huang 133 Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Another option is that she could be a Calisca-type character, recruitable for a brief mission or section but otherwise not really a sidekick/companion? Good idea, they are certainly doing a tutorial/prologue part again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well, our Watchers will have to learn the ropes when it comes to ship owning & crew commanding, so I'm gonna guess she'll be a seafaring mentor of sorts Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rjshae 9,372 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 https://pillarsofeternity.gamepedia.com/Mirke New portrait in the game's companion portrait directory. wow that's an beauty orlan there. i really hope she's a fully companion.. or being made into one at least in the expansion DLC. Forget it, man. You'd just end up with fleas, and then you'd have to delouse the entire ship. 1 Quote "It has just been discovered that research causes cancer in rats."

Murp 219 Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 https://pillarsofeternity.gamepedia.com/Mirke New portrait in the game's companion portrait directory. She looks like if Kristen Schaal had full body Gangrene 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gary1986 142 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Now that the game is out, it seems a good idea to bump this and ask, is she recruitable as a sidekick? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Starwars 1,315 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 No idea if she is recruitable but after meeting her, she is kinda the best character in the game. 1 Quote Listen to my home-made recordings (some original songs, some not): http://www.youtube.c...low=grid&view=0 Link to post Share on other sites
Wormerine 4,349 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Doesn't seem so. Just an NPC in one of the quests. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aramintai 1,881 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 People just assumed she was a sidekick because her portrait in the beta wasn't simply watercolored like the rest of the npcs but was normal like with companions. But it turns out that there are other such normal portraits of other npcs as well. My guess is the artist created normal portraits first (perhaps only for important npcs) and then redrew them as watercolored and then somebody forgot to remove the normal ones.

Karkarov 3,693 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 She is a hilariously cool designed character who serves no purpose at all! Okay that isn't true. She is a potential important NPC during one major side quest, think something equivalent to like Raedric's Hold. But yeah, she has an incredibly well designed portrait for a character that is this minor. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
algroth 3,301 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 (edited) And here I was wondering if she'd be recruitable in any way. She's awesome, and I'm hoping we'll get to add her later on to the crew at least. But yeah, if not, it'll be a bit of a shame - wasted potential and all that. ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ OBSIDIAN PLS ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ Edited May 13, 2018 by algroth Quote My Twitch channel: https://www.twitch.tv/alephg Currently playing: Fallout 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Zap Gun For Hire 464 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 She's not recruitable. She has no dialogue for joining in the stringtables and I unlocked both the companion and sidekick achievements without her in the party. She's 'just' a cool and memorable NPC. Which isn't a bad thing, I'll point out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Crucis 546 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I haven't gotten to where Mirke is in the game yet, but it really seems like a shame for such a nice portrait to be wasted on a minor NPC. It would be nice if they could do something more with this portrait. Maybe use it for a new Companion or Sidekick in one of the DLCs. Or if not that, just rename the portrait files and put them in with the other player-usable portraits. It's a shame because the gamepedia POE2 wiki listed her as a sidekick prior to release and I was looking forward to using her in a party. So I guess that I'm hoping that maybe she ends up getting upgraded to Companion or Sidekick in one of the DLCs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BrokenMask 182 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 My guess is that she was supposed to be the sidekick if Ydwin became companion character <_< I mean, to be honest, Ydwin is clearly meant to be more important character than she ends up playing considering ending of the game and her first conversation Quote Link to post Share on other sites
InsaneCommander 2,813 Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 She will be available as a new sidekick next week: https://twitter.com/WorldofEternity/status/996500658567053312 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers Little birds talk about Monk, or Monk/Rogue, or Monk/FIghter But it may be not true. Now the better question: Why is Mirke?
