I'm considering introducing a wise cracking sidekick for my group to interact with.
Introducing Austin, the cat sized telepathic scorpion with the devil-may-are attitude!
The mechanics would be similar to a beast companion, with Austin having no actions of his own, but any player being able to expend actions to have Austin utilise a power.
Austin, lvl 13 Familiar
Size: Tiny
Speed 6, swim 6
Ac: 27, fort 25, ref 27, will 25
Hit points 84 surges 2
Standard Actions
Pinch (at will)
Melle 1, one creature, +16 vs reflex, hit: Target is knocked prone.
Move Actions
Can't catch me! (Encounter)
Melle 1, one creature, +16 vs will, hit: Austin shifts 6 squares plling the target one square with each shift. miss: Austin shifts 6 squares.
Minor Actions
Check out this claw stand! (encounter)
Close burst 1, targets enemies, +16 vs will, Hit: target grants combat advantage until the end of it's next turn.
:melle: Crawl all over you (encounter)
Melle 1, one creature, +16 vs reflex, hit: remove Austin from the battlefield. Target has a -2 penalty to attack rolls and grants combat advantage (save ends both). Aftereffect: return Austin to the battlefield in a square adjacent to the target.
str: 12 Dex 14 Wis 10
Con 12 Int 18 Cha 14
Love to hear feedback on both the mechanics and the concept - would having something like this annoy the hell out of you?
