Faendal's Body Location

[Indigo Laz3r]

Faendal died with all my good stuff, and I can't find his body. Isn't there a place like the hall of dead where his body goes after he dies?

Next time buy a house.

I'm pretty sure the body just despawns, so if you want your loot back the only way might be from a previous save.

I have two houses, what would be the point of them if he DIED?

He might be in the Whiterun Hall of the Dead since Riverwood is close to that city.

I already checked there, but unless his urn is the most hidden thing in this game, it's not there.

Unfortunately, NPCs from regions with no Hall of the Dead may just be moved to the Dead Body Clean-up cell.
That means that it may be impossible to reclaim the loot from their corpses unless you get to them before they despawn or use their RefId to moveto player in the console.

Because your "good stuff" could have been in them, instead of on him.

That can be worked around with mods, Bring Out Your Dead by Arthmoor for example, though obviously in this case it's already too late.
