[QUOTE="Alex, post: 1826181, member: 18674"] [b]What About Shadow based creatures?[/b] I'm not sure whether having a familiar is a benefit or a hazard from a metagame perspective. I've always looked at familiars purely in terms of roleplaying, but I would agree that if the companion isn't adding to the roleplaying of your charater then it is probably best not to have one. Here's another question concerning Manual of the Planes templates - what level should a familiar with the shadow template be available to players. Seems like that template would be appropriate if your playing an illusionist or some sort of umbral mage. Alex :cool: [/QUOTE]
