need to speak to is Kodlak and is usually found downstairs in his quarters.

The Companions can be found to the north up the stairs from the market in Whiterun. In case you don't find it, use your local map and look for a house named Jorrvaskr.

Complete their initation quest and this achievement will unlock.

---

Become a member of the Circle

---

Written Tutorial

During the Companions' questline, 'The Silver Hand' to be exact, you will be given the choice of joining the Circle.
Accept their gift to gain a new power along with this achievement. This new power has pros and cons, so you might want to check a wiki and reload the game if it doesn't suit you.

The Companions are located in the Jorrvaskr house in Whiterun and can be joined at any point throughout the game.

---

Complete "Glory of the Dead"

---

Written Tutorial

This is the final quest in the Companions' questline. The Companions can be found in the Jorrvaskr house in Whiterun, north of the small market in the center of town and can be joined at any point in the game.

Not much guidance needed here, although I'd like to add that you may want to pick up the weapon you used to activate the statue on your way out. Even if you don't use it, it's worth a fair bit of coin.

Join the College of Winterhold

---

Written Tutorial

The College of Winterhold is one of the 4 factions in Skyrim. They are the equivalent of the Mages' guild in Oblivion, located slightly north of Winterhold. Winterhold can be reached by using the wagon in front of any Hold's stables, the first one you should encounter is the Whiterun one.

On your way to the College, you will be stopped by an npc to complete a test before entering. To complete it and net the achievement, you'll need to cast a random spell, which may or may not be from the skillset you chose to improve in the conversation. Most spells can be bought from the mage at Dragonsreach in Whiterun. He is located to the right of the Jarl in the main hall.
If you're not a mage centered character and depending on the spell you need to cast, you might have to put some levels into Magicka... you'll find out soon enough if you can cast the required spell or not.

Needless to say that this place will be your haven for all sorts of Magic trainers and books, and mages should seek this place out as soon as possible.

Complete "Revealing the Unseen"

---

Written Tutorial

Complete the "Revealing the Unseen" quest, which is the fifth quest in the College of Winterhold quest line.

*possible spoilers* i will try to keep them to a minimum.

This dungeon contains Falmers, Chaurus' and Dwarven Automatons. Which are fairly strong so take plenty of potions with you.

Make your way through the dungeon, it may take a while(did me). Once you get to the Oculory place the focus crystal in it.
To focus the Oculory you need to equip your flames and frostbite spells. (If you dont have them you can find the 2 tomes up the little set of stairs behind the Oculory, rather handy aye?) Now Shoot the spells at the focusing lense, this should make the beams of light hit the middle of moving panels with the circular mirrors on. The frostbite spell moves the beams down, the fire spell moves them up. If you haven't been messing around with shooting spells at it, you only need to hit it with the frostbite spell 3 time and they will be in the correct place. Now move back up the stairs and push the buttons until the mirrors move into the beams of light. Do this so all 3 beams of light bounce off to the ceiling.
Talk to Paratus, then head back to the college. The rest of the quest is straight forward from there.

If your having trouble with the Dwarven Spheres i found it helped to shoot them with sparks and when they get close jump past them before they hit you, turn round and shoot them again. Repeat till they die.
The Chaurus' have a mean poison attack, so be sure to keep an eye on your health, and if you can improve your resistance to poison then do it, when facing them.
All the Dwarven Automatons appear to be resistant to frost.

Join the Thieves Guild

---

Written Tutorial

This is one of the 4 factions in Skyrim, best visited early by stealth-centered characters, since there are various trainers to your liking to be found. In order to find and join them, you will have to go to Riften, which can be reached by using any of the coaches outside any Hold's stables. (Whiterun should be the first you'll encounter.)

Upon entering the city, you'll be greeted by a shady character, asking what business you have in town. Answer with what he likes to hear (reload if he didn't like it) and he'll direct you towards Brynjolf at the market. (Not sure if this matters.)
Do his quest, I failed it, but it didn't matter, and he'll invite you to the lower parts of town, namely 'The Ragged Flagon'. Get there in one piece and you'll receive an additional quest which involves beating up a few shopkeepers. Complete it and you'll be rewarded with a spot in the guild and this achievement.

Complete "Darkness Returns"

---

Written Tutorial


This achievement can be unlocked while doing the Thieves' Guild main quest.

During this questline, there is one particular part that posed some trouble, so instead of making this a one-liner, I'll give some pointers.

