Xenia offers the following training services:
1.- Sneak - Windhelm
2.- Destruction - Whiterun
3.- Pickpocket - Solitude
4.- One handed - Riften
5.- Light Armour - Markarth
6.- Enchanting - Morthal
7.- Two handed - Dawnstar
8.- Conjuration - Falkreath
9.- Illusion - Riverwood
10.- Restoration - Rorikstead
11.- Alchemy - Dragon Bridge
12.- Archery - Winterhold
13.- Heavy armour - Ivarstead
14.- Block - Kynesgrove
15.- Alteration - Old Hroldan Inn
16.- Lockpicking - Nightgate Inn
17.- Only buys items - Retching Netch (Raven Rock)
You can find Bjorn in the inns of the five main cities (Markarth, Riften, Solitude, Whiterun and Windhelm) and at the Inn at Raven Rock. He sells all the skill books, alchemy ingredients and metal ingots available in game and also all the ingredients available in all three DLCs (Hearthfire, Dawguard and Dragonborn).
Bjorn offers the following training services:
17.- Smithing - Solitude
18.- Speech - Windhelm
Be warned that Skyrim merchants buy/sell options break if they have more than 30,000 gold coins. So, if you buy lots of things from Bjorn an he ends up having more than 30,000 gold coins, you won't be able of selling him anything (actually, you'd be able to sell them but you won't receive any gold

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,259 endorsements and over 16k downloads
- Xenia's 30k gold makes selling expensive loot a breeze
- One-stop shop for skill books and alchemy ingredients via Bjorn
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016, so may have compatibility issues with newer mods or game patches
- Adds NPCs to inns, which could conflict with mods that overhaul or add to inn interiors
- Master trainer access might make leveling too easy for some playstyles
For Skyrim players who hate traveling across the map to find trainers or merchants with enough gold. Also great for alchemists and skill book collectors. Skip if you prefer a more challenging economy or if you use mods that heavily alter inns.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this is a Skyrim Special Edition mod, make sure you're using the SSE version of the game, not the original Skyrim.
- If you use mods that change inn interiors, load this mod after them to ensure the NPCs appear correctly.
- Xenia's 30k gold means you can sell high-value items without waiting for merchants to restock, so use her for big transactions.
