After being proclaimed Thane in a city, the Dragonborn can purchase houses from the Jarls' stewards, alongside various improvements and furniture for said house. Hold Guards will excuse the Dragonborn from crimes if they mention they are the Thane in a dialogue option when confronted, but this only works once. Rarely, if the Dragonborn has enough, the title of Thane may be given. It is only granted if the Dragonborn completes tasks for people of the hold, and personally assists the Jarl in official or unofficial business, depending on the city. The title of Thane is an honor gifted by a city's Jarl to the Dragonborn. Interactions The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
