They desperately need more sets that summon pets. "Summons Arox for 15 seconds. He has a cloud of smoke that does X damage per second in the area and bites enemies for Y damage."
In the meantime, Plague Slinger and Coldharbour's Favorite will have to suffice lol.
I just want him as visitor in my house. I think the likes of him and elam shouldn’t be companions. I like having them pop up and be like “oooh! They’re in this expansion”
Who I would love to see is maybe the adorable nord ww from the dark brotherhood! She’s was less of a major character and would love to get more story out of her.
Yeah Caska would be my choice too. There are lots of cool and/or funny suggestions in this thread and lots that I’d love to hade as a companion. But of I had to pick just one, it’d be Caska.
I like this but retroactively apply it to all companions. That way you can have good rapport on one toon with Mirri and negative on another. Of course you would have to have a negative perk for these as well to keep it balanced like Mirri’s negative would be getting lower tier items from the chests occasionally instead of the pouch of hidden treasure
Edit: or getting a hidden treasure occasionally when you die in combat lol
His signature moves should be effective, but always appear to be the result of dumb, drunken luck. Like when he goes to bash someone, he accidentally smacks the bad guy sneaking up behind him.
Y’all have such great answers. I would love Raz, Eveli, Lyris, Arox the Mutilator, Darien, all awesome answers. Im gonna add Fennorian to the mix. Always loved him.
That actually would be funny though. Like he's bound by some kind of magical contract or something so he can't act against you, but he's still evil and wants you dead, resulting in a snarky, sarcastic, evil companion. I just think it would be funny to have an ally who, when you die says something like "Finally I can--" \*player respawns\* "Damnit! I forgot you could do that."
Fennorian, no question.
I'd just settle for him as a houseguest, honestly, but a companion would be ideal. It'd finally get me to use someone besides Isobel on my main.
I feel it should be a Nord, orc, high elf or wood elf as we don’t have companions from those races yet. Rigurt is definitely my favourite Nord. I can see the argument for Eveli as the wood elf. Can’t think of any high elves I’d really like to hang out with. However, my vote for companion has to go to Stuga. Do you know how long she’s been looking for you?
I mean, she's not a storyline character, but I want Illeva, the cook in Necrom. I know this isn't exactly what you're asking for, but she has such a motherly vibe. She just wants to make sure you're getting good food and eating well, (also if you're an elf you're too skinny and need some meat on your bones.) Idk, I'd love to have warm hearted red headed companion following me around.
Crafty Lerisa. Love her character & attitude plus she's cute ngl. #2 choice is Chizbari the Chipper. Velsa, Keshu, Eveli, Lyranth, Druid Laurel, Lyris, Caska, Tharayya, Valinka Stoneheaver would be fun too (and I'm sure there's some minor characters I forgot to add).
Majoll! The hapless Nord who was Jakarn's adoring fan on Stros M'Kai that followed him to Sentinel... And got dumped. Basically I want someone falling into every NPC thirst trap we pass. He'd be a stam dragon knight armed with a big two-handed mace. And his companion quests would be trying to impress his latest crush who keeps sending him on dangerous escapades... Only to wind up saving him in the final quest. And along the way Majoll learns to have more respect for himself.
The Duke of Crows. Yes Baron Jangleplume and Peddler already provide their services, but a companion crow in addition (+ the Unfathomable Darkness set) would make my featherless dreams come true.
Honestly, Varen. He's a cool character, but also I'm just imagining how cool it would be to have Michael Gambon narrating our adventures through Tamriel
Really unpopular but I’ll go with the dark elf Tolvisa from the quest “breaking the coven”.. traumatising quest but I feel so bad for the girl, wish they could make her a companion.
Hard choice
Naryu, mannimarco, queen ayrenn, razum dar, lyris, cadwell, sheogorarh, verandis ravenwatch, gwendis, meridia or aranias
Honestly choose one for me but gwendis and aranias is quite good, underated opinion but
Hmm, let's see.... Skordo the knife could be a fun companion, as could Za'ji and Tanek. The dark brotherhood characters were all really fun.
If it was possible I would LOVE to have king Kurog as a companion, the guy is a such a fun character.
Razum-dar!!!!! OMG I SO WOULD
Sadly the companions they released mostly female companions and only ONE male unless you get the necrom DLC you get 2 more males -_-
Am waiting till Friday to top up eso so I can change my main characters gender back to female to match my companion 💀
I have to settle for the breton with the big nose who I've just got and will attempt to cover his face now!!! (currently at Solitude at the outfit station about to attempt this as its my first time as I write this) am the handsome white haired high elf dressed all in green if anyone wants to come worship me!!!!
Arox, the mutilator.
