[QUOTE="sckeener, post: 3430046, member: 8801"] Argh...where to start.... Two concepts from one of my past DMs. One is Undead Servants and the other is Binder Stones. Binder Stones were basically Monster Summon X where it always returned the same monster and would stay as long as owner of the binder stone wanted. Undead Servants were basically ghouls from Vampire. which leads me to the following companions as examples (there are plenty of others from that world) Lissa, an undead servant pain* elementalist A body guard...basically a cohort before there was a leadership feat. I remember once when the game had gotten very high in level, she started summoning and didn't stop...we had so many monsters to run in that game that we started taking over the kingdom....ah pillaging...good memories. Cherise, a bound pleasure* elemental Bound to a binder stone she kept my character's children sane. My character wasn't around enough for the kids and she managed to help them grow up without hating me. She came in very useful for diplomatic missions since she could be any sex or race... *pain and pleasure were elements in that world...it was based on an old Dragon magazine (I think issue #24) The chief attack of the elementals was a ray of pleasure or pain...both incapacitated the victims.
