[QUOTE="Omegaxicor, post: 6303113, member: 95351"] I want to make a companion to the party, essentially it is a guide, I was thinking of a Slime from Dragon Warrior, for those who haven't played it they are weak Ooze type creatures, friendly but with limited Fire magic. I have no idea how to stat it since it will advance with the general level of the party, I don't want it to be a powerful combatant but it will have to fight and will probably be Small in size and have a Headbutt or Slam attack, it isn't mindless but it isn't smart, it has the following traits except that it isn't mindless or blind: (Copied from dandwiki.com) I know that the rules don't usually allow for Ooze [animal] companions but I prefer the style of the Dragon Warrior Slime so I was wondering how I stat it and how I advance it, I wasn't planning on evolving it to Liquid/King/Behemoth slimes but it that works then all the better. Thanks in advance for any help on such an unusual request :) EDIT: [URL]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slime_(Dragon_Quest)[/URL] EDIT 2: This is my first draft, it contains the Armour Health Variant which messes with the AC math, but it is entirely open to improvement and I would still like to know how to advance the monster as the party level.
