[QUOTE="Rae ArdGaoth, post: 3536352, member: 21064"] How exactly are cohorts supposed to be awarded treasure? 2000gp seems like an awfully paltry amount for a L6 character. You're right, 2 levels is a significant handicap. Also, Hogarth is a L6 cleric on an adventure filled with mostly... L6'ers, right? So he's more likely to live than a wizard. I admit, I am being swayed to your side. So are you thinking 30, or 28? Personally, I think if we do it, we should do it all the way, so 30. Like I said, the most important thing is to have fun. I want Vanitri to be able to start his Free Folk caravan, and I don't want Bront to feel discouraged from developing his character. However, I don't want his fun to come at the expense of another players'. So let's make it very clear to DM's and PC's that cohorts are meant to be supplements to PC's, not PC's in their own right. A DM or another Player who feels that a cohort is taking too much stage time should feel comfortable in asking the Leader's Player to back off a bit. I definitely don't want to make it a rule, but I'll strongly suggest that the terms of Leadership and the cohort be addressed at the beginning of any adventure with a Leader PC. [/QUOTE]
