Companions are unique characters that can be customized by the player and sent on tasks.
Companions can be assigned to:
- Complete quests, given that they satisfy the skill requirements. They will leave for a period of days until the quest is completed, troops may also be required.
- Lead caravans, which will travel on the campaign map gaining income for the clan with their trade skill.
- Lead war parties, and they cost no influence when you ask them to join your army.
- Govern settlements, applying any "Governor" perks. Note if their culture does not match the settlement there is a loyalty penalty (can be negated with the right perks).
- "Diplomacy". Leaving a party member in a castle or town increases your relations with the owner (potentially notables in the town as well) over time.
Recruitment[]
Companions can be recruited at major towns in the tavern. All companions have an occupation of Wanderer. To find all available companions in the game you open the in-game encyclopedia, go to Heroes, and then filter on the Wanderer occupation. From there, you can also see each companion's skill levels before recruiting them.
- missing a lot of companions.
Companion Suffixes[]
Every character has a name followed by a suffix, such as "Vasinya the Accursed", or "Mina the Black". The suffix determines the companion's starting skills.
Warning: These are subject to change since the game is still in Early Access Release! For example in beta version e1.1.0 skills were significantly changed.
Below is a list of known suffixes and their starting values.
