Other than that, I don't have any real wants as far as a companion is concerned, other than a good-looking male human or elf who can make me forget Fennorian.
Edit: actually one BIG want is that these companions don't keep uttering the same inane dialogue over and over and over...

For me: I don't want a humanoid NPC following me around. That is something that I am not interested in at all. But, I would warm up to this idea if the companion could be some sort of sentient creature type.
Some ideas:
- A hopeful squire from the Blackfeather Court with ambitions of being a knight. The Duke of Crows has decided to award you your own loyal vassal. He can use melee attacks and be fitted for DPS or tanking. Unerringly loyal to you, but very plucky and sassy. Perhaps he wears something very silly on his head as a helmet.
- An Alfiq mage, similar to Sereyne. Perhaps you rescue her from an embarrassing situation (Sereyne speaks of a friend who has a tendency to get carried off in sacks.). Can be fitted as a healer or DPS. Sweet as pie, dulcet little kitty voice, but no fool or pushover.
- A dire wolf. It would be better if this one didn't speak. You could suppose if you must that this is the transformed spirit of some Bosmer, or such like, but just a loyal pupper would be fine for me. I see this being a utility companion, applying taunts, snares, and other kinds of CC. Perhaps the pup's eyes begin to glow and the fur color changes as it levels up.
- A seeker, sent to you by the Daedric prince Hermeaus Mora. Doesn't have intelligible dialogue but chortles and speaks in tongues. Can be fitted to do anything because that thing does whatever it wants.

- Undead/zombie/skeleton. Mostly to fulfill my necromancer dream. Since they don’t have a melee pet this could potentially fix that. They don’t even need to speak. Just grunt or moan from time to time.
- Dremora Lord. This would especially make my pet sorc happy. He doesn’t even need to hold a conversation either. Just yell "I smell weakness..."
"A challenger is near!", "Another who seeks Death!" when we enter combat.
- A werewolf companion. For those moments when I just want to do the new quest on my werewolf tank main or world bosses. Because he takes a while to kill things since he’s in tank gear and would keep me from having to carry DPS gear on my tank just for questing.
- A vampire thrall. No reason. Just want one for my vampires.
-Animal companions. For those who want something other than the bear we currently have on our wardens. Or at least let me change my bear out for something else. Heck, it can still be a gear just change the skin. Those wood spriggan bears are nice, or the lizard bears from Blackmarsh would even do the job.
- Our alts characters. This is a no brainer. Allow us to bring our other characters with us. Or at the very least allow us to customize them with race and armor choices as prevent everyone from having to see the same characters everywhere.
