Henchman

Henchmen are computer-controlled characters that you may elect to enlist in your party once you've left Pre-Searing Ascalon. Their skills and attributes grow with their levels as you progress through the game.


 * Henchmen take a share of the loot that is dropped.
 * Henchmen will generally attack whatever the party leader is attacking.
 * Each henchman has at least a Signet of Resurrection and can use it on players although they typically will not revive anyone while engaged.
