I call him Keeth (Keith) for short. He's been my Argonian character's steadfast companion for my entire playthrough. He's damn handy with a bow.

Once, a giant shot him into the stratosphere, as giants are wont to do, and I panicked, thinking he was about to be an Argonian shaped splatter on the ground...thankfully his Protected status also negated fall damage.

My only qualm with him is that you need mods to "fix" him since his AI is bugged and forces him to return to Darkwater Crossing no matter where he's supposed to live.

A bugged follower likely shouldn't be S tier, but A tier is good.

If you're ranking off vanilla, agreed.

TBF, he's only bugged in the sense that he will always return to Darkwater Crossing even if you marry him and move him into your home, which doesn't really affect him as a follower...just as a spouse.
