He (She?) is not the kind of person that people necessarily flock to; unlike the Paladin who attracts people just by strolling down the street. Becoming a leader will be a more difficult journey for you. The benefits of the feat will come at a slower progression for you. If you still want to continue with taking the feat here's how it will work.Because of your great intellect and the contacts that you have made within the community of wizards you have managed to attract Horatio (Wizard X). He has come to learn from you. He is your cohort. Obviously, there would be more role-playing involved than this but, whatever, it works as an example. As for other followers - they will take time to acquire. You will need to do some role-playing to acquire them. Perhaps have your character take some time in game to develop a magic theorem or formula, write a paper, engage other wizards in Dragon Chess, debate philosophical ideas, etc. You have already laid out the in-game background information as to why you should not attract followers - take some time to lay down some in-game background info as to why you should attract followers. It sounds like, from your post, that your DM is looking for justification. I may be wrong - but, that is my take on it.</blockquote>
