Heroes

For the heroes featured in Mount&Blade: With Fire & Sword, see Heroes (With Fire & Sword). For the heroes featured in Viking Conquest, see Heroes (Viking Conquest). For the heroes featured in Bannerlord, see Companions (Bannerlord). Heroes or companions are unique troops with individual names, stories, skills, attributes, and equipment (all of which can be chosen by you). Like the player character, monarchs, and vassals, heroes never die and are only knocked unconscious. You can never station them in garrisons. In all games except for Mount and Blade II: Bannerlord, companions cannot be killed.[1] Every Hero likes one other Hero and hates two others (they will either tell after a battle or during the journey) and also likes/dislikes certain actions. Often, they will talk to you when you are doing something which they do not like, such as failing quests or running low on food. Warband brought many improvements to hero interaction. In the original Mount and Blade, there are a lack of conversation options with the only option of checking their opinion and their story. Warband added options such as the ability to send out heroes to check faction integrity or improve the Player's right to rule. For more detailed information on ideal parties and keeping your heroes happy, see hero tactics.

Their locations are random and they will change from time to time, so it is important to check back at taverns regularly. Many of them require money (ranging 100 - 500) before they join your party with 5 companions that will join for free. Regardless of recruitment cost, all require the same wages according to their level. Since they do not have a strict level cap, they can eventually exceed the wages of any other troop in the game once leveled high enough. Departure[] There are several ways to (temporarily) lose a hero: If you voluntarily part ways with a hero (via the dialog option or by not taking them back in after a mission), you can just pick them up again (no recruitment cost). You can ask a Traveler in the tavern for the position of each hero that once was in your group, so it is advisable to recruit them all once and then release them if you cannot use them right away. If you are taken prisoner, you have to wait until you are free. When freed, some heroes might be freed with you, but may also be captured and you will need to see a Ransom Broker to get them free for money (in which case they will come to you within 1-2 days) or have to free them like every other prisoner. If one has escaped on their own, were not captured, or released due to a peace treaty, they can be found in taverns as usual. If you keep heroes with dislikes against other heroes in the same group, those heroes might eventually leave "to go back home" or "settle down". They can not be found via traveler as they do not respawn right away. Instead, it takes several weeks before they respawn, at which point they can be found again. If you have trouble finding them that might have to do with renown. Some companions which left on their own decision will not reappear until your renown exceeds the renown at the time when they left + 100 (avg.). After that a traveller should know the location. If you lend a hero to a lord via the Lend companion quest and that lord acquires a hostile relation with you or swears loyalty to another faction, you won't be able to meet that hero unless several in-game weeks have passed. During that time, you can't find the hero via a traveller. The lost hero will eventually find you on their own. List of Heroes[] Name Primary Skills Friend Enemies Objections Town Conn.
