I don't think you guys are giving the companions enough credit.
Qyzen: Currently, Qyzen is wearing a highly coordinated outfit called "include all the primary colors". He looks kind of like something my five year old nephew would draw with crayons. I don't know what he's saying most of the time because I'm too drawn to the rainbow that is his armor to read the subtitles. From what I have read, I'm apparently awesome and can take down the most fearsome creatures as Herald. I do like how I keep accumulating sweet titles like Herald, Barsenthor (I should probably be more confident in the spelling of my titles), and Black Bisector.
Tharan: Even though I'm a healing Sage, I decided to roll with Tharan for a while because he has the same beard as me. And nothing says awesome like that beard. Sadly, that was where the similarity ended. Tharan keeps talking about being a pacifist while shooting people; I make sure to take out everything that moves to get that bonus objective.
Holiday: You know how Qyzen looks like the drawing of a five year old boy? Well, if you asked a five year old girl to color something, you'd probably get the all-pink Holiday. I can't really say much more, because I stopped using Tharan before he got the Holiday stun. It's pretty hard to level when you just stand there healing each other.
Zenith: So far I've only met him in cutscenes, but I'm thinking it's probably not a good idea to give him a gun. Basically, the interaction went like this: "Don't shoot that guy! I'm trying to talk to him. Besides, he's not part of the bonus objective!"
Nadia: Also cutscenes only, but I've determined that her dad, while kinda fat, is less crazy than the other ambassadors.
C2-N2: If I knew Bantha ears were so important to crafting I would have collected some on Tatooine.
If you haven't figured it out yet, this post is a joke. A lengthy discussion of Qyzen's color coordinated armor options would not be appreciated.
