So, I got a follower
So my noble character (master class from Green Ronin) has got a follower now. The mini I'm going to use is the jester looking guy here: http://paizo.com/image/product/catalog/RKH/RKHCDCH03_500.jpeg...

Hmm, formatting seems to be an issue with these yucko boards. Anyway I forgot, my cohort will start at 5th level.

A jester? Seems like a figure whose sole purpose is to steal the limelight from others! If you are light in melee crunch, consider giving your aristocrat a bodyguard--probably a single class fighter...

A body guard type is actually close to what I'm thinking. Our party is something of a cobbled together goon-fest. The fairy cleric is an anarchist, infected with "choas" (mutation from Monte Cook...

I would think that a fighter type might be too weak to play that roll given that he will be 5th level in a party of 7th levels pc's. He will not be able to play meat shield effectively and will end up...

I would suggest a rogue/bard. Give him at least 1 level in rogue so he can detect and disable magic traps, then add bard levels for the "buffing" spells and bardic music. Bards get enough skill points...

scout/rogue so he can skirmish as he runs away from monsters and still have lots of skills to drop on lock opening and trappiness.

A bodyguard follower is feasible if you focus on defense--take Combat Reflexes, and have him attack defensively, provide cover for your character, use Aid Another to boost AC, and so forth. He...

I'm slightly confused by this: battle sorcerer fairy cleric wanna be mystic theurge This could be one PC. Class followed by race followed by 2nd class followed by the PrC which the preceding qualifies...

Damien, I like your thinking: "Lets nuke it from orbit, it's the only way to be sure!" lol

Because apparently I don't know how to do paragraph breaks with yuku, those all ran together instead of being listed in a column. PC #1 is a human battle sorcerer. PC #2 is a human noble/fighter, (my...

After visiting Henchman R' Us, I have rudimentary stats for one. I told everyone he was here on a trial basis, but that may or may not be the case. We might have a party member die from a grapple...

Henchmen can be either great asset or they can be discouraged by DMs. They sap the party xp and treasure pools. But they can add flavor and depth to the party.
View ArticleRe: So, I got a follower
Cohorts don't sap xp. I guess I never mentioned he was supposed to be a cohort.
View ArticleRe: So, I got a follower
Dragon Shaman with a Spiked Chain makes a kickass cohort, even several levels below the group.

All it takes is one direct hit from a giant or a minotaur to humble the below APL cohort who wants to play meat shield.
