    I don't think pre-existing characters would be made into Companions. Half of the names listed here are already in a different state of being if you played through Auridon, Craglorn, Imperial City and the Fighters Guild questlines.

    Where is the "Other" or "None of them" option?

    If pre-existing NPCs would ever become available as companions I'd want either Naryu Virian, Ashur or the werewolf guy from the Markarth DLC.

      Sir Cadwell
      Of those listed I’d like Cadwell. To be true to character I think he should randomly despawn and not be able to be summoned for a time.

      None of the above. This is kind of an odd selection of characters chosen overall. Kinlady estre in particular is an odd choice considering she's the main antagonist in auridon's story and she doesn't survive us getting involved there.

      Personally I prefer the new characters they come up with for companions.

      There really should be a none of the above option as I doubt they'll do pre-existing characters. Also, I wouldn't a companion that was an enemy of ours before they were killed.

      If they were to do it though, I'd pick Fennorian

      None of course, since we were told that companions will never be characters that already exist in the game. They are all new NPCs.

      I am not sure how this poll was actually intended, as OP did not clarify, but considering that companions have all been original characters (and presumably will continue to be such), and, as some others here have pointed out, some of the poll options are canonically deceased, I choose to read this as a choice of archetype rather than the specific NPC.

      Therefore, I choose Lyranth. I find her absolutely hilarious, and a character with similarly dry demeanour and ambiguous intentions could make for a fantastic companion. <3

      Same way the dead among the 5 Companions do I presume?

      This. It m makes no sense to have notable characters as companions. Imagine having Stibons as one's companion while doing a quest involving Stibons.

      I voted Fennorian, because he is, by far, one of my very favorite characters- but I'd also love to have Cadwell.

      Barring that, I'd LOVE to have Robbie Daymond voice a companion- the man is incredibly talented. Every role he has voiced in ESO sounds different.

      I could only dream of a companion voiced by John Cleese. Would love to have his wit and masterful intelligence written into a companion- especially if he were allowed to write some of the dialouge. Can you imagine an assassin companion written by him? The black humor that man could produce...

      I wouldn't like pre-existing NPCs as companions (though I do love some of the characters the Vestige has met over the years), because it wouldn't go well with their backstories and how their relationships with the Vestige has been so far. Also I'd rather think of them having their own separate adventures and goals than to be summoned whenever we wish, and I'm happy to meet them only whenever our paths coincide. I think the companions being completely new characters and their life taking a turning point after meeting the Vestige works better story-wise.

      I dont want any of the above as a companion, I'd like a new character. Of the list above though Sir Cadwell and Fennorian would be the most fun characters. Stuga as long as she wasn't excessively annoying.
