Minsc The Tank

Description
I've been playing Baldur's Gate and decided I wanted my favorite tank to follow me around Skyrim. Just a basic follower for now. He doesn't set off traps, doesn't affect your sneak meter, and is marriable. He is compatible with AFT and should be compatible with other follower mods. If not let me know and I'll try to fix it. You can find him in the Drunken Huntsman in Whiterun.

Now with dual-wielding! Just take away his greatsword when you first pick him up. If you already have him, take away 2 handed gear and shields and he should dual-wield whatever is best in his inventory. I added the cheat tag because he's invulnerable. I was using it to test his combat, and since he got uploaded with it, I figured I'd keep him that way. Besides, Minsc should always be unstoppable.

Updated to remove the default hunting bow and arrows.

He can be found on Nexus here: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/52174/?

(The box behind him in the 3rd image is Luggage made by Vault Boy: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=74996646 )

Please leave a comment if there's any bugs, issues, or if you have any suggestions!

I've also added Dynaheir, a mage that will heal herself! You can find her here: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=174044620

If you're looking for a good sneaking companion, give Imoen a try. Mostly ranged with dual-wielding: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=174995143

@ drach: Unfortunately there's no custom dialogue for them. It is something I wanted to try and do, but I don't have the experience or resources to create custom voices and dialogue.

@necromancer 1218: Imoen is up, linked above. Sneak archer with dual-wield.

I'm trying to decide if I'm going to make Boo a custom item for his inventory/shoulder, or if I'm going to make a custom follower. Either way its going to take a lot of time and work, and learning. I'll be trying to figure it out in my spare time, but spare time will also be scarce.

Squeaky wheel GETS THE KICK!

Boo wonders if he will be a buff or a pet that walks on the ground? Boo does not walk on the ground; he walks on Minsc who walks on the ground! Space hampsters do not walk on the ground, Boo wants you to know this (gives a thoughtful and serious nod).

And now he dual-wields. You should be able to just give him a couple 1 handed weapons. Take his 2 handeds & shields. I uploaded pics of him face-tanking a pair of giants, it was fun to watch.
