Companion

Companions are a new addition to the Funkoverse and may be used by a player instead of an item! Companions are always paired with a character and provide a player with an ally that can do a limited number of actions.

COMPANION SETUP
When playing with a companion, the companion is always paired with a character on your team. Attach the companion to a character by placing the companion card below that character’s character card. At the beginning of the game, and whenever a companion shifts off the cooldown track, place the companion token in your starting area.

COMPANION RULES
Companions follow the same rules for adjacency, movement, and what they can see as characters. When a character with an attached companion takes their turn, the attached companion may also do one of the actions listed on the companion’s card.

Additionally, a character with an attached companion may forfeit any number of their actions on their turn to allow their attached companion to do that many actions, selected from the actions listed on that companion’s card. This may be done while the character is knocked down, and even while the character is on the cooldown track!

When a companion is challenged and loses, remove it from the board and place it on the 1 of its owner’s cooldown track. Players do not gain points from challenging companions. For the purposes of gaining points, when a companion knocks out a rival, credit the knockout to the character the companion is attached to.
