How to adopt a child in Skyrim?

To adopt a child in the Skyrim game, first go to the capital of any hold where you have a house, if you don’t have one, then be sure to build it. The house should have an alchemical laboratory - a mandatory attribute.

Before dealing with this issue closely, make sure that you have a children's room, for which you will have to move the alchemy laboratory, or even get rid of it altogether.

When you make sure that both the room and the second note from the courier are already there, you can go to the Noble Orphanage, which is located in the city of Riften.

Arriving at the shelter, ask Constance Michel about the conditions for adopting children, you will be asked about your occupation - try to impress your interlocutor. You can, for example, say that you are a Dragonborn or an Archmage. Constance will report that the child will be delivered to your home.

True, the child will not move in with you if you do not make sure that you have a crib or a special chest for his things.

You will be given the opportunity to chat with the children in order to choose which one of them you want to take for yourself. Any child can be asked to tell about himself, and also ask if he wants you to adopt him or adopt him.

In principle, it is not necessary to take children from the orphanage - you can also adopt single children on the streets of Whiterun, Windhelm and a couple more locations.

Preparing for adoption

Go to the capital of any hold where you have a house - or build a house with an alchemy lab.
You will meet a courier who will give you two notes; the first one explains how to allocate a room in the house for the child, and the second one suggests that you apply to the shelter with an application for adoption.

Before adoption, you need to get a child; to do this, you will have to move the alchemy laboratory (Editor's note: in some sources - get rid of it; there are sources that add a table to the alchemy laboratory for enchanting items).

ATTENTION:
1. Make sure your weapons are stored away from the children's room - there is a bug that permanently deletes all weapons and armor stored in close proximity to it. We recommend moving all valuables away before creating a nursery.
2. If you purchase furniture for the nursery before the house is ready, then chests of drawers for things may disappear along with their contents.

When you already have both the children's room and the second note from the courier - go to the Noble Orphanage in Riften.
At the shelter, ask Constance Michel about the terms of adoption. When asked about your occupation, choose an answer that will impress her: say that you are a Dragonborn or an Archmage. She will say that the baby will be delivered to your house.

ATTENTION:
1. If you do not have your own home or children's room, you will have to go home - as long as you do not fulfill the requirement to acquire them (see the video in our publication of September 04 Hearthfire: first steps).

2. The child will not move into your house if you do not have a crib and chest of drawers or a special chest for his things.

You can adopt three children (ed. note: some sources claim that there are two).
Constance will give you the opportunity to talk to the children to determine which one you want to adopt. You can ask the child to tell a little about himself and ask if he wants to become your son or daughter. Most of the time, the kids respond with something like, "I'll just pack up and go home! Thank you, thank you!"

ATTENTION: You can adopt not only children from the orphanage, there are also lonely children on the streets of Whiterun, Windhelm and in some other locations. One of them who is not an orphan can only be adopted after the death of his parents.

Why are they lonely?

The sailor father died of an illness.
Evil relatives kicked out of the house.
Parents served in the Legion, died during the hostilities.

After adoption, you will communicate with the child.
Children can be given small assignments around the house, give gifts, play with them.
Children's clothes are multi-colored: red, yellow, green, gray and blue; boys wear tunics, girls wear dresses.
You can give a girl a doll and play with the child.
You can play war with a boy, fighting with a wooden sword; he can carry it with him all the time.
One day the child will bring some animal from the street and ask if it is possible to leave it at home. If you let him, he will gladly have a pet.
Children can play hide and seek and tag.

Some children, if they catch Dovakin during the commission of a crime, may hire thugs or the Dark Brotherhood, although only adults can do this;

• There is an interesting moment in the game when children and their parents belong to different races. For example, Fiotra is a Nord, and her parents Enmon and Mina are Bretons. Or Minnetia Vinnia is a Nord when her entire family is Imperial.
• Dawnguard: Any child after adoption and a vampire raid on the estate can become a vampire. Doesn't kill, doesn't attack. But is it a bug?

Heartfire. How to adopt a child in Skyrim (guide)

In September 2012, Hearthfire, the second official plug-in for Skyrim, was released. The addition expanded the social capabilities of the hero. For example, it became possible to build your own house, adopt children and create your own orphanage.

This post is all about the children of Skyrim and their adoption.

First, a little information about children in general, then in detail about each child who can be adopted, and the bugs noticed in connection with this.

