Lydia is missing

[ThatOneGuy]

That is abaut it. I was adventuring but then i notice that Lydia has disappeared. I dont know when it happened and no matter how long i wait she does not come back. She was carrying dragon scales and dragon bones so i would really like know that where she is.

Well she's off selling your dragon stuff and making a good life out of the money ....

Any way to track her down?

[cheshirm]

without resorting to console commands, she should return to Breezehome (if you bought it) in Whiterun or return to Dragonsreach main hall eventually.

eventually.. like in 1 day?

[Sfenneke]

Did you try the console commands?

Well, Lydia may have died while on your quest, but there are cheat codes that you can use to revive her, but I'm not much of an expert on what it is and what it does, but I know it exists.

Sometimes, in quests like Break of Dawn, followers can get left in the dungeon after you've been teleported out as part of the story line. If you think this might have happened, just go back into the dungeon by any door and then exit again. If she was stuck in there, she'll follow you out now when you exit.

Just a possible solution.

It has been awhile since I have had this problem, but if I recall there is a cell that is located under the terrain where NPCs can get assigned to when leaving certain areas like dungeons or various other interior sections. You can use the placeatme <baseid> command from the console to bring them back to you.

[Freaky Man-Baby]

If she did die and you want to get back that dragon stuff THAT badly, her body would probably be in the body dump room. its pretty much a place where the game puts bodys when they despawn. look it up.

[cheshirm]

I said "eventually" because she walks back from wherever you abandoned/left/lost her. try saving the game. then go back to breezehome/dragonsreach and sleep 24 until she shows up.
if she doesnt show after a week or two, she may be dead so go back to the save and try console commands to restore her. the UESP wiki for one has the exact console commands.

[Rabidnid]

Did you tell her to wait? if so she will get bored and return to Whiterun after about 4 days. Otherwisae she is dead if she does not turn up the next time you travel to a new cell. I tend to make a mod in the creation kit that makes followers like Lydia and Iona essential and gets rid of the steel armour and vanilla sword. That way you know she will come back eventually.

She is not dead my enemies are VERY low leveled compared to Lydia. And i did alredy hire a new companion to carry my stuff. Is that a bad thing? And i visited dragonreach she was not there. even though i visited dragonreach after couple days or weeks after her disappearence. But is there a console command to find her? If so then what is it?

If you were able to hire someone else to follow you after Lydia's dissapearance that means that you either dismissed Lydia or she died. If she was out there and lost somewhere she is still 'following' you and you're not able to hire another person---If you try to hire someone else they will say 'no, you appear to have someone already'...... so she's either dead or you told her to bugger off.
