If the first post in this thread is accurate, we'll have 8 total.

If the other news that our party will be locked after Act 1 is true, I'm still wondering how they'll manage to introduce even 8 companions in Act 1, with enough time for us to try them out and see who to commit to. Maybe it will work. I'll probably be choosing the party based more on class than personality anyway.


The OP assumes that if it's not available to be datamined right now, it's not in the game. Larian has specifically said there writers each got a companion, except one writer who got 2.

There will be more companions then what the OP has found. Larian aren't fools they know they will need to include at least one, possibly more good female hotties because of who the majority of their audience wants. I'm betting on a Choatic Good Seldarine Drow female, perhaps a Paladin, to buck the "stereotype" of Drow females.

I think the female Tiefling being a Druid could be interesting.

Halia will likely be good too, perhaps a Good Cleric Selune, good Lycanthropes tend to flock to her church, and she'd act as a counter weight to Shadowheart.

Minsc Ranger, possibly Barbarian.

I'm hoping they do Aasimar for a female companion.