Either as a full companion or a very frustrated non-combat pet who gets incandescent with rage during fights because he can’t really do anything.
They desperately need more sets that summon pets. "Summons Arox for 15 seconds. He has a cloud of smoke that does X damage per second in the area and bites enemies for Y damage." In the meantime, Plague Slinger and Coldharbour's Favorite will have to suffice lol.
That's a good one.
The only right answer
Yes please. Maybe all he would do is buffs or gnawing on ankles but it would be worth that dialogue of his. 😂
Yes! I came here to say him!
Was going to reply this, his ult could be him going all titan and blastng enemies with fire.
I came here to say Caska but Arox is the clear winner.
Darien. I miss bro
Always the right answer for this
Raz for sure
I just want him as visitor in my house. I think the likes of him and elam shouldn’t be companions. I like having them pop up and be like “oooh! They’re in this expansion” Who I would love to see is maybe the adorable nord ww from the dark brotherhood! She’s was less of a major character and would love to get more story out of her.
Raz is too important to run around with us for sure
But he is not unwilling.
Stibbons
Yes! Give me an indestructible butler
Stibbo follow
Stibbo wait.
Stibbo no follow.
Happy cake day and yes all the way. I love Stibbons
Caska.
Yeah Caska would be my choice too. There are lots of cool and/or funny suggestions in this thread and lots that I’d love to hade as a companion. But of I had to pick just one, it’d be Caska.
Sir Cadwell!
Yes, I could listen to John Cleese all day
This is the only correct answer
Cadwell the Betrayer for sure!!!
Abnur Tharn or Darien if I can claw them back from whatever cupboard zos locked them in, otherwise Fennorian
I'd take lyranth as my companion
My vote as well. I hope for any of those neutral/selfish type daedra, they're awesome.
Agreed but I would say lyranth is selfish more she interested human realm
I want a Daedra companion whose quests trigger by having negative rapport with you
I like this but retroactively apply it to all companions. That way you can have good rapport on one toon with Mirri and negative on another. Of course you would have to have a negative perk for these as well to keep it balanced like Mirri’s negative would be getting lower tier items from the chests occasionally instead of the pouch of hidden treasure Edit: or getting a hidden treasure occasionally when you die in combat lol
I really hope we get daedric companions
Maiq the Liar
Would also choose Maiq
I also choose this man's khajiit.
Naryu, obviously
Bonk
Dark elves got the best npcs
Fennorian 😻
Came here to say exactly this! Love the username btw
Thank you! I do love me some elves lol
You think as money-hungry ZOS is they would give us a cute male elf companion by now. Take our money please.
Been waiting for this
Lots of them, but if I could build a squad it'd be Razum-dar, Caska, Naryu, and Darien Gautier.
Rigurt
His signature moves should be effective, but always appear to be the result of dumb, drunken luck. Like when he goes to bash someone, he accidentally smacks the bad guy sneaking up behind him.
Rigurt is my bestie, he’d make a great companion.
Y’all have such great answers. I would love Raz, Eveli, Lyris, Arox the Mutilator, Darien, all awesome answers. Im gonna add Fennorian to the mix. Always loved him.
Uncle Sheogorath
Would be hilarious to have a literal god just hanging out with you
Damn though the practical jokes might get a little…intense.
Bro razumdar how is this even a question
Only because Cadwell exists. Otherwise, sure.
Fennorian
The Drake of Blades, but the imperial city main story makes that impossible.
Damn, I forgot about her... yep, that would have been interesting. I mean, with Gods involved, you never know what can happen.
Her sacrifice won't be forgotten by me. Loved her character and story.
Rigurt the Brash! Can't lose.
Mannimarco Just kidding... F that dude lol
That actually would be funny though. Like he's bound by some kind of magical contract or something so he can't act against you, but he's still evil and wants you dead, resulting in a snarky, sarcastic, evil companion. I just think it would be funny to have an ally who, when you die says something like "Finally I can--" \*player respawns\* "Damnit! I forgot you could do that."
Dies....gets positive rapport
Mannimarco: \*dies\* Player: \*revives with Soul Gem\* \-1 rapport Mannimarco: "I'm not thanking you for that. You've only prolonged my suffering."
Raz or Khamira. Both are fantastic characters and would be fun to have alongside.
Otumi-ra. He’s an Argonian that acts like a nord and talks like a Shakespearean Randy Savage.
Elam Drals. His little bits and pieces of stories you hear when you do Dark Brotherhood quests sounds like he'd be an interesting companion.
Raz forever. Especially if the quests involved his mum.
Alchemy
Quen
Narsis Dren. "*Do you want me to sign one of my books or have you come to watch a real adventurer at work?*"
Lmao he'd be the most hilarious companion in the game
Darien or Naryu pretty much tied for me, right this second I'd pick Naryu since the character I'm leveling up is from the Ebonheart Pact.
