Bandit Chief

The  is the strongest variant of a Bandit. They also contain the most valuable loot among a group of bandits. More often than not, Bandit Chiefs are Orcs. However, other races compose their ranks, such as Nords and Imperials.

Bandit Chiefs also wear heavy armor and tend to brandish a sword and shield combo, but some may also wield two handed weapons as well. Bandit Chiefs are located near the end of the dungeon or at the furthest point inside a camp or hold, and are usually accompanied with at least one to two weaker Bandit variants. They can be very tricky to kill, as they are known to often wield an enchanted weapon, and reside in small places, where backing off is hard.
