Lucan Valerius

Lucan Valerius is an Imperial who lives in Riverwood and runs the Riverwood Trader with his sister, Camilla Valerius.

Background
Lucan runs the local general goods shop, the Riverwood Trader. He is first seen arguing with his sister Camilla over the recent robbery by Arvel the Swift.

The Golden Claw
Lucan's Golden Claw has been stolen by Arvel the Swift. Arvel stole the Golden Claw to access Bleak Falls Barrow. If Lucan dies, however, his sister Camilla sends the Dragonborn to retrieve it instead.

Wares
Lucan sells weapons, apparel, miscellaneous items and food, along with Spell Tomes.

Location

 * Riverwood Trader

Trivia

 * If the Dragonborn kills Lucan before marrying his sister, Camilla will not marry them.
 * Lucan can be added to the marriage faction like other characters in "forced marriage".
 * If Camilla has been murdered without being seen, Lucan will shut down his shop. If the attempt to engage him in the dialogue has been made, he will say he does not feel like talking.
 * If Lucan is killed at no fault of the Dragonborn, such as by vampires or dragons and the Golden Claw has been returned to the Riverwood Trader, the Dragonborn will receive a letter of condolence from Jarl Balgruuf and 90 gold as an inheritance.
 * If the Golden Claw is not returned to him, his shop will remain open at all times, instead of closing at night.
 * It's impossible to return the claw to Lucan unless the entire Bleak Falls Barrow has been cleared. In other words, it's not possible to retrieve the claw from Arvel and take it straight back to Lucan without opening the door to the Hall of Stories.
 * Lucan was voiced by Stephen Russell.

Bugs

 * If player saves the game while inside the Riverwood Trader, then restart the console, Lucan will have a complete restock of his gold.
 * Using the Investor perk to invest 500 in his shop will cause him to have 10,000 total gold; the game engine adds twenty instances of the perk. This remains throughout the game, always carrying around 11000 gold which replenishes every three days. This makes him the best option for getting rid of useless or valuable loot. Fixed by patch 1.9
 * If spoken to outside his shop, while the "What do you have for sale?" option is not available, he can still be asked if he sells any spells. Doing so will cause him to offer the contents of his inventory for sale.
