Rook will be joined in their battle against corrupt Elven gods by seven compelling companions, each from a notable faction in Dragon Age lore. Along with their individual storylines and motivations, companions Bellara, Davrin, Emmrich, Harding, Lucanis, Neve, and Taash bring unique combat skills and equipment that Rook must strategically use in the fight for Thedas's future.
