To enable these, just hit the Tilde (`) key and enter the appropriate codes.

You
can turn on more than one at once, too, so you can be invincible, fly and telep
ort all at the same time. In the game, of course.
Some of these commands require codes, thankfully we ve compiled a list of those to
o. Just grab the desired number from our Skyrim item codes or Skyrim NPC codes p
osts.
Some of these may cause glitches and/or you to fall out of the gameworld. It s def
initely worth saving your game, and turning off autosave so you don t get indefini
tely stuck in the non-space underneath Windhelm.

There are undoubtedly more codes to come. Skyrim may be built on Bethesda s new Cr
eation engine, but these commands are very similar to Fallout 3 and Oblivion s. Le
t us know what you ve found in the comments.
Go to page two for NPC spawning, making people fight and becoming a giant.
placeatme
Use this to spawn NPCs and monsters at your location. Just replace actor/object
ID with a Base ID (not a Ref ID) from our list of Skyrim NPC codes. This is the
command we used to crank out a horde of dragons around Whiterun. Note that this
command spawns new creatures, rather than moving old ones, if you use it on an N
PC, you ll clone them.
moveto
Use this to move yourself next to an NPC, useful for Kharjo, the nomadic Khajit,
who can be hard to find as he follows the caravans around Skyrim. In this case
you replace the words actor ID with the Ref ID (not the Base ID), the opposite of
placeatme. You can find the ID in our list of Skyrim NPC codes.
setrelationshiprank
Select two NPCs and set the relationship between them, the values range from 4 (
lover) to -4 (archnemesis). Use it to make NPCs fight or do other er more worryin

g things.
addtofaction
Click on an NPC and use this command to add them to a faction. It s not just about
Stormcloaks and Imperials though, using 0005C84D will add a character to the fo
llower faction, giving them the necessary dialogue to join you, while 00019809 w
ill add them to the potential spouse faction, allowing you to marry them. This won t
work on NPCs with unique voices however, so you won t be able to wed Esbern or Ge
neral Tullius any time soon.
disable
Also known as the I have no mouth and I must scream command. Disable banishes the
selected NPC to some sort of weird coding limbo. They become invisible, have no
collisions and AI won t interact with them, but they re still technically there. Hor
rifying.
enable
Undoes the effects of the Disable command. Disabling and then Enabling your foll
ower will reset them to your current level, which is a handy way of making sure
they stay useful in a fight.
setessential
It might be fun putting on god mode and becoming immortal, but don t you get a lit
tle lonely knowing that one day all the other characters you loved will die? I k
now I do. Thankfully there s a solution, simply use this console command with a 1
to set characters to essential , which means they ll take damage until they fall on t
heir knees, but then get up again. Using it with a 0 will turn essential charact
ers mortal, but be careful with that, Bethesda probably made them immortal for a
reason.
setownership
This command sets you as the owner of the targeted item, removing all those anno
ying stolen tags from your ill gotten gains.
setstage
This allows you to move the quests you re back to a prior stage or forward to a ne
w one. Useful if you ve somehow broken it by murdering the wrong NPC. Skyrim wiki
has a useful list of quests, along with IDs and stages.
setscale
Changes the size of the player or NPC. You start out at level one, which is norm
al sized, while zero is small. It goes all the way up to an absurdly huge ten, a
s pictured in the thumbnail.
unequipitem
Click on an NPC and type this to force them to put the item they re holding away.
Useful if they re holding a sword you want.
fov
Sets your field of view. You can also do this through the ini file, but this way
lets you see the effects right away, for easier adjusting.

tfow
Turns off the fog of war on your local map, filling it in completely. This doesn t
do anything to the world map. or to the actual fog.
s1st
This usual command toggles the first person arms in the third person view. So yo
u see your arms behind you, performing the same actions. Finally the chance to p
lay Skyrim by pretending you re an diabolical puppet master!
player.Drop
Forces the player to drop items, even usually undroppable quest items. Try just
rop to drop absolutely everything you re carrying.

dispelallspells
Unsurprisingly, dispells all spells on the target NPC. This won t work on werewolv
es, as they technically become a different NPC when they transform.
getlevel
Tells you the level of the target NPC. Useful to check if your follower is level
ling up with you. If they aren t, use the disable and enable commands to reset the
m to your level.
MarkForDelete
Marking an item for deletion sends a contract to the Dark Brotherhood, ensuring
it will never been seen or heard from again. It will be removed from the world t
he next time you load an area. A useful way to get rid of annoying things like a
sh piles that never seem to go away.
pushactoraway
Pushes an actor away in a random direction. The number represents the force, set
it high for maximum fus doh rah.
setgs fJumpHeightMin
Sets the player s jump height. A high value means enormous moon hops.
