Rather, they become lords of the new 'original' faction led by the new monarch. For this reason, beware of turning companions into lords during a claimant quest as they do not remain 'yours' when the original faction is defeated. In Warband, you also lose all the abilities associated with being a ruler such as assigning fiefs or sending emissaries. Mount & Blade 2: Bannerlord companions are the backbone of any party. Once you eliminate the original faction, your rebel faction becomes the 'original' faction and you become the marshall of the new king or queen (permanently in classic you can step down, but it can never be taken from you). It is never stated in-game who should be the rightful ruler of each faction - it is up to the player to decide. Generally, the current sovereigns justify their right to rule with practical arguments (such as that the kingdom is better off under their rule), while the claimants justify their right to rule based on law or technicality (such as where their lineage places them in the traditional line of succession to the throne). Both the Claimant and the current leader have good reason for supporting their right to rule. Talking to the current leaders of each faction, you can ask for their side of the story. Such as: The Latin Empire's vassals are bad relations with Emperor Baldwin II of Courtenay which caused Emperor Angelo rise to power and become the Empire of Aegean. If you are not the side with the claimant, with a monarch in bad relations with it's vassals, they will turned against the monarch and joined the claimant side. Companions can be found in the Taverns located in.

Companions have two benefits over normal troops: they are fully customizable, and will not die, instead getting knocked unconcious. These Companions will form part of your party and will gain experience as you progress in the game. Once joined a claimant's cause, the claimant will be the ruler of the rebel and will join player's party while player will become the first vassal and the marshal of the claimant's faction: ' Rebels'. Just as in Mount and Blade: Warband it is possible to collect a number of Companions to help you in your quest. The requirement of joining a claimant is the same as monarchs, player must have required enough renown first (at least 200 renown). Player is the first person who can decided whether to help the claimant or not. Like becoming a vassal of a faction, the claimant also seek help from capable warriors.
