Companions are playable characters who can join and fight alongside the player in Baldur's Gate 3. Each has their own motivations, personalities, and perspectives.
Many companions can be Romanced. If a companion dislikes the player's actions enough, they may leave the party or even try to kill the player.
Since version 1.0 the default Class of Companions can be changed. Narratively, however, for story purposes the game still acts as if they have their original Class.

Origin Companions
Origin Companions are playable characters with rich backgrounds and ties to the world. Each origin can be played as a player character instead of making a custom character. Origin companions can be recruited shortly after completing the Prologue. See each companion page for recruitment details.
Shadowheart
Loyal Warrior
Half-Elf Cleric
Standard Companions
Note: These companions are not available in Early Access.
Temporary Companions
There are also temporary companions during your adventure. These characters can be recruited into the player’s party during quests or through world interactions.
Unlike Camp Followers, temporary companions are able to join the player’s party and some can become a temporary playable character.
