[QUOTE="Rapida, post: 2377201, member: 30079"] Hello I seek seom help in a small problem I have. The problem being that I only have 3 players, and I was planning on taking them through CotSQ. Since I don't want to weaken every encounter they meet I figured I needed to give them some help. Since I can't find another player in this small town I wanted to give them an npc ally in game. The problem with that is I can't be bothered to roleplay it and the npcs they meet. Plus my players are prone to take any advice a npc party member gives them as the dm telling them waht to do. I don't like that so I decided to give them a construct npc. That is the problem though I'm not sure how to balance it. I thought maybe I could give them a level 8 fighter warforged (I would call it a lesser shield guardian). Then give it the wealth of a level 8 npc fighter. Then give the control of it to the wizard player, but let any of them control it in combat. The reason I posted was to get any advice on an alternative situation. Any advice? oh yeah sorry if my thoughts came out garbled, my mind is a chaotic place and all of this came directly from it without me organizing it (good luck ;)) [/QUOTE]
