Multiple Companions/Puppets?
Is this one of those games where you switch between characters or is there options for characters to appear along you and fight with you. I have have AI ally fighting with me rather than direct control them.

You only ever have one of your playable characters on the screen at a time.

But you are always in a party with several characters that you can switch between instantly (presuming they are alive at the time when you want to switch to them...if they are dead, then you can't switch to them until you resurrect them first).

There is no way to have multiple different playable characters on the screen at the same time in this game, nor to make your offscreen characters become AI-controlled companions.

And all of the game's fights and puzzles are balanced around the concept of having only one playable character, with no AI companions, on the screen at a time.

Cool, so I can play the entire game as Evia the Mage?
