The Enemies in The Elder Scrolls: Castles are a combination of NPCs and creatures that the player fights in Quests or Sheogorath's Gauntlet. The damage and vitality of enemies depends directly on the difficulty of the individual quest, and is not fixed per creature.

Bandits are NPCs enemies. They can have any kind of equipment (except robes), depending on their type and quest difficulty, and their equipment is strictly fixed for each quest. Race and gender are not fixed and will be chosen randomly each time you select a quest. Their armor will always be iron, so it does not reflect their actual vitality.
