[QUOTE="Lord Pendragon, post: 807385, member: 707"] This thread has brought up things I had never thought of before. And I have to admit that my roleplayer and powergamer halves are now in conflict. I like the heavy warhorse from a flavor standpoint. It fits my idea of a "knight in shining armour" better than any of the others. On the other hand, Rackhir makes a convincing argument for the wolf and the griffon. I think that a great deal of this is going to depend on how my DM rules on a couple of issues. 1. Do Paladin bonus HD count toward monster advancement and the size increase for the griffon? (Is this unbalanced or reasonable? Would a huge griffon be more deadly than, say, the dragon that could be gained at an equal level?) 2. Is it possible to combine a Mount and a Cohort, and can the cohort "levels" be used to "purchase" a template for the mount? Thus creating something like a half-celestial griffon or half-celestial celestial heavy warhorse (I know that sounds funky, but technically since a "celestial" creature is merely a beast living on the Outer Planes, it should be logically feasible.) I had no idea that the Collar of Resistance was so cheap for a +5. I know what my paladin's going to save up for! :D BTW, on a related topic, are there any animals that are particularly connected with Pelor? My paladin is one of his faithful, though none of the beasts on any of the lists seem particularly Pelor-ish. If you catch my drift. ;) [edit] And this may be a dumb question, but: does Pelor exist in the Forgotten Realms? This is my first Realms character, and I chose Pelor without questioning if he existed in both settings. Perhaps I'll have to go with Lathander? [/edit] [/QUOTE]
