There’s even the ability to allow them to strut around in most of your unlocked costumes or ride one of your mounts. You’ll be able to create a role for each companion that fits your play style through the use of abilities, and by selecting the gear (with specific Companion traits) that they wear. When the new system launches with The Elder Scrolls Online: Blackwood, players will be able to unlock two unique companions - Bastian Hallix and Mirri Elendis - who can be recruited by completing certain quests in the new chapter. The Companions System adds the ability to recruit an NPC to fight and quest alongside you, and act similarly to another player.
