Sam Guevenne

 is a Breton mage who appears in the tavern of the town closest to the Dragonborn upon reaching level 14, where he challenges them to a drinking competition.He is an imbarrisment to all Bretons.

Equipment and combat
Typically adorned in Black Robes, Sam rarely wears a hood when encountered. He summons a Dremora Lord when attacked.He used to be addicted to skooma and also assisinated his mother and threated a member of the college of winterhold..

A Night to Remember
Upon locating him, he offers a drinking contest and a staff as a reward. By taking three drinks of his special ale, the Dragonborn blacks out, awakening again at the Temple of Dibella in Markarth. After cleaning up the mess made the night before and apologizing for causing a scene, the Dragonborn asks the priestess Senna, for clues about Sam's location. Her hints lead to Rorikstead.

Upon entering a portal there, Sam reveals himself as Daedric Lord, Sanguine. And, as promised, Sanguine offers the Sanguine Rose, a Daedric staff that allows a Dremora Lord to be summoned.

Trivia

 * It was the developer's intention for his name to sound like Sanguine, when spoken quickly. Guevenne, however, has two additional vowel sounds.
 * If you enter the portal as a werewolf, Sam will attack you using Storm Destruction Magic rather than his usual Conjuration Magic.

Bugs

 * There is sometimes a glitch where the Dragonborn doesn't black out after Sam says "You don't look so good". It is suspected that this is caused by the death of Ysolda, a Nord in Whiterun. However, this also happens even if Ysolda is alive; Ysolda is flagged as essential before the completion of the quest.
 * When starting "The Night to Remember" quest, the objective will say "Talk to Sam Guenvere" instead of Guevenne.
