&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Sidekicks (or companions) can accompany heroes during their nocturnal exploits. A hero can have at most one sidekick active at time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are two types of sidekicks, temporary sidekicks and full-time sidekicks. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Sidekick/companion_(by_source)#Temporary Sidekicks|Temporary sidekicks]]&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
Accompany the hero for a certain amount of time.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
They can be summoned by either using an innate skill, using a summoning item, or acquiring them at a specific location.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If a sidekick is already active, its lifespan can usually be lengthened by repeating the summoning action.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
They can be dismissed from the player details page. Temporary sidekicks&#039; power is independent of the hero&#039;s level.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

----&lt;br /&gt;
Only available after a certain step in the [[All the World&#039;s a Quest, and All the Men and Women Merely Heroes|level 9 quest]].&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Each of them needs to be enabled once, and from then on they can be selected from the [[Sidekick (hideout)|hideout]].&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Once selected, a full-time sidekick will follow the hero for as long as necessary, until it is dismissed (from the hideout as well).&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Full-time sidekicks&#039; power scales with the hero&#039;s level, until some cap is reached. &lt;br /&gt;

----&lt;br /&gt;
All sidekicks carry some benefit, be it damaging opponent, increasing chips drop etc.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The effectiveness of sidekicks can be improved using [[Special abilities#Improved Sidekick Effectiveness|effects and equipment]].&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In addition, [[judo kid gloves‎]] can be equipped, granting the sidekicks additional capabilities.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;Sidekicks (or companions) can accompany heroes during their nocturnal exploits. A hero can have at most one sidekick active at time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are two types of sidekicks, temporary sidekicks and full-time sidekicks. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Sidekick/companion_(by_source)#Temporary Sidekicks|Temporary sidekicks]]&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
Accompany the hero for a certain amount of time.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
They can be summoned by either using an innate skill, using a summoning item, or acquiring them at a specific location.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If a sidekick is already active, its lifespan can usually be lengthened by repeating the summoning action.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
They can be dismissed from the player details page. Temporary sidekicks&#039; power is independent of the hero&#039;s level.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Sidekick/companion_(by_source)#Full-time sidekicks|Full-time sidekicks]]&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
Only available after a certain step in the [[All the World&#039;s a Quest, and All the Men and Women Merely Heroes|level 9 quest]].&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Each of them needs to be enabled once, and from then on they can be selected from the [[Sidekick (hideout)|hideout]].&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Once selected, a full-time sidekick will follow the hero for as long as necessary, until it is dismissed (from the hideout as well).&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Full-time sidekicks&#039; power scales with the hero&#039;s level, until some cap is reached. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Special abilities#Improved Sidekick Effectiveness|Sidekick/companion modifiers]]&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
All sidekicks carry some benefit, be it damaging opponent, increasing chips drop etc.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The effectiveness of sidekicks can be improved using [[Special abilities#Improved Sidekick Effectiveness|effects and equipment]].&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In addition, [[judo kid gloves‎]] can be equipped, granting the sidekicks additional capabilities.&lt;br /&gt;
