Yesterday I took my third Imp-side alt through DK, and once again I thought Ladra would make for an interesting companion. Throughout the game, our charcters run into some pretty nifty NPCs -be it in class stories or planet quests- some of which unfortunately (in some case thankfully ) die, in order to move the story along.
Considering some of the duds we get as companions though, I've always wondered how NPC-X* would fit into my characters story, as opposed to the one I got.
The one mentioned above, Ladra, for example: You get a grand total of two conversations with her and, to me anyway, there is more personality in those two conversations, than in 20+ levels of Corso 'Creepy' Riggs.
So, this thread, to sate my curiosity. Which character you encounter on your missions, would you say would make a good companion? For what class? Addition or repacement for extant ones? Or perhaps along the lines of Treek or HK, available to all? Why?
For me, off the top of my head...
Ladra. I think she's be a good candidate for several reasons (and could likely kill several birds in one stone <.<)
Also, the girl you meet in the Smuggler story, who has a history with Risha. Though I doubt she'd work as a Smuggler companion, storywise.
On Tython you get tasked to uncover a romance between padawans...I think the girl -who seems to be the top in that pair- would make for a good late game addition for a Sith
Anyway, just curious.
