DragonLance:The Companions

In the Dragon Lance Series The Companions refers to the six veteran adventurers who regroup in Solace starting the original trilogy called "the Chronicles" by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman.

They Companions are:
 * Tanthalas "Tanis" Half-Elven, ranger
 * Flint Fireforge, dwarf-fighter and metal smith
 * Tasslehoff Burrfoot, Kender - no specific skill (maybe thief)
 * Sturm Brightblade, Human - knight
 * Caramon, human-fighter
 * Raistlin Majere, human-mage

Also, mentioned as an absent member of "the Companions" is Kitiara Uth Matar, but in the original Chronicles Trilogy, she becomes an antithesis of the party and so is not normally considered a part.
