| − | ''' | + | '''Native companions''' can be recruited by request to the Ruler of a [[Village]], which usually requires 3 [[Standing]]. They can also join through various random events, and can be hired from wandering [[Exposition Recruiter]]s. Some [[village quests]] involve escorting a native who joins your party temporarily without taking up a character slot. |
| − | + | Natives hired from villages have a [[Local]] attribute that makes them reluctant to follow you after a trek. Keeping them will require a successful [[Understanding Challenge]] at the end of the trek, which will clear the attribute. | |

One pack animal per party can be ridden by your Leader using a [[Saddle]] (occupying 1 Capacity) to reduce travel costs and activate their second die.
