As long as we get some non-Origins companions and preferably ones with a more grounded backstory, I might give the game another chance out of curiosity. It would be a shame however if non-Origins companions are given the short straw with their back stories though (I always enjoyed the companion quests in previous BG games, something which seems lacking in BG3 as all companion stories revolve around the tadpole).

A Dwarf rogue might have made for a refreshing change from the habitual but we already have a rogue with that annoying twat Astarion. I truly hope that Helia isn't a
werewolf
because it just feels so cheesy and contrived alongside having a vampire companion already.

What are the odds if there is a Dwarf companion that he claims he used to be tall but the tadpole made him short?
