Skyrim:Storm Mage

< NPCs

Storm Mages are enemy spellcasters who specialize in the Shock Damage branch of Destruction magic. They are typically found in a few caves, keeps, and ruins across Skyrim known as warlock lairs. Like other elemental mages (fire mages and ice mages), they belong to the Fire/Frost/Shock Mage NPC class.

The type of storm mage you encounter depends on your level. You will continue to meet low-level storm mages even at high levels, but boss-level storm mages will always be at the highest possible level.

Storm Mages

A powerful Arch Electromancer fires a bolt of lightning

Storm mages rely on powerful shock-based spells in combat, and carry a leveled dagger in case of close-quarters fighting (iron, steel, orcish, dwarven, elven, glass, or an enchanted dagger of any quality from iron to Daedric). They also have a 10% chance to carry a leveled Conjuration or Destruction staff.

They wear a pair of boots along with black mage robes, hooded black mage robes, robes of Alteration, robes of Destruction, robes of Restoration, or robes of Fortify Magicka Rate.

In addition to the gear listed above, storm mages have a small chance to carry potions, poisons, soul gems, Novice or Apprentice level spell tomes, ingredients (common, uncommon, or rare), recipes, and a small amount of gold. They also have atronach forge recipes in their inventories, but their chance of appearing in the mages' inventories in-game is set at 0%.

On death, storm mages have a 10% chance to drop potions and poisons, and a 5% chance to drop one of the following scrolls:

The lowest level storm mages (Novice Storm Mages) do not have any miscellaneous items; they are equipped only with the boots, robes, and daggers listed above.

Electromancers and Arch Electromancers have the same gear as lower-level storm mages, but have a 50% chance to carry a Staff of Chain Lightning and do not have the leveled lists for atronach forge recipes.

Notes

  • All the generic shock mages that are High Elves are listed twice in the leveled lists, which means shock mages are slightly more likely to be High Elves than one of the other races.