In the game Skyrim, you can find children only of human races: Bretons, Nords, Imperials and Redguards. You won't find Altmer, Bosmer, Dunmer, Orc, Argonian, or Khajiit children anywhere.

Children have neither spells nor any abilities. But they are absolutely invulnerable and never participate in battles, running away at the first sounds of battle. Yes, in Skyrim you can talk and interact with children through quests and various games (for example, play tag or hide and seek), but it is impossible to kill. And yet there is no way to commit pickpocketing, although you can see, sneaking up, what things the child has with him. This is done so that the developers cannot be accused of creating a "simulation of killing children." For the same reason, mods that make it possible to kill children are not accepted on the Steam Workshop. However, there is a "death scream" sound in the game that the game plays if a child is killed using a mod. And no matter how the “fans of realism” ask, the developers will never introduce the killing of children, if only because there are countries where legal showdowns are a sport that brings a lot of fines to those game developers who follow their clients’ lead.

Also, the game does not provide for the ability to create a child character, although of course with the help of console commands or mods this is feasible.

2. WHO CAN BE ADOPTED IN THE GAME

You can go to the "Noble Orphanage" in Riften, and contact Constance Michel at the orphanage. The latter, if anyone does not remember, as a result of completing the Innocence Lost quest - to help orphans get rid of the despot-educator - becomes the "manager" of the orphanage. If the quest has not yet been completed, or you have decided to win back the “good” Dovakin and abandoned the dark brotherly line, then you will not be able to adopt children from the orphanage, since the mischievous old woman Grelod Kind does not even want to discuss the issue of adoption.

In addition to the children who were previously in the orphanage, after installing the Hearthfire add-on, children who were orphaned during the passage of the game (i.e., whose parents were killed) are placed there, but only after the death of Grelod. From where and can be adopted/adopted by the player character.

Aventus Aretino cannot be adopted as he will never return to the orphanage.

The add-on also introduces individual orphans, whom you can meet in different cities and villages.

Below I will list all the children, both from the shelter and the vagrants and hard workers that you can adopt, as well as known bugs and how to fix them.

- Alisan, Redguard, Dawnstar.

Alysan is the only child that can be found in Dawnstar. His father was a sailor, and on his last voyage to Skyrim he took him with him. On the way, the father fell ill, and the captain ordered to land him ashore with his son. A few days later, his father died, and Alisan was left alone in a cold land. He earns his living by delivering food to miners from the Mercury and Iron mines. You can meet him at work cleaning baskets, while working in the garden for the Peak of the Wind Tavern, or in the city when he runs past you.

Advice against bugs: do not settle Alysan in the Warm Winds house in Whiterun. Otherwise, Lydia, who is your Whiterun housecarl, will loop Alysan with her auto-actions, which will endlessly enter and exit through the front doors. This can be fixed by contacting the boy and telling him to take care of him, or by eliminating Lydia, but it's better not to settle him in Whiterun at all.

- Blaise, Breton, Cattle's farm near Solitude.

Blaze's parents served in the Imperial military and were killed in an ambush by the Stormcloaks. Kattla, the owner of a farm near Solitude, said she would feed him if he was useful to her, so the boy takes care of horses and runs errands. He sleeps outside in a pile of hay in a stable and says he is “tired of sleeping outside next to horses. I wish I had a real home, real parents.” After finding out these details, you can adopt him, and the child will run on his own to the house you specified with a nursery and a chest.

Once in your house, Blaze first of all runs to look at the armor.

- François Beaufort, Imperial, "Noble Orphanage" in Riften.

His parents left him at the orphanage about a year ago, and the boy believes that they will return and take him away, as promised. However, apparently, he was simply abandoned. After Grelod the Good is killed, he, along with other orphans, will rejoice and triumph. Like many children of Skyrim, the boy has a set of food and toys and a small amount of gold with him. His daily routine is no different from all children, and he can always be found inside the shelter.

- Samuel, Imperial, "Noble Orphanage" in Riften.

Nothing is known about his history. After Grelod the Good is killed, he, along with other orphans, will rejoice and triumph.

No bugs were noticed during adoption.

- Hroar, Nord, "Noble Orphanage" in Riften.

Nothing is known about his parents. He prides himself on the fact that his name is like a lion's roar. He is unhappy that Grelod the Good is preventing his adoption, although he says that he would be the "best son" in a new family. He approves of the plans of Aventus Aretino, and when Grelod the Good is killed, he triumphs along with the other orphans of the orphanage.

No bugs were noticed during adoption.

- Lucia, Imperial, Whiterun.

