Companions in Divinity: Original Sin 2 play a very important role as they add variety to the gameplay and help out during battles. Each companion has unique talents, its own history, dialog threads.
In total, you can find 6 companions in the game, but only 4 of them can be in your group. You can choose them based on personal preferences, each will be useful in its own way.
The Red Prince
Initially, the Red Prince is a Warrior who is able to knock out enemies, as well as strengthen the physical armor of allies or himself using the Fortify geomancy skill.
Racial abilities: the Demonic sign that draws out the enemy’s magic armor, which will require the resources of the Source (you will find it after), and the Dragon’s Flame – a kind of fireball in the area, igniting opponents and causing them magical damage.
In short, the story of the Red Prince is as follows: he is the heir to the ancient empire of lizards, which is now in conflict with the Divine Order of people, headed by Bishop Alexander.
For communication with demons, the prince was expelled from his state and deprived of all the rights to the throne. Moreover, in order to eliminate the potential threat, the House of Shadows sent hired assassins after him, who regularly attempt to assassinate him. Now the Red Prince intends to return what belongs to him by right, and you are free to help him in this difficult matter.
In what situations should I take The Red Prince?
1. Take Red Prince if you need a hero, who deals good physical damage. Since this character is a fighter, he has good physique and strength, which is also very useful for the team. Start the battle with skills: battle stomp, bouncing shield, and fortification.
2. You can make a magician out of the Red Prince, but still he will show himself better in close combat.
3. If you decide to make a magician out of him, then this hero has a special source of the demonic gaze skill. This skill drains the enemy’s magical defense and transfers it to the Prince, which is a big bonus.
4. The Red Prince also has good resistance to the elements, or rather to fire and poison. Moreover, it has a fiery breath that can set objects on fire. So grab it if you have problems defending against the elements or want to set things on fire.

Sebilla will stand in ambush before you, watching Stingtail. When you interrupt her, she will put a needle to your throat and threaten to kill you. Try to calm her down and offer her help to calm down and then agree to join your group.
Sebilla’s story is simple: in the past she was caught by some kind of lizard that kept her in slavery for many years. At one point, the elf managed to break free, and now she knows nothing but satisfaction of her anger, and seeks nothing but revenge. Sibylla wants to finish off her former master, in which the hand of her faithful comrade will come in handy.

Sebille — in order to choose this elf as a companion, you need to go to the southern gate of Fort Joy. On the way, you will find Stingtail Camp, near the boat wreckage and Sebille.
