Now let's move on to the topics tab. First we must give our companion the same thing we must give all NPC’s. Right click on the empty list under Editor ID and select Add Topic. Scroll down untill you find '''GREETING''' in capital letters, select it and hit OK. Now right click in the empty list at the top under the Info column and select new. Type whatever you want in the response text, for my companion I will use “'''My will is at your command.'''” And you may play around with the emotion settings if you like. You may even add voice overs if you got the equipment for it but be warned if you can't do good voice overs then you shouldn’t do any at all. After you finish the response hit OK at the bottom.

Let's go back to our NPC window. Find your companion in the object window in the list of NPC's and double click it. Now lets click on the AI button near the bottom.

-If you plan to create more then one companion or use your companion mod along side others keep in mind you can't have more then 3 companions following you at once. This is something that cannot be changed, it is built into Oblivion’s engine. If you need to go on those escort quests like taking Martin to Cloud Ruler Temple, you may want to tell your companions to wait at certain locations and come pick them back up later.
