Followers
Source Battlecry! pg. 78
A follower is an NPC who accompanies and assists you for an extended period of time, perhaps even an entire campaign. You can gain a follower by taking the captain archetype. Followers are companions who rely upon you for direction in combat; they have the minion trait. You can have a follower and a familiar or pet, but you can't have a follower if you already have an animal companion or another companion that prevents you from having an animal companion.
