Dragon Age: Inquisition is the third game within the Dragon Age franchise by Bioware. The game follows the player character, the Inquisitor (one of BioWare's best heroes), as they work with others to save Thedas and close a mysterious green tear that has appeared in the sky.

While the game is pretty big, the Inquisitior won't have to do things alone. In fact, they will have an entire group of people behind them, ready to help out whenever they are needed. Here's all the companions (and advisors) that are recruitable in the game and how to recruit them.
