An Animal Sidekick

[furian]

The title said it all,

(1. I would love to see daimonds, monkeys, eagles, owls, rats, cats, dogs, bats, dophins. The player would have a better choice of daimonds depending on it's lvl.

(2. When and or if they do implament jungles and dense patches of wildlife, I would like to see some tree creatures, tigers, panthers, undead monkey (no joke...) and other creatures.

Yes i have always thought that animal taming would be a big boost for HZ, its probably a big implemntation job though unfortunately, but eh they arent gonna get anywhere if they only stick to simple things = P

As far as more new animals, i totally agree, especially the undead monkies!

An excellent idea for Rangers and Druids (nature themed) and Mages (Wizards, Conjurers) only. Would be consistent with animal companions for "nature lovers" in other games - WOW, NWN - and magical familiars.

However, due to multiclassing . . . well seems all would qualify. That doesn't seem right. Perhaps as a reward to minimal multiclassing as the characters are more "nature" or "arcane" focused. Now that would work.

you could set the familiars to be non-masterable so they could only summon the creature when in that school

Maybe, I thought it could be givin to players at lvl 1 and you can change it, then when you reach lvl 30, you have to chose what it will be for the rest of your game. Sweet...