Lucia can be found after installing the DLC in Whiterun, most often near the Temple of Kynareth, under the Goldenleaf tree, where she sits on one of the benches.

You can find her from 8.00 to 20.00 near Zlatolista, from 20.00 to 00 in the Prancing Mare tavern, at midnight she goes to the backyard of the hotel and sleeps on the ground until 8.00.

She has a Beggar's Quest associated with her, meaning you can give her a gold coin and get a Gift of Mercy.

No bugs were noticed.

A girl wanders the streets of Windhelm selling flowers in flower baskets. She is an orphan, her mother died when she was very young, and her father disappeared in the civil war between the Stormcloaks and the Imperial Legion. From 8 am to 5 pm, she will sell flowers at the back gate of Windhelm. After 5:00 p.m., she can usually be found sitting at the New Gnisis Club. At 8:00 pm, she heads to the room at the back of the Niraniya House and sleeps until 8:00 am.

With Sophie, as with all Windhelm, there are many bugs connected.

If you do not buy from her hands all the items that she sells before adoption, you will not be able to give her gifts and change clothes later, as all her flower baskets will remain in the inventory.

If all the other children, after the adoption dialogue, run on their own to your house, which has a children's room, then Sophie will remain standing even if you approach her many times. However, she will be considered adopted, and you will not be able to take another child instead.

If you adopted Sophie before the capture of Windhelm for the Imperials, then after the capture, she may disappear from your home. In this case, you need to select the option "let's move to another house" in a conversation with another child or spouse. After the move, Sophie should appear in a new place.

If you have lost Sophie, then you have the opportunity to call her through the console. To do this, type prid xx004031 (where xx is the sequence number in which you installed the Hearthfire DLC), then moveto player to move it to the estate.

Nothing is known about her parents. At the orphanage, when you first meet, she tells you in detail about a boy named Aventus Aretino, who ran away from the orphanage. After the murder of Grelod the Good, she rejoices along with other children, and says to the hero: “By killing one person, you immediately solved so many problems for others. It’s very interesting what awaits you ahead”, as if hinting at the “dark brotherly” future of the hero.

Unfortunately, the skins of children are very monotonous, and it is impossible to find any individuality in them, except that the Bretons and Imperials are brunettes, and the Nord girls are blondes. Even Retgard Alisan is a copy of any Imperial boy.

3. CONDITIONS FOR ADOPTION

Once Hearthfire is installed, a messenger may send you an adoption letter.

To adopt a child, you must, firstly, have your own house, and, secondly, this house must have a children's room. If this is a house you built, then you cannot move the child into it until a chest appears in the nursery in which the child will store his things.

The easiest way, in my opinion, is to create a nursery in your house in Solitude: after contacting the Jarl's assistant, the door to the new room simply appears on the third floor next to your bedroom. In most other houses, you are offered to replace the alchemy laboratory with a nursery.

It is not necessary to be married.

If you decide to adopt a child from an orphanage, then you need to contact Constance Michel. She will be delighted and will answer: “Yes, of course! What a wonderful surprise!” If you ask her what needs to be done for this, she will ask the name and occupation of the character. Interestingly, if you call yourself an assassin or a thief, then she will be outraged by "such jokes", and if you are an adventurer or a mercenary, then she will only say "Hmm ...". Obviously, the title of Archmage of Winterhold, Harbinger of the Companions or Dragonborn will inspire more confidence in you.

If you have houses equipped with a children's room, then a list of these houses will appear during the conversation. The same option will appear on the first adoption dialogue with any orphan in Skyrim. After you select one of the houses, there will be no choice, and the second child will automatically be sent there. However, later you can move your family to any house with an equipped children's room.

After that, Constance Michele will congratulate you and send you to choose a child: “Go meet the children and choose the one you would like to adopt. After you make a decision, I will pack their things and make sure they are in your house.”

However, if you do not have suitable housing, she will say: “. Let's be objective. You are an adventurer. This is not the safest and most reliable profession. I need to be sure that the child will grow up in a safe and secure home. Show me that you can take care of a child. Buy a house. Furnish it with furniture. Then come back and we'll talk."

After her consent, you can talk to the orphans living in the orphanage and ask them to tell about themselves, or offer them adoption. If you don't have your own home, then the adoption dialog for foster children won't even appear. If you talk to an orphan from the street, then the dialogue will take the form: "I have a house, but there is no room for you" - "Oh, okay ... Thanks anyway, I'll think about it."

