✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid track record with 406 endorsements and over 30k downloads, so plenty of players have tried it.
- Scales with your level, so he stays relevant throughout your playthrough.
- Being FCOM-balanced means he won't break your game if you run that popular overhaul.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2011, so it's ancient by modding standards and may have issues with newer setups.
- He's not romanceable, so if you're looking for a companion with a deeper relationship, this isn't it.

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since Arren is FCOM-balanced, make sure you have FCOM installed if you want the intended experience, or be prepared for potential balance issues.
- If you're using a mod manager like OBMM or Wrye Bash, just drop the mod in and activate it—no complex load order tweaks needed.
- Remember that Arren can die, so keep a soul gem or scroll handy to resurrect him after tough fights.
