Rook is a mage specialising in healing, that is the part of school of Restoration that concerns itself with restoring people's health rather than absorbing it. He is also skilled in Alteration and Alchemy, again for the purposes of protection and healing. He has a shop near Anvil's main gate selling potions and scrolls.
Rook is another myrmidon, and is therefore immortal. Although he is a healer at heart, he is quite effective with Destruction spells too and can hold his own in battle. However, his main concern is for his allies, and he will heal and shield them as necessity demands.
If you wish for Rook to join your party, visit him at his shop and see if there's anything you can do to convince him to leave his home. It seems he's had quite enough of battle al... -
You first meet Selene on the Bloated Float during a rather unexpected voyage. If she survives this encounter, you'll have a chance to demonstrate your good nature and pay off her fine so that she is released from prison. And then... well, it's rather up to you.
Complete the quest "An Unexpected Voyage" and exit the Bloated Float. Once you're outside, you will be prompted about that fine.
If you manage to befriend Selene, take her to the Bloated Float for a round of drinks. See how that goes. What could possibly go wrong?
Selene wears her own set of armour that is being upgraded as she levels up, although it always looks the same. She will wear any other armour as well, if it is better than hers. She also has her Blackwater Blade. She ... -
Scorpio - an elemental sorcerer - Crucible - Shivering Isles
Scorpio made his way to the Shivering Isles from a far away land of Gransys (Dragon's Dogma) where he was cursed to immortality - he was one of the many myrmidons there. He'd seen it all and had enough of it, and so he left (it isn't true that myrmidons have no will of their own). He found the Shivering Isles to be to his liking, and even bought a house in Crucible.
Scorpio is an elemental sorcerer, not just a plain Destruction mage. He brings complex incantations not available from the Mages Guild, but he throws a mean fireball, too. In close quarters however he relies on his axe and Madness armour.
At low levels you may not witness Scorpio's true power because his incantations require a lot of magicka and fatigue to cast - they draw on his endurance as well as... -
Jowan Angwin - a blood mage - Fade walker - Bruma
Jowan got himself into a hot mess back in Ferelden (Dragon Age Origins), so when an opportunity arose to board a ship and sail "elsewhere", he took it without hesitation. The ship was bound for Tamriel, docking in Anvil a few months later. Jowan rattled around Cyrodiil for a bit first, eventually settling down in Bruma where his particular interests in magic were not only not disapproved of, but may be even supported...
Why was the Bruma chapter of the Mages Guild the only one without a specialisation? Which school of magic was recently banned by Arch-Mage Traven? You put two and two together. Perhaps not everyone was willing to give up their life's work at a drop of a hat. Magister Jowan Angwin made friends there.
Jowan has a house in Bruma and a horse at the st... -
Hauk Serck-Hanssen - an Imperial Battlemage - Imperial City
Hauk is a Mages Guild Evoker and an Imperial Battlemage, but he is not a guard and won't arrest you. He is a Nord in his 50s, strong, skilled and good-natured. He resides at the Arcane University, sharing quarters with the other battlemages. You can find him there, or ask around town as he spends time in various places around the Imperial City. His horse is stationed at the Chestnut Stables.
As a battlemage, Hauk is skilled in Blade, Blunt, Heavy Armour and several schools of magic. He is not a skilled marksman, although he will use a bow if it is available. His destruction spells are usually more effective, however. Born under the Lord, he has the Blood of the North healing power but is susceptible to fire through a Trollkin curse.
Hauk has always wanted a house in... -
Geralt of Rivia - a witcher - Bruma
Geralt arrived in Tamriel and is residing in Bruma - it appears that his services are needed in the area to deal with all the ogres and goblins running amok. He is staying at Olav's Tap and Tack.
Geralt brought his own gear which is unique to him. It gets upgraded as he levels up, but always looks the same. He may also choose to wear different armour if it is better than his own. As a witcher, Geralt is skilled with blades and light armour, as well as the schools of magic relevant to witcher signs - a set of spells exclusive to witchers. They too come in different grades, becoming stronger as Geralt levels up. Geralt's horse Roach is stationed in the Bruma stables.
This companion is based on Witcher in Cyrodiil - a mod that implements all the witcher functionalit... -
Dylan - a Mazken warrior - Passwall - Shivering Isles
Disenchanted with the Mazken order, Dylan walks into Passwall once the Gatekeeper has been killed. The women will have you believe that the male Dark Seducers are weak and useless... Dylan had enough of that nonsense. He is making a life for himself, and could use a bit of adventure in it.
Dylan is a warrior skilled with all kinds of weapons, light armour and restoration. He wears Mazken armour that is upgraded as he levels up - the same as with his female counterparts. He is aligned with Dementia but will travel in Mania too, if needed. He has a house in Passwall, he patrols the Fringe and keeps grummites under control. He does not leave the Shivering Isles. You can write a letter to him asking to meet you in Crucible, but he won't be hanging around Bliss.

Garrus Darelliun - a knight - Captain of the City Guard in Cheydinhal
Garrus starts out as the second in command in the City Guard of Cheydinhal. He does not become your potential companion until he gets promoted to Captain, that is until you complete the Corruption and Conscience quest to his satisfaction. If he approves of your choices, he gets the promotion and someone else is assigned to guard the throne room all day long. Garrus then takes over the Captain's duties and will be happy to join you on your adventures too. Although he is officially a guard, he won't arrest you, but it's best not to let him see you committing crimes.
Garrus has a horse stationed at the Cheydinhal stables, he resides in the City Guard barracks where he gets to use the Captain's room, according to his rank.
Born under the Atronach, Garrus can absorb s... -
Yennefer Vengerberg - a sorceress - Skingrad
Mistress Yennefer Vengerberg is a new adviser to Count Janus Hassildor of Skingrad. She is staying at Castle Skingrad. Come to the castle or talk to people in town to find out how you can meet her. Will she give up her work to accompany you on your adventures? It's up to you to find out. Perhaps you need to help her with something first.
Yennefer is skilled in several schools of magic and possesses unique spells. She will be glad to teach them to you once you are skilled enough. Yennefer is also skilled with a blade and light armour. She wears her own unique gown in black and white (naturally) and has a unique set of armour that is being upgraded as she levels up. She will wear any other armour however, if it is better than her own.
Yennefer has a horse statio...
