Ive watched the same video, the companion is Anguy he has obviously changed the name in the troops.txt file and then exported the character and imported again with a different name, as for the dialogue im not sure how he changed this but probably editing certain dialogue files in the module folder
Ah I see, well it was definitely simple of me to think it was part of the mod. The guy was even bigger a noob than I am at this game but he does know how to mod somethings it seems. It did cross my mind it was Anguy, but the modified dialogue, the proficiency stats also different, slightly, it didn't occur me he would've modded the mod for this. It's also ironic (I'm doing a reread of the books, and Anguy is mentioned to be a young boy), that he would choose this character to be his "father" in his RP playthrough.
Thank you everyone for clarifying this.

Idk, but that person definitely had a companion who is your character's father appear, even had custom dialogues, so it wasn't some random editing of existing companions. I do think this is a secret companion of some sort, wether it needs a specific background to appear (like the direwolf or giant) is something I don't know.
I've played most cultures to day 300 minimum and never found a father companion.

Idk if this requires some specific character set up, or if it is a generic feature in the mod. Seems like a decent companion to recruit, one that'll likely cause no compatibility issues with whoever else you hire.
