I've never tried him. Does he have enough to say or is he a "silent" NPC? Willie Bruce is cool, and Tsujatha, Saerileth, and I only had Kindrek a bit because I found I can't survive without mages. But at least they have romances and/or dialogues.
I don't know if this guy talks. If a NPC doesn't talk I don't take. I need chatter, man! LOL
