Amren

Amren is a Redguard found in Whiterun. He is married to a Redguard woman named Saffir. He serves as a trainer of One-Handed.

Background
He left military service for his family, and although he misses it sometimes, he says he's glad to be with his family.

Interactions
Upon the Dragonborn's arrival in Whiterun the first time Amren can be witnessed arguing with his wife Saffir in front of their house about his attempts to retrieve his family sword. His wife is upset that he's wasting too much money on the endeavor. He employs the Dragonborn with locating his family sword, which has been stolen by a thief. Upon completion of his quest, he increases the Dragonborn's One-Handed skill. If One-Handed is already mastered, he will increase the Block. While his quest resembles the fetch-quests of other potential followers, he does not become one upon retrieving his sword.
