Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - General Can you recruit non-origin characters?

Or are you limited to recruiting the origins on your journey?

You can but only on the very end of act 1. Act 1 is basically origin/custom only.

Frogive me for hi-jacking this thread... it was the closest I could find. For the life of me I could not find a "new thread" button. Either I am blind or it is some anti-spam thing that you can only make a new thread after so many posts.

Anywho.. so here are my questions?

1) If you are in multi-player and a custom non Origin player permanently drops. Can you keep him in you party and the host control him like an AI in single player?

2) If the answer to number 1 is no, is their a way with the steam version to have move than one instance of the game going so I can take over the dropped character?

Thanx, in advance, for any help you can offer.

If a player leaves the game, someone other can take over control, yes.

Thanks so Much.
