Q52 · Chapter 07 · Companions & rescues

Care between runs

How much care should companions need outside combat?

Partial

The direction

Companions should have some upkeep outside combat. The user wants the relationship to require care, but the exact system is not designed yet and should avoid becoming tedious maintenance.

Recorded as: Partial

The original question’s prompt

Cosmetic interaction, optional bonuses, meaningful training, daily needs, or none?

Examples in a prompt are not decisions unless the answer chooses them.

Still to decide in this chapter

Duplicate species, release/replacement mechanics and the form of companion upkeep are undecided. Habitats are deferred; bond capacity is enough for now.
