Short Description
Followers give the player a perk unique to that particular follower. The perk lasts as long as the player has that follower with them(Includes making them wait somewhere). General description of perks can be found in details.
Welcome everyone! You know what sucks? Skyrim followers. Sure, sure; you've all got your "Ultimate" overhauls for them and they are pretty good. But still, there isn't much incentive for the Dragonborn to use any follower; why? They are simply under-powered in most cases thus making them more of an annoyance than an asset.
No more my friends! This mod adds perks to the player, based upon which follower they currently have which dissipate when you dismiss them or they die! Just like in Fallout New Vegas. All of the followers in Skyrim, Dawnguard, Hearthfire and Dragonborn have been covered, apart from a few special exceptions. Separate .esps are available to those without all DLCs, but I've also merged those into a "Legendary Edition" which of course requires all DLCs.
This mod contains no scripts, it should be relatively safe to remove if you are not a thrilled with it as I am. I do not suggest removing any mod however, unless you have a save prior to it's install. So please people, back up your saves.
If you remove the mod, enter these commands in the console first.
stopquest bulwarkperkregulator
stopquest bulwarkDLC1perkregulator (If you have Dawnguard plugin)
stopquest bulwarkDLC2perkregulator (If you have Hearthfires plugin)
stopquest bulwarkDLC3perkregulator (If you have Dragonborn plugin)
This mod is the first of it's kind and is a Nexus exclusive, NO re-uploads or asset use anywhere without my permission.
I will not include the magnitudes, only what the effect does. Animals are not effected as they use a different system.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 443 endorsements and nearly 5,000 downloads.
- Works with all followers including DLC ones, so no gaps in coverage.
- Adds meaningful choice to which follower you bring along.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2014, so may have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions or mods.
- Requires you to switch followers to change perks, which might be tedious if you have a favorite.
For Skyrim players who enjoy role-playing and want a reason to rotate their followers. If you're a completionist who likes collecting perks, this adds a new layer to companion management. Skip if you prefer a single loyal companion and don't care about perk variety.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to check if the mod is compatible with your Skyrim version (Oldrim vs Special Edition) before installing.
- If you use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2, install it through that for easy removal.
- Try different followers to see what perks they grant—it's a fun way to explore the mod's content.
