Hey
I always notice that I find some of the NPCs interesting in the conversations and plots and would love to have them as companions in the group.
For example, in Act 1 at the beginning, there are a few that always give me the idea to take them with me.
Depending on how I play the game, so more good or more evil, these would be:
Sazza the Goblin, who is in the cage and you can free her and then go with her to the Drow boss in the Goblin camp.
In an evil group, she would please me well so as a somewhat stupid, but loyal companion, from which I then make a real fighter hehe....
Or Kagha herself, the druid wannabe chief and her snake. Somehow I like her whole way and it would be conceivable to take her on the evil as well as good playstyle.
Then there would be Lia the tiefling lady who, when talking to her brother and the budding mage, is so committed to staying and helping.
She seems so self-sacrificing and kind. For a good playthrough, I would definitely like to take her along.
These are only 3 examples, there were here and there so one or the other candidate.
Do you also have the desire to have exactly the NPC in the group and if so which one and why?