4. COMMUNICATION WITH ADOPTED CHILDREN

Present. When the child settles in your house, you will have the opportunity to give him gifts and play with him. You can give him "boy/girl clothes" and then he will change into it. You can give him sweets like honey, sweet roll or cakes. Girls can be given a doll, boys - a wooden sword.

Magic. If you use magic next to a child, he will ask you to make him invisible, but since there is no way in the game to impose invisibility on another character, you cannot do this, and the child will be upset.

Games. In the dialogue with the child, the options “let's play” appear (then you can play hide and seek or tag) and “go play outside”. If it is dark outside, then the child, although he will go out through the front door, will not appear on the street, and may disappear until the morning. In Solitude, he never joins children running down the street to play tag or hide and seek with them.

You can ask the child to "get busy".

Pets. Foster children can bring into your home and keep as pets different creatures. It can be rabbits, foxes, mud crabs, skeevers and even frost spiders. If you want to kill a pet, the child will try to stop you and say “Leave me / him alone!”, And if you kill him, he will be offended and say “I will not talk to you anymore!”.

When you sleep in your house, where there is a nursery and adopted children live, then in the morning instead of the blessing "good rest", you get two new ones:

Embrace of Love: Your skills grow 15% faster for 8 hours (similar to Lover's Stone, but with a time limit).

Mother's Love: Healing spells and potions restore 25% more health for 8 hours.

6. ACHIEVEMENTS

When you adopt your first child, you get the achievement:

Children are the young inhabitants of Skyrim, who can be found in various places. The following races are present in Skyrim: Bretons, Nords, Imperials, and Redguards.

• Height: 0.8000
• Weight: 1.0000
• No spells or abilities
• Absolutely invulnerable

If you do not use custom mods and console commands, then children are not playable (it is impossible to create a child character).

Just like in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas, in Skyrim you can talk and interact with children using quests, dialogues and various games (tag, hide-n-seek), but it is impossible to kill or harm them in any way. They also cannot perform certain other actions, such as pickpocketing and feeding. This is done to prevent any controversy about "Killing Children". If children could be killed in the game, Bethesda would be accused of creating a simulation of killing children. On the other hand, Bethesda's inability to kill children can be accused of "destroying realism and immersion".

For this reason, there were no children in either Morrowind or Oblivion (although the idea was in the air). But, in the end, they were included in Fallout and Skyrim, but they are invincible and unkillable.

For the same reason, mods that make it possible to kill children are not accepted on the Steam Workshop.

And finally, children never participate in battles and run away at the first sounds of battle.

The starting skills of children depend on their race.

List of children and their locations

There are a total of 38 kids in Skyrim (3 Bretons, 3 Imperials, 3 Redguards, and 29 Nords). The Hearthfire expansion adds 4 more children (one for each of the 4 races mentioned).

If you have the Hearthfire plugin installed, then you can adopt a child from the Noble Orphanage in Riften, or a homeless orphan orphan, for example, such as Lucia from Whiterun. You do not need to be married to adopt. You can adopt one or two children, but children can only be adopted if you have a cot in the house and a container in which the child can store his things.

• House of warm winds
• Hjerim(orig. Add Child Room (redesign near secret room, with minor storage loss).)
• honey cake(orig. Turn Enchanting Lab into Child Room.)
• Manor "High Spire"(orig. Add Child Room (entirely new room, minimal disruption).)
• Vlindrel Hall(orig. Turn Alchemy Lab into Child Room.)

Houses built by the player HF
All three houses built by the player have child-related upgrades. After building the main hall, you must add 1-2 single beds (depending on how many children you want to adopt) and a wardrobe between them. Additionally, it is not necessary to build bedrooms in the west wing of the house; however, if you build them, you will also need to build a baby bed(s) and a baby chest(s) in order for the kids to live in that room.

Once Hearthfire is installed, a messenger may send you an adoption letter. If you decide to adopt a child from an orphanage, then ask Constance Michel if you could adopt a child. She will be delighted and will answer: "Yes, of course! What a wonderful surprise!" Ask her what needs to be done, and she will ask for your name and occupation. You may have options:

After that, she will ask where the child will live.

If you have suitable houses equipped with a children's room, a list of houses suitable for the child will appear. Choose one and she will congratulate you: "Very good. That's all you need. Congratulations! I think you'll be a great parent. Go meet the kids and choose who you'd like to adopt. Once you've made your decision, I'll pack their things and I'll make sure they're in your house." "Come on, talk to the kids! I'm sure they want to get to know you."

