Companions
“ | “My heart pounded with anticipation of the fame and glory that lay before me. But first I would need to hire some assistance...” |
Companions or Recruitable Characters will join your party in various ways, most commonly by recruiting them in Paris or in islander villages. Your party can have a maximum of 4 companions in addition to your Leader; any extra characters must be dismissed before moving. (Some special temporary companions are an exception to this.)

Animal Recruits[edit]
Animal Recruits are non-humanoid trek members. They take up a character slot as normal but don't have a Loyalty attribute, and have a single special Equipment slot instead of Hand and Body slots. Unlike with humanoids, you can recruit several animals of the same class in your party.
Pack Animals[edit]
Pack Animals are often selected for their ability to be ridden and/or their increased carrying Capacity
. They have a combined Beast/Pack Animal equipment slot. One pack animal per party can be Mounted
by your Leader using a Saddle (generally occupying 1 Capacity) to reduce travel costs and activate the mount's second die.
They can be obtained in:
- Leader-specific starting parties (Donkey, Horse)
- Tavern (Donkey)
- Villages (Donkey/Horse/Oryx in Drylands/Jungle, Giant Tortoise in Archipelagos, Parasaurolophus in Prehistoric lands)
- Hatched and grown from Mysterious Eggs (Giant Tortoise, Parasaurolophus, Raptor, Stygimoloch)
- Tamed Prey Animals (Oryx)
- Rare variants of Waterfall/Oasis (Red Elk)

Beasts[edit]
Beasts are smaller animals that cannot be ridden or use larger equipment. They provide a second die without requiring anything to activate it, and also a bonus die for specified non-Combat challenges. However they have a Beast equipment slot only, and cannot equip Pack Animal-specific items such as Saddles (unless they are also Pack Animals, such as the Raptor).
