Companions from BioWare RPGs

What this quiz covers

BioWare games are remembered for their companions as much as their main plots, and this quiz is built to celebrate that. Expect questions spanning multiple series and eras, focusing on who joins you, what they’re known for, and how they fit into their teams.

Each question uses a 4-option multiple-choice format with no timer, so you can play at your own pace. Before starting, choose your question count and difficulty - Mixed is ideal if you want both quick wins and tougher lore checks.

Skills you’ll practice

You’ll sharpen character recognition, recall of party roles, and your ability to connect names to factions, species, classes, and signature story beats. The variety also helps train “context memory,” where you identify a companion from a small clue rather than a full biography.

Common pitfalls (and how to avoid them)

Many companions have similar-sounding names, overlapping archetypes, or multiple appearances across titles and expansions. Watch for trick options that are protagonists, temporary NPCs, or non-companion allies who feel like party members.

Difficulty balance and how scoring feels

The Mixed setting blends straightforward identifications with more specific questions, so the challenge ramps naturally without becoming a wall. If you want a smoother run, lower the difficulty; if you’re chasing bragging rights, increase it and keep the full question count for maximum coverage.

• Distinguish true companions from major NPCs and quest givers
• Match companions to their game/series and team role
• Spot faction or species clues that narrow choices fast
• Avoid “same archetype” traps (sniper vs. rogue, mage vs. biotic, etc.)
• Build consistency by replaying with a shorter set, then scaling up
