Help - I need a new disposable friend.

Hmm. Let the pixie take paladin levels and ask your DM for the Mount abilities ?

But I guess the DM will NPC your rider then ... "Into battle!"

More likely to dismiss me up to the celestial heavens and take up a new career as a baker... I might get to pull the delivery cart, if I'm really lucky.

What better than have your cohort be a true scoundrel? Your cleric can be tasked to convert him. Heh heh.

--Flexible skills to act as a face man, a mechanic, a survivalist, a know-it-all, a seducer, or a merc.
--The Feats and BAB to be competent in combat.
--Spells to add a touch of oomph when you really need it.

If your DM runs this guy, he will be no end of RP trouble for you. Until, that is, when he dies in Rappan Athuk.
