[QUOTE="jkason, post: 6167218, member: 2710"] I haven't gone near Ultimate Campaign yet, myself. I wasn't sure it would apply since the marketing copy, at least, seemed to suggest most of it would be geared toward long range, specific campaigns, which doesn't work really well in LPF. Likewise I'd not been considering Mythic, since I thought that was for ridiculous-level play. Though as SK points out, the way some of the more active DMs can amass DMC... ;) [MENTION=74232]elecgraystone[/MENTION], on the matter of Bison, I think d20pfsrd may be listing some third party or supplemental stats in that section. I can't seem to find any references to Bison as mounts outside the Beast Rider archetype in the PRD proper, and the only references for buying anything like it are for a Yak, which is explicitly a pack, not a riding, animal. I'm not sure I'm especially inclined to purchase-able exotic mounts in general, though, without some pretty compelling story / background involved. I'd also expect more than a few DM's to stack the exotic race + exotic mount into a distinct disadvantage when you were trying to interact with people. You're likely to have a difficult time getting people to do more than stare or scurry away from the sight of such a pairing. And those who don't may be inclined to try to steal your mount when you inevitably have to leave it stabled to enter a building, since as noted, it's so exotic. Since I think you mentioned in another thread that you wanted to get a better idea of LPF playstyle, it might be better to go with something simpler for your first character, then you can decide if a more exotic concept 'feels' right for a second character after you've had a bit of a run?