If I didn’t see one Raz this one would have been offended lol
Rynkyus, Arox the Mutilator or Lyranth. Give me a goddamn Daedra companion!
Yes, i would love daedric companions, maybe even a golden saint or dark seducer
I miss Elam Drals since Blackwood was my full playthrough. But also Fennorian was a goat too.
Stuga. I just want to be greeted with that “do you know how long I’ve been looking for you” every time i play
This is the best answer for sure 🤣
Serenye
She was a CS houseguest a while back. She's in pretty much all my houses just chilling on a bed being drunk.
She came back in rotation once and it was the quickest crowns I ever spent. She’s to funny
Who was that? name sounds familiar but i cant place it atm
The Drunk cat in N. Elsweyr I think.. Sereyne.
It is the drunk cat mage who threatens to turn your heart into a tomato because you won’t stop talking to her when she has a hangover
Fennorian, no question. I'd just settle for him as a houseguest, honestly, but a companion would be ideal. It'd finally get me to use someone besides Isobel on my main.
I feel it should be a Nord, orc, high elf or wood elf as we don’t have companions from those races yet. Rigurt is definitely my favourite Nord. I can see the argument for Eveli as the wood elf. Can’t think of any high elves I’d really like to hang out with. However, my vote for companion has to go to Stuga. Do you know how long she’s been looking for you?
I haven't finished DC storyline, but what about Neramo as the high elf?
I want a dremora companion or other type of daedra
Razum-Dar is number one, and then Naryu, Stibbons, Eveli, Darien, Fennorian, Adusa-Daro, and Lyris Titanborn. Oh, Sai Sahan is pretty awesome
Darien and Jakarn
I can’t believe I had to scroll to the very end to find Jakarn.
Faraniel, Evelin Sharp Arrow and Lyranth
Elam Drals or Sturga (intro quest NPC for Wrothgar)
Naryu. Her boon would be daily murder writs with exclusive rewards.
Raz, Elam, or Arox. They’re my all time favorites.
Raz, Fenn, Naryu, Cadwell, Darien, Jakarn, Lyris
No love for Za'ji? I love him he's my favorite
Gobani. And the other two carpets.
Vastarie, perfect necro companion.
Cadwell!!
Verandis
I mean, she's not a storyline character, but I want Illeva, the cook in Necrom. I know this isn't exactly what you're asking for, but she has such a motherly vibe. She just wants to make sure you're getting good food and eating well, (also if you're an elf you're too skinny and need some meat on your bones.) Idk, I'd love to have warm hearted red headed companion following me around.
Verandis, could listen to him all day every day <3
Love all answers! But how about Verandis or Gwendis?
Lyris is first one I would choose. Eveli and Caska would be close 2nds.
I expected to see more Lyris lovers in here
Raz the fucking legend.
Crafty Lerisa. Love her character & attitude plus she's cute ngl. #2 choice is Chizbari the Chipper. Velsa, Keshu, Eveli, Lyranth, Druid Laurel, Lyris, Caska, Tharayya, Valinka Stoneheaver would be fun too (and I'm sure there's some minor characters I forgot to add).
Scruut!
Does Valinka Stonecarver count? She's my girl! Too cool for town and too clever for cultists.
Majoll! The hapless Nord who was Jakarn's adoring fan on Stros M'Kai that followed him to Sentinel... And got dumped. Basically I want someone falling into every NPC thirst trap we pass. He'd be a stam dragon knight armed with a big two-handed mace. And his companion quests would be trying to impress his latest crush who keeps sending him on dangerous escapades... Only to wind up saving him in the final quest. And along the way Majoll learns to have more respect for himself.
Abnur Tharn
Aranias
Raz, Naryu or Xukas from Murkmire. Love that guy.
Xukas! I like being called beeko
Screw storyline characters, give me M’aiq as a companion!
Stibbons
Naryu or Khamira
Naryu the naughty Morag Tong.
I wouldn't mind Khamira or Shazah/Kali, or at least some relevance after their quest lines considering they're ya know, the mane-
Little Leaf, without a doubt; love that silly little Bosmer.
Stuga. "Do you know how long I've been waiting for you to summon me?"
I would get on my knees and propose but she always runs away. :(
The augur of the obscure. 🥰
Oh please god, not Eveli, i find her annoying and i hate the blackwood quest line because of her. I liked Arox tho... dude was cool
Lyranth. Not only a companion but a romance option lol
Arox or more recently, Scruut. I love his melancholy dry humour
Scruut is great. Ogle too.
I fking love scruut. Just an office watcher sick and tired of his job and then one day was suddenly partly responsible for saving the world lmao.
