A Follower is similar to a [[mercenary]] in [[Diablo II]], although only available when playing solo. They have storyline elements, but are designed not to 'outshine' the hero. Blizzard initially intended followers to be available in Normal only, but after feedback they will be available in all difficulty levels.
