At 15th level my DM suggested I take Leadership as my feat. I chose a wizard/loremaster as my cohort, and together we developed a backstory that pretty much designed her as an artificer. She doesn't adventure with my group, but does cast extended spells before we set out, and works on creating magic items while we're gone. The cohort was the easy part.
Now we're faced with tackling the followers. This seems a bit harder to sort out. I'm not sure if it would be appropriate to have them all appear out of nowhere, or slowly amass out of nowhere, and going out and recruiting them one by one (I'm alotted nearly 50) seems to be tedious and not likely to be fun for the rest of the group.
I know there's no RAW answer for this, but if there are any ideas that might help my DM or ideas I can use in-game, they would all be appreciated.
For reference, my character is a Half Earth Elemental, Half Elven Barbarian/Fighter type. He's kind of legendary. He was encased in lava for the past 700 years, immediately following a great battle against a terrible evil. However, he's currently living in seclusion, because an evil magiocracy has taken control of the kingdom (making public recruiting extremely problematic). He currently has what could be considerred a hidden "Keep" that he shares with his group, which houses the 5 followers he has, so far.