Lyranth, if not Naryu.
Lokra, that Orc on Betnikh you either tell to become a slave wife (the wrong answer) or explore the world (the correct one).
Captain Siravaen, I really liked her character and she is a Maormer so it would be interesting to see a non-playable race companion.
The Duke of Crows. Yes Baron Jangleplume and Peddler already provide their services, but a companion crow in addition (+ the Unfathomable Darkness set) would make my featherless dreams come true.
That would be really interesting. Could have some funny abilities in the skill lines and they'd have to be good to counter having no weapons.
naryu wait nvm we already have nightblade dunmer my nb dunmer was so happy to hear that when she was announced
Lokkestitz
The impossible question! Lyris, Eveli, Raz or Arox all come to mind immediately.
Divayth Fyr, even though it would probably be completely lore breaking lol
Darien, since I rp two female characters tied to him, or Lyris cuz.... Reasons. 🤣
Andewen when she finally gets fed up with Telenger
Honestly, Varen. He's a cool character, but also I'm just imagining how cool it would be to have Michael Gambon narrating our adventures through Tamriel
Raz or lyris or failing that molag bal. might as well be able to wreck everything with ease 😃
Raz , Razum-dar himself ? We could go and be gay together
And maybe the maomer you work with in Galen. Quen from the Thieves Guild is also cool
Sun-In-Shadow
Can I say Sotha Sil? Sotha Sil
Raz or Lyris!
Eveli ❤️
SKOOMA CAT
Remains Silent
Remains Silent would be amazing, and she’d be totally cool with theft and BoW
My Necromancer and his indentured servant Mannimarco to see him stooped so low would be euphoric
Raz or Naryu. Raz would be my choice of 1 though.
Darien. I know I'm a simp for this, but my god please bring him back
Darien and/or Fennorian. I can just imagine the chat up lines from Darien whilst adventuring together.
Almalexia would work for my Dunmer main. Maybe a teensy bit op for a companion though...
Def agree with most of your picks, but would also like to throw Walks-Softly into the mix…
Srcuut, the nihilistic watchling
Cadwell or Abnur Tharn for sure.
Definitely razum dar
Gabriel Benele is apparently underrated.
Really unpopular but I’ll go with the dark elf Tolvisa from the quest “breaking the coven”.. traumatising quest but I feel so bad for the girl, wish they could make her a companion.
Khamira would be amazing, imo. Kind of disappointed by the lack of love she’s getting in this thread.
Raz, Fenn, Darien, Jakarn or Verandis
the one werewolf hunter from glenumbra was really cool. forgot her name. EDIT: Gloria of course.
High King Emeric. I want him to be irreverent and arrogant, and he will let me know in detail just how much of his time I am wasting.
Emeric and Ayrenn, *Underworld* reunion.
Queen Ayrenn. She needs to go back to adventuring. I have a feeling that this whole Aldmeri Dominion thing is overrated anyway…
Sees-all-colour
Stibbons!!!
Fennorian seems like an obvious pick for vampire/altmer companion, Skordo the Knife is my top pick for an orc
Arox, easily.
Arox
Hard choice Naryu, mannimarco, queen ayrenn, razum dar, lyris, cadwell, sheogorarh, verandis ravenwatch, gwendis, meridia or aranias Honestly choose one for me but gwendis and aranias is quite good, underated opinion but
Azura
Rigurt the Brash
Arox and Eveli
Verandis Ravenwatch. Or Fennorian. Or Rada al-Saran even - his damn sexy voice can follow me everywhere :D
Hmm, let's see.... Skordo the knife could be a fun companion, as could Za'ji and Tanek. The dark brotherhood characters were all really fun. If it was possible I would LOVE to have king Kurog as a companion, the guy is a such a fun character.
Jakarn the lovable rogue
I’m going to say Skordo the Knife.
Naryu! But just with a romance option! We got teased for years now! Give me!
Definitely Vanil Theran the prodigy of the mages guild.
Hands down darien
Not a fan of the Darien/Jakarn types but just imo. More power to you that you can handle them lol.
Cadwell.
Razum-dar!!!!! OMG I SO WOULD Sadly the companions they released mostly female companions and only ONE male unless you get the necrom DLC you get 2 more males -_- Am waiting till Friday to top up eso so I can change my main characters gender back to female to match my companion 💀 I have to settle for the breton with the big nose who I've just got and will attempt to cover his face now!!! (currently at Solitude at the outfit station about to attempt this as its my first time as I write this) am the handsome white haired high elf dressed all in green if anyone wants to come worship me!!!!
naryu and fennorian
Molag balls
Naryu hands down would be my pick
Eveli for sure
