COMPANIONS

It's dangerous to go alone, take this!
A Companions section. You have one free companion from your chosen faction, and one free that shares the same witch type as you (Either Race or Class). Companions have 4 main statistics giving a rough idea of their general impact in a group dynamic, except the POWER stat, which primarily serves to give free floating Power points to spend to customize your companion's abilities on top of the default abilities they come with. Beyond that, interactions are inferred in how you interpret their personality and how different stats play out in relation to it and others. You can buy additional companions using Reward Points, listed to the left of their name. A + indicates they have their Type Perk, take your pick.

Stat Colors

• Black is Impaired.
• Red is Lacking.

You can spend your own Power on behalf of a member if you so choose.

Really, don't stress the details too much and feel free to fill in the blanks. I do what I can to provide a reasonable summary of an array of characters, but it's up to you to interpret it as you will.

"Has anyone seen Rachel around? We have a double date in 20 minutes and she totally vanished." - An Arcadian student.

Rachel is very introverted and socially awkward, she grew up largely alone without a lot of interaction, so other people may as well be aliens for her and she freaks out about saying the wrong thing, but once she makes real friends she cares for them a lot and can find her stride.

Anne is a bit of an oddball. Rather than simply being introverted, she's pretty much outright antisocial seeing no need or reason to bother and actively prefers keeping a smaller friendgroup, but she tries to do right by those that do make that cut.

She has a calm reserved intelligence about the way she carries herself in a mature manner that suggests a lot of life experience that has seen some of the worst life has to offer, but also some of the best, and she appreciates what she can.

Tess is a bit of a nonviolent delinquent. She first awakened as a witch out of anger when she inadvertently hexed her human school bully into a slug, being a Warlock rather than an Academic, things are more instinctual and primal for her rather than well understood, and is somewhat easily annoyed, can trigger reactionary hexes with stray impulses, giving her a bad rep, but is cunning and personable when she wants to be and gets along when she needs to.