However, if you do not have suitable housing with furniture for the child, she will tell you: ". Let's be objective. You are an adventurer. This is not the safest and most reliable profession. I must be sure that the child will grow up in a safe and secure home. Show me that you can take care of the child. Buy a house. Furnish it furniture. After that, come back and we'll talk." If you linger, or approach her again, he will tell you: "I'm sorry, but as long as you don't have your own home with a baby room, I can't let you adopt anyone."

After that, you can talk to the orphans living in the orphanage and ask them to tell about themselves, or offer them adoption. A unique conversation for each child can be found on their respective pages.

When talking with homeless orphans that you meet in cities and towns, you have the opportunity to learn about them through dialogue, and then talk to them about adoption.

The adoption dialogue for orphanages and homeless orphans is generally the same, the only difference being that you cannot speak with orphanage children about adoption if you do not have a suitable home.

Player: "I can adopt you if you want."
Child: "Really? You. Do you have a place where I could live?"

• If you do not have suitable housing:

Player: I have a house, but no room for you."
Child: "-. Oh, okay. Thanks anyway, I'll think about it."
or
Child: "Oh, okay. Thanks, but I need to think."

• If you have suitable accommodation:

Player A: Yes, I have a house in.
Child: "Oh, great! You. Are you sure? Do you really mind?"

If you don't have a home, the conversation ends. If you have a house, then you can name its location or refuse the idea of ​​adoption. If you refuse adoption, their dialogue will be the same as when you do not have a home. After you name the location of the house in which you are going to settle the adopted child, they will answer:

Girls: "Hooray! Thank you mom! I promise you I'll be the best daughter! I have to pack my things and say goodbye to everyone. Meet me at home. Thank you! Thank you very much!"
or
boys: "Really really? Wow, thanks dad/mom! I promise I'll be good! Let me pack up and say goodbye to everyone. Meet me at home. Thank you! Once again!"

If you linger, you can hear the child exclaim: "Can not wait!" If you talk to Constance after adopting a child, she will tell you: "Congratulations! I hope you have a wonderful life ahead of you."

If you want to adopt another child, you will not be able to choose the house in which you will live with him; one more adopted child will be settled in the house where the children already live.

There is one adoption achievement available:

• - Proud Parent

I bought a house in riftan, set up an alchemy lab, but I can't exchange it for a nursery? What to do? I have a version of Hearthfire. And I don't get a letter!

In Riften, the alchemy lab cannot be replaced, the children's room is to the left - it is independent of the alchemy lab.

I still can’t adopt, I came to the shelter and there my aunt runs around and doesn’t start a dialogue!

Completed the quest *goodbye tb*.

No, what is this quest? how to get it

In the tavern, ask about the rumors - they will tell you to go to Windhelm to the small Aventus, talk to him, start the quest, then kill the old woman (you will understand by the quest), then finish the quest and go to bed, wake up, kill those who kidnapped you or kill the prisoners and exit at home --- AND THEN YOU SHOULD GET A NOTE THAT THE SHELTER SELLS/ADOPTS CHILDREN SOON.

Thank you very much, I have searched so many sites, nowhere about this!

It can be easier. In Riften, the nursery is being made instead of the enchanter's laboratory. After that, you can find 4 children without any shelter: Lucia in Whiterun, Alesan in Dawnstar, Sophie in Windhelm and Blaise on the Katla farm (near Solitude). Without mods, you can take any two, but they suggest themselves.

I killed everyone in the dark brotherhood, nothing came.

Very, very simple. In order to start adopting or adopting children in the Riften orphanage, you need to complete the Aretino quest (you can find him according to rumors in the Windhelm tavern). In his quest, he summons the Dark Brotherhood to kill an old woman in Riften. After you kill the old woman (preferably do it when she is sleeping, and without witnesses), soon the messenger will bring you a letter from the Dark Brotherhood "We know!". Go to sleep so that you can be kidnapped. You wake up in the Abandoned Shack, meet the head of the Dark Brotherhood, and you have to choose. Kill the main one, and generally exterminate the Dark Brotherhood. Or kill the prisoners and join the Dark Brotherhood. And so and so, you can already adopt or adopt children in a shelter, because now there is a nanny for the main one. (First, you need to buy a house). Actually, I just adopted Sophie from Windhelm and Lucia from Whiterun. Dressed, shod as they say. But I completed Aretino's quest and joined the Dark Brotherhood.
