On your adventures, a special character called a sidekick can be incorporated into a group at the party’s inception or a sidekick might join them during the campaign. For example, the characters might meet a villager, an animal, or another creature, forge a friendship, and invite the creature to join them on their adventures.
For the sake of simplicity, you will find the stat blocks from level 1 to 6 for four types of sidekicks in this booklet:
Expert, an agile and exceedingly helpful jack-of-all-trades
Spellcaster (Healer), a magic-user who can heal and protect you and your allies
Spellcaster (Mage), a magic-user who can harm your foes
Warrior, a martial companion who specializes in striking your foes or defending you and your allies