At a certain point, you'll have to gain entrance to Mercer's estate, which wasn't as easy as I thought it to be. When you go to the backyard of his estate, you'll see a locked fence with a guard roaming about behind it. Wait for him to come towards the gate and you'll be able to bribe/persuade/intimidate him.
In my case, neither of the options worked, but bribing brought up an extra objective that leads to another quest with no pointer to the location of what you need to find. I decided to dump this option and killed the guard when he was close to that same fence. It took me a few hits, because you'll just hit the fence, but luckily he's a one-hit-kill, so getting one shot off will suffice.
When the bad boy is down, loot his pockets for a key and open the gate.
Above you, you'll see a raised walkway... if you properly interrogated Brynjolf about how to enter the mansion (unlike me), you'll have an extra quest pointer, showing a contraption you need to hit to lower the walkway.

Once inside, look for a suspicious bookcase. It doesn't actually look suspicious, but it is highlighted with that text. I can't really remember where it is, but knowing what to look for, you should find it in no time, unlike me who spent half an hour looking for a chain or lever to pull.

The rest is smooth sailing from here, and a couple of quests later, you'll be able to gain new powers along with this achievement.

Select a Standing Stone blessing

---

Written Tutorial

After you leave the first dungeon from the main quest with the guard, follow him. He will walk outside down a path, after a while he will stand still at three stones. You cannot miss it. Use your activate button on one of them and you will unlock the achievement.

The stones represent star signs, at those three there is a warrior, wizard and thief. They give you bonuses by leveling faster some of your skills, or have special effects. There are more of these stones in Skyrim, but these are the easiest and earliest ones you can find. You can only have one stone active at a time.

You can see the stones on the map too if you've discovered them.
Also, some of the red crosses on your map you get with the game, mark these stones, but not all.
There are even some books, if you read them, a stone will be marked on your map.

Buy a house

---

Writen Tutorial

Your first chance to buy a house will be in Whiterun. After completing the quest offered by the Jarl, located in Dragonsreach, you will be able to buy a house (Breezehome) for 5000 gold from his steward. It's the second house on your right when you enter Whiterun, but it's the cheapest one, and obviously quite erm... 'modest'.

If you want to buy a (more expensive) house in another Hold, you will need to get on good terms with its Jarl, just like in Whiterun. Do their quest and the house will be available for purchase from their steward.

Available Properties in Skyrim:

-Breezehome, Whiterun (5000 gold)
-Vlindrell Hall, Markarth (8000 gold)
-Honeyside , Riften (8000 gold)
-Hjerim, Windhelm (12000 gold)
-Proudspire Manor, Solitude (25000 gold)

Prices are without the available decorations

Acquire a Daedric Artifact

---

Written Tutorial

I got this achievement by Completing the quest Ill Met By Moonlight.

I believe it starts in the town of Falkreath, if this is wrong correct me because I forgot, but in this town there should be a graveyard with some tombstones and a few people walking around. There will be a priest there, an elf priest, giving the funeral for a 10 year old girl. The two other people by the priest are the girls mother and father.

I spoke to the father and asked him every question, he tells you about a man named Sinding who killed his daughter

The quest will update and Sinding is located in the same town in a jail, the arrow will relocate as you progress through this quest and point you in the right direction to find the building he is in.

Find Sinding and talk to him, say you will take the ring from him and give it to Hircine, who is a Daedric Lord. The quest will send you to kill a Giant White Stag, I suggest being a decent level and sneaking up on this stag so it doesnt run away forever like it did to me. Use a bow and sneak or stealthily walk up to it and attack.

Once the stag is dead, its ghost will appear and it will be Hircine, talk to him and ask if he can remove the curse from the ring, he will send you to find and kill Sinding in Bloated Mans Grotto. Once there, there should be a few hunters that have been killed, continue on and Find Sinding in Werewolf form and tell him that you will spare his life, help him kill the remaining hunters and in doing so you become his friend and upon exiting the cave, Hircine will be pleased by you telling him that you were unable to kill Sinding. Hircine will still be pleased because, instead you slaughtered all the hunters and impressed him, after a very short dialogue you will receive his blessing and the achievement is yours.

Reach Level 5

Written Tutorial

You will get this achievement pretty early in the game.

You see it on screen when you levelup, to level up, go to the magic, item, map skill screen and press up twice.
You level by leveling your skills. So make sure you use a lot of magic spells and fight with different weapons. Make sure that after each time you level you spend your skill point in your skill tree. The only way by not getting this achievement is avoiding all monsters, never use magic and don't level your skills.
Train all skills and you will get this in no time.

Some easy ways to level:

Pickpocket someone, give him money and get it back, be sure to save a lot in case you get noticed.

Smithing, smithing is pretty easy to level, buy or mine iron ore or ingots and leather strips and make iron daggers. Just wait and buy the stuff again.

There is a glitch in the beginning of the game. After you've got your loadout, you have to sneak past a bear or kill him. Just attack the guy you need to follow and sneak behind him. This way you can level your magic, fighting and sneaking skills.
