Summary
The Skyrim IKEA collaboration-inspired Creation Kallax Storage Born adds one of the most unusual companions you can bring into your adventures: a living Kallax-style shelving unit. Created by King Gath Creations and voiced by comedian Matt Berry, this Creation combines Skyrim exploration with IKEA-inspired furniture, strange Dwemer technology, and a surprisingly useful storage system.
Instead of simply adding decorative furniture, Kallax Storage Born gives you a companion that can follow you, help during combat, organize clutter, and eventually provide effectively unlimited storage. Here is how to start the quest, find Kallax, restore its memories, and unlock its full potential. To speed up the process, buy The Elder Scrolls Online Items and acquire the resources.
How to Start Kallax Storage Born
The Creation begins with a mysterious magical apparition that points you toward a workshop south of Falkreath. Following the instructions eventually leads you to a new location called Store Reach.
Store Reach immediately establishes the IKEA-inspired theme. The area looks like a strange combination of a Skyrim dungeon, a Dwemer ruin, and a massive furniture store. You will encounter furniture displays, rugs, beds, kitchens, sinks, toilets, carts, crates, pallets, food areas, and plenty of traps.
Explore Store Reach
Do not rush through the location. Store Reach contains a variety of unusual equipment and items alongside its furniture-themed environment.
Among the notable discoveries are the Mace of Flat Pack, which has a chance to paralyze enemies, and the Shield of Return Policy, which provides additional defensive utility. Other strange equipment includes the Hexfang dagger, Staff of Disorganization, Sword of Encumbrance, Assistant Staff, and several IKEA-inspired armor and weapon pieces.
You will also encounter an extremely important item: the Staff of Assembly.
Get the Staff of Assembly
The Staff of Assembly is essential to the Kallax quest because it allows you to interact with the Dwemer-style constructs inside Store Reach.
Use the staff to activate the mechanical spiders and other constructs. They can help locate the furniture components needed to assemble your new companion.
The required pieces include components such as shelf dividers, side panels, and wooden dowels. You will also need a soul gem to provide the power necessary for the completed shelving unit.
Once the pieces are gathered and the assembly process is completed, the ordinary-looking shelf becomes something much more interesting.
Bring Kallax to Life
Kallax is not simply a piece of furniture after assembly. It becomes a sentient companion capable of talking, following you, waiting, trading items, and participating in combat.
It can also heal you and provide storage, making it useful both inside and outside of combat.
Kallax can eventually be summoned with a new shout, allowing you to bring the shelving companion with you instead of leaving it permanently in one location.
Upgrade Kallax and Recover Its Memories
Although Kallax becomes functional after assembly, its story is not finished. The shelving unit is initially missing important memories, and you need to help restore them.
One of the first steps involves forging an iron shelf protector and giving it to Kallax. The armor triggers a memory connected to a young female assistant and reveals that there is much more behind the strange living shelf.
Find the Heirlooms
Kallax then asks you to recover important heirlooms. This sends you toward additional locations and dungeons around Skyrim.
One notable location is associated with the Allen Blade near Solitude. Another is Shadow Green Cavern, located on the northern side of the mountain near Solitude.
These locations continue the IKEA-inspired adventure while gradually revealing Kallax's history.
Recovering the heirlooms is important because it unlocks additional abilities for Kallax, including improved storage and better clutter-management capabilities.
Use Kallax as a Mobile Storage Companion
The most practical reason to complete the Kallax quest is its storage system.
Rather than treating Kallax as a conventional follower, you can use it as a mobile shelving unit for the enormous amount of equipment and miscellaneous objects collected during a Skyrim playthrough.
Store Your Heavy Loot
Dragon bones, Dwemer metal, ingots, books, weapons, boots, soul gems, food, and other items can all become part of Kallax's collection.
The companion can also display stored objects visibly on its shelves, turning your accumulated loot into part of the furniture itself.
This makes Kallax particularly useful for players who frequently become overencumbered or collect large quantities of crafting materials and miscellaneous objects.
Let Kallax Clean Up Your Home
Kallax is not limited to carrying items. One of its most entertaining features is its ability to interact with clutter.
You can direct Kallax to collect loose objects and place them into storage. It can also help organize an untidy environment, making it much easier to deal with the piles of miscellaneous items that can accumulate inside Skyrim homes.
Kallax can even restore objects that have been knocked over and help return furniture or other items to their proper positions.
Discover Hidden Mechanisms
Its organizational abilities can also be useful during exploration. Kallax can clear away clutter and reveal hidden mechanisms or paths that might otherwise be difficult to notice.
This gives the companion a purpose beyond simple inventory management and fits the Creation's central idea: a shelving unit that exists to organize everything around it.
Complete the Final Quest and Unlock Full Storage
The heirloom storyline eventually reveals the truth behind Kallax's existence. The identity of the original master is not what you might initially expect.
Kallax itself is connected to the soul-transfer process that created the sentient shelving unit. The story also leads back to the young assistant whose soul was transferred into an inanimate object by choice.
This eventually results in a confrontation with the assistant.
Defeat the Clutter-Themed Boss
The final battle embraces the Creation's unusual sense of humor. The boss uses clutter, trash, a broomstick, a ladle, flying paper, magical defenses, and explosive objects as weapons.
Kallax plays an important role during the encounter. Its ability to clear away debris helps create opportunities for you to attack the boss.
After defeating the assistant, Kallax finally understands its purpose as a useful shelving unit and organizer.
What You Unlock After Finishing Kallax's Story
Completing the storyline transforms Kallax into a much more powerful storage companion.
Its storage capacity becomes effectively unlimited, allowing you to move enormous quantities of items into one convenient location. You can also command Kallax to collect loose clutter and organize objects around you.
This makes the Creation especially useful for long Skyrim playthroughs where inventory space becomes a constant problem.
Instead of repeatedly returning home to unload materials, you can take Kallax with you and use the living shelf as a portable storage solution.
Final Tips for Using Kallax
If you want to get the most from the Skyrim IKEA collaboration-inspired Creation, focus on completing the story rather than stopping immediately after assembling the shelf.
First, explore Store Reach thoroughly and collect the important equipment. Then obtain the Staff of Assembly and gather the components needed for Kallax.
After Kallax comes to life, continue the memory and heirloom quests. The additional upgrades are what turn it from an amusing companion into a genuinely useful storage and organization tool.
Once the final storyline is complete, Kallax becomes one of the most unusual utility companions available in this Creation. With effectively unlimited storage, item collection, clutter cleanup, healing, combat assistance, and the ability to follow you throughout Skyrim, it is far more than an IKEA-inspired piece of furniture. To make the most of this unique companion, The Elder Scrolls Online Items can help you stock up on useful gear.
